Hi idhk7737.
A vegan diet may not necessarily be the best option for Alzheimer's
for the following reasons:
1. There may not be enough glucagon production and too much insulin release, depending the exact composition of the diet.
2. Excess of carbs may eventually lead to high insulin excretion, insulin resistance leading to diabetes potentially, disrupt insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) levels, which removes beta-amyloid in the brain, a key protein in the cause of Alzheimer's.

In Type 1 diabetes, about 60 percent of those individuals develop kidney disease. I was just wondering - of all the Diabetics on this forum .... how many have had endocrinologists put you on medication to *prevent* kidney failure soon after your were first diagnosed? My endo is really pushing to put me on medication in case (and I stress the words "in case") I may get Kidney Disease. I have no signs of it or have it now. My Kidneys are healthy.

Your original post asked about prevention and was answered. "To rid of diabetes" depends on a person's lifestyle; body weight, what he/she is doing to control and manage their diabetes, how often they test, what their daily results are, results of an A1c test, and whether they are following lifestyle guidelines mentioned in the earlier post.
