Introduction
This week on the PEMF-SHOW we will be discussing how Pusled Electro Magnetic Field Therapy (or PEMF) can help people suffering with diabetes. We will explore what causes diabetes, the symptoms people struggle with, and how PEMF can help alleviate both.
The Diabetes Plague
Diabetes is a growing problem worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, there were approximately 422 million people in 2013 who suffered from Diabetes. (1)
Most people stumble across their diabetes due to symptoms that they begin experiencing. According to the Mayo Clinic (2) these include:

This was certainly the case for me, waking from a deep sleep with “knives and axes” attacking my feet, never mind pins and needles! At first, I thought something was biting me. After doing a thorough search of the bed, I realized the only other living being in it was my wife, so I started to look online. I quickly found that neuropathy (pain in the feet) is often due to diabetes. I was sure I didn’t have it until I read the list of symptoms and realized I had most of them.
I went to my doctors and asked to be tested for diabetes. Diabetes is diagnosed based on the A1C which measure the amount of sugar in the blood.
My A1C blood level was measured at 175.68 mg/dl or 9.75 mmol/l. My doctor called me the next day and informed me I was classified as a Type 2 Diabetic.
Understanding Sugar Metabolism
It is worth taking a few minutes to understand how the body uses sugar. Sugar or glucose is the fuel that cells use for energy. It is metabolized by the body to produce ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) which is the energy that powers the cells of the body.
The glucose in our blood comes from two sources:
