Is there a cure Diabetes in the forseeable future?

they are stupid

NO there is no foreseeable cure but they are coming up with much better and easier ways to manage the disease....

I am hoping that stem cell research will be more widely approved and that will lead to a cure.

yes ! clinical trials are starting for a pill that makes your pancreas create penicilin again. so far it has worked about 70-80 % in all animals tried us humans are the next guinnie pigs.

All you gotta do is exercise daily and eat sensibly if you have type 2 diabetes....you can utterly cure it yourself. Type 1 unfortunately still requires much insulin to control it.

Once doctors can reproduce a lab created pancreas, then it would be totally curable. Unfortunately until then, we have to discipline ourselves and not over use our pancreas's ability to produce insulin.

I believe there is because of the new technology developing. I bet in 25 years they'll be able to reduce the chance of getting it. I am not exactly sure about being cured all the way.

The cure is out there,but due to greed it is not a priority. Diabetes is not fatal as long as you manage it correctly,which means pills,special diets,insulin,..the country grows wealthy on diabetics.

They will never be allowed to cure diabetes. Think of all of the money it generates. Insullin costs about $80+ a bottle for synthetic (which is "better than organic"), needles are $30 a box, blood testing strips are $100 for 100 not to mention glucose, blood pressure medicine (which goes along with the disease) and any other thing they need. What would the Joslin Diabetes Center do if they cured diabetes? Shut down? Put all those doctors out of work? Let's be real. Consider you are an average diabetic in a 30 day month (not including insurance) taking 4 shots a day, testing 4 times a day etc. ...you're looking at $800 - $1000 a month per person not counting doctor visits. Do you really think Lily would allow for this cash cow to end. Let's face it things will get more expensive for better treatment. Don't fool yourself, people have cured it already but they have been bought off and shut up. About a year ago, MSNBC ran story about a German doctor who had the first successful pancreatic cell generation from implanted pancreatic cells. The story shortly (within hours) was removed and never archived or followed up on. I've been a diabetic for 30 years and I've come to the conclusion that there will never be a cure in the United States.
