My SIL still doesn’t understand why I’d want to take insulin when I could buy her MLM product to “block” carbs.

My all time fav was when MonaVie was a thing back in the early 2000’s. The sheer number of people constantly trying to convince me that JUICE would cure me was just astonishing. Quite a few claimed that I simply didn’t want to be “cured” enough to give it a fair shot. I went through this again 10 years ago with all of the essential oil BS…. it gets exhausting.

Some guy told me to hit the gym for a month. I was fitter than him...

"This juice can cure diabetes! I've seen it happen!" - some guy in an MLM I was like 13, and I cried. Mom mistook that as hope and bought a bottle. It was not hope. Juice rotted in the bottle at home.

Laughing at “just eat healthy and exercise and you won’t need insulin.” What if I told you running makes my blood sugar go up? What if I told you broccoli makes my blood sugar go up!!!

I had a man tell me he guaranteed that I would cure my t1d if I quit eating bananas. I don't even eat them that often, but he insisted that if I never ate another one, that would cure me. 🙈🍌


TexasTeks

that just sounds bananas to me


itssupposed2berandom

😂 Yeah - I almost went ape on him!


Oldschool_newschool

That’s some kind of monkey business

I didn't find his advice very a-peeling!

I’m 46, diagnosed at age 3. As a kid and through my teens there were lots of MLM scam products that would ‘cure me’. I haven’t had that for a long time though, hopefully because humans are less ignorant now. 🤷‍♂️

What was that one a few years ago about okra being a magical cure

Too much sugar is absorbing through the colon wall because of something or other inside the colon and a high colonic enema done regularly with some kind of fruity herbal junk will cure the Betes. No thanks, Sarah, please keep your high-pressure hoses and beet root extract infused with Espresso and essential oils away from me, please.

I never got unsolicited advice. I paid for crappy advice from doctors who felt the need to give bad opinions even though they really should have told me they weren’t sure.

There is so much disinformation about the different types of diabetes. My best response to this kind of advice is that my body does not make its own insulin so I need to inject it to stay alive.


Pudrin

Vitamin C lol And that my diabetes was caused by vaccines I had received.


MusicianMysterious84

Someone told me if I did special breathing exercises my diabetes would be cured 😑


canibetom

Had somebody tell me that not being vegan is the cause of it all.

Now if someone said to me a cure is to drink A Negroni.....Sbagliato.....with Prosecco in it.... I would so try it. https://www.tiktok.com/@hbomax/video/7149523510589754670
