I myself managed to go through life without medication.
I would like to help you with it.
When I was 62, I was unpleasantly surprised by a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. Me, diabetes? I was (always) slim, didn't suffer from anything and felt fine. Since I didn't want medication, I decided to start living healthier (even). I then started eating fewer carbs. That went very well.

I am Gert, now retired. I like to walk and cycle. At the Diabetes Association Netherlands I am active as a volunteer advisor on care quality. Diabetes is a quest, where what works for one person, doesn't always work for another. I like to share that quest, also with you!

I am Jan van Elven 68 years old and was told 20 years ago that I had diabetes. After adjusting my diet, I started exercising a lot and that was the solution for me. It also helped me deal with the cause of my diabetes 'being overweight'. Eating and exercising resulted in me stopping the medication after a month (on my own initiative).
