If these are inadequate, then pills are typically started due to simplicity and cost concerns. If these fail, then injectable agents such as Insulin or Byetta are started. This information relates only to type ii diabetes. Type i diabetics are always treated with insulin.

Paleo diet/low carb: The easiest way to reduce diabetes, blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight is by completely stopping high carb foods (grains, lentils, potatoes based items). Also avoid milk protein since it causes insulin resistance. Low carb food items such as eggs, fish, meats, vegetables, avocados, some saturated fat (butter, coconut oil), olive oil are very effective. This diet may help avoid meds
