Navigating complementary


and alternative therapies


By Nicola Davies, PhD


T


here is no one-size-fits-all approach


to diabetes treatment, which is why


more people are seeking their own treat-


ment pathways. Yet there are so many


alternatives available, it can be difficult


to know which one to choose. Like with


traditional diabetes treatment, everyone


is different, and what works for one will


not necessarily work for another. Often


it is a matter of trial and error. You can,


however, increase your chances of an


alternative therapy working by doing your


research first. This will help you select the


Shu best option for you.
