Hime

i take 1 pinch of it.less then 1/4 teaspoon. and i use to mix 1 teaspoon of kalonji oil with half teaspoon manuka honey and 1 pinch of kalonji seeds(grounded) in hot water for my father's kidneys. now his kidneys r working fine altho not 100% fine but the doctor said it is working normal!! so the oil is really very very effective!! expecially for hair and skin!

Hime

Thanks, I will try it as I also suffer from type 2 as well now for over 11 years but have managed to control it with tablets.

I will ask my dad to try.

Khumar

you probably should be cutting the McD stuff like fish burgers and heavy shakes. ok really. no shakes. why would you even risk that?

Hime

Tablets can kill u! i've never taken those tablets in these 6 yrs coz i can see what it did to my dad.cataract! kidney failure! etc, and u can't live without it once u've started it! my dietitian said he won't advise me to control it with tablets due to all the side effects! anyway don't give up kalonji if u don't seen any result in 2 months coz for some plp it takes more time.and whenever u take it say Bismillah & remember that u r taking it all coz of it was told by our Prophet(swa) and u believe that the Masomeen (as) never lies. so Good luck.

Hime

haha someone needs to be the guinea-pig. anyway i had mcd last night too 1 shake 1 sundae 2 large fires and 1 fish burger. and i tested my glucose 1 hr later which was only at 5.8.Thx Allah! anyway i have had enough balance diet 4 past 6 yrs ,so spoiling myself once in a while won't be a problem right?anyway i have decided to ask my doctor to check if i'm really ok now. ^^

FrozenFire

Thanks for sharing. I am going to ass it on to people I kknow who have diabetes too.
I recenty read in the book called"You , the owner's manual" By dr Oz, that for every year a person suffers from Diabetes, it takes 1.5 year off of their life.That in itself is scary.I pray that all of the people who sufer from it get better.

FrozenFire

make sure u pass it on to ppl, and not ass it on eh?

What about some herbs called "Zeerri"?? Its smell's like zeera so maybe these are some grounded stems of zeera plant but has anyone tried it? Someone told us it's good (didnt know about kalonji, though).

There is no cure for type II diabetes. Even pancreas transplant will not help. Anyone who discovers a cure will be awarded Nobel prize. I suffer from it too.
There are various treatments for it which are and should be supervised by doctors. Even if you think Kalungi is helping you , it is not a cure it is just a treatment. You can never get rid of type II diabetes. Anybody who is on any kind of medication for treatment of diabetes should not take any chances by stopping that treatment. You can try anything you feel like in conjunction with the medication you are on. Diabetes is a silent killer , you will never know if your condition worsens.

Hime

Just what makes u thinks that there's no cure for diabetes? those ignorant foolish scientists and doctors? who don't even believe in what eyes can't see? when they don't even realize that their eyes r only made to see what Allah wishes them to see?. our eyes can only see very little of it. anyway what i wanna say is that i believe in what our beloved Prophet(swa) has said and they can never never lie . and if u doubt in their words it means that u r in great danger.anyway just try it for few months and see what it can do, don't jsut say u don't believe when u haven't even tried it yet.just see it for urself.

Hime

^^ Thank you so much that's really so kind of u!

Hime

yeah but i won't be having any of that for next few months i need to lose some weight! lol

Hime

and yeah i have never told anyone to stop their diabetes treatment coz they can take kalonji even if they r on medications. like my dad. the doctor notice the improvement in him and he reduced his injections. so just don't reduce ur medication urself.

Take a chill pill pal in addition to kalongi . Looks like kalongi is working for your diabetes not to control you blood pressure . You believe in what you believe , I did not say that you should stop doing what you are doing. I did not say that I will not try what you tried and seems to be working. I will try that too. All I am saying is CURE is a big word , it should not be taken so lightly , it takes years of research to declare something to be a CURE of a disease. Diabetes is not a disease like common cold it is silent killer . So if someone becomes lax about their treatment based on the notion that they have been cured by using kalongi on a few months use of it and do not monitor their sugar or do not go their doctor regularly and if in fact kalongi is not a cure , and if it is just a treatment like many other treatments , then those people are endangering their lives and you are endangering yours and their lives too.
Rest is up to you , I am trying to be a voice of reason.

P.S: Please do not bother to post a reply to this post . It is my last post in this thread on this topic.

sweetu

yes i have tried it i think its also known as kalli(black) zeerri or jeeri as my nana says, its very very bitter not sure if it helps in diabetes tho i tried it for skin problems

very true, u can find sme very good treatments but cure in itself is a very big thing

There is some good news for Type II diabetics . I saw a news article on a local TV station last night. This article seems to be old but this is what they were talking about it, and I am going to talk to my doctor during my next visit to him.

Stomach Surgery Successfully Treats Type 2 Diabetes in Test Group

A type of weight-loss surgery called the LAP-BAND has been successful in putting type 2 diabetes in remission, according to researchers in Australia. Doctors from Monash University in Victoria found that the majority of people with type 2 diabetes who were treated with the stomach-reduction surgery achieved better blood-glucose control one year afterward. Results of the study were published in the February 2002 issue of Diabetes Care.
John B. Dixon, MBBS, and colleagues studied the effects of laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAP-BAND) surgery on 50 people with morbid obesity and type 2 diabetes. All subjects were screened for diabetes, had a mean weight of about 302 pounds (meaning that half weighed less than 302 pounds and half weighed more), and had a Body Mass Index of 35 or higher.
The LAP-BAND procedure involves having an adjustable silicone band placed around the upper section of the stomach to create a small pouch.
"This limits food consumption and creates an earlier feeling of fullness," according to Inamed Corporation, the maker of the band. "The band is inflatable and connected to an access port placed close to the skin that allows surgeons to adjust the system to meet individual patient needs. The procedure is reversible and does not require cutting or stapling of the stomach."
One year after the operation, 64 percent (32) of the patients experienced remission of their type 2 diabetes, which was defined as having normal fasting blood glucose, A1C, fasting insulin and C-peptide levels, according to Diabetes Care. Average A1C levels were 7.8% before the operation and 6.2% one year after the operation. The subsequent weight loss caused significant improvements in cholesterol levels, hypertension, sleep, depression and quality of life.
Six percent of the patients experienced early complications (wound infections and need for respiratory support), and 30 percent of the patients experienced late complications (prolapse of the band, erosion of the band and leaking) that required follow-up treatment.
"Our experience with the LAP-BAND system shows that some patients with type 2 diabetes. truly benefit from its use. With obesity hitting epidemic proportions, this is a viable option that curtails severe obesity, which helps decrease the severity of risk of developing other co-existing conditions," said Dr. Dixon in the Inamed press release.
The LAP-BAND operation was recently approved for use in the United States. It promotes weight loss progressively over the first two to three years and plateaus at six years after the operation, the researchers state in the study.

My mother has started taking that (Zeerri) from today (apart from her usual medication, ofcourse). Hope it works.

iori yagami

err yea but dont stop with the meds .. i have heard of people going all out after doing these quick remedies and killing themselves because of it. Take things slow and easy . Chances are it will bounce back after a while if you keep doing this.

reply is for others to see as well, so is ok if u won't reply. but my blood pressure was always ok. and i have repeat many times that who ever thinks that kalonji is helping them or have cured the disease then they must go to the doctor and ge their blood checked. coz kalonji has kept my glucose level always at 5-7. just imagine someone 's whose blood sugar is so normal and still taking his medication or insulin! that's y they must MUST! go to see their doctor after recovering . and why'll someone stop monitoring their sugar ,since i have been taking kalonji i have been checking it 4 times a day coz the numbers make me so happy. lol

read this:
"It has been reported that in 1996 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted a patent for drug based on extracts of "Nigella Sativa," for the use as an immune system stimulant and for treating cancer, preventing the side effects of anticancer chemotherapy, and for increasing the immune system functions in humans. However a search of the FDA website failed to find any evidence of this and all applications for Kalonji seeds and preparations containing Kalonji have been rejected due to poor presentation, i.e. containing dirt and unfit for human use, but don't let this deter you."
just what do they mean by "dirt and unfit" for human use? this really makes me laugh. is more like they r afraid that their medicine won't sell if a cure is found.and is not poison it won't endanger anyones live just keep checking ur blood sugar.That's it.
