How Many Pills Do Diabetics Need to Take Before They Get Better?

Hi, I’m Dr. Jonathan Spages, and I want to share some eye-opening insights about the math behind diabetes treatment. For over a decade, I’ve helped thousands of patients reverse type 2 diabetes. Many of them walked into my office as full-blown diabetics, relying on medications, and left healthier, non-diabetic, and with fewer or no medications.

If you’ve ever wondered why medications don’t seem to solve the problem, let’s dig into the numbers and rethink the approach to diabetes care.

The Math of Diabetes Medication

When most people are diagnosed with diabetes, the typical treatment plan is a life sentence of daily medications. Here’s what that looks like:

• One pill a day = 365 pills a year
• 10 years of treatment = 3,650 pills

If 3,650 pills haven’t solved the problem, will 4,000 or even 5,000 pills suddenly fix it? Unfortunately, no. The reality for many is that instead of seeing improvements, they’re prescribed more medications over time—sometimes as many as 18 pills a day!

Think about it: if you cut your hand, your body naturally heals. Why should your metabolism, which is designed to self-regulate, be any different? The issue lies in the fact that medications only address symptoms, not the root causes of diabetes.

Why Traditional Treatments Fall Short

Diabetes medications are designed to manage blood sugar levels, but they don’t fix the underlying imbalances in your body that are causing the condition. Over time, this leads to a frustrating cycle of:

• Increased medication dosages
• More side effects
• No real improvement in overall health

Taking 18 pills a day is not a solution—it’s a sign that the approach isn’t working. If you’re not seeing better energy, improved metabolism, or vibrant health, it’s time to consider a different path.

A Different Approach: Addressing the Root Cause

Type 2 diabetes isn’t just about blood sugar; it’s a symptom of deeper issues. My approach focuses on uncovering and addressing these root causes:

• Liver Dysfunction: Your liver plays a critical role in metabolism and blood sugar regulation.
• Inflammation: Chronic inflammation disrupts your body’s ability to heal and manage insulin.
• Hormonal Imbalances: Stress hormones like cortisol can wreak havoc on your metabolism.
• Toxic Overload: Toxins in food, water, and the environment strain your body’s ability to function properly.

By identifying and treating the root cause, my patients see real, sustainable results:

• Blood sugar levels stabilize.
• Medications are reduced or eliminated (under their doctor’s guidance).
• Energy levels improve, and weight loss happens naturally.

Conclusion

If you’re relying on medications and not seeing meaningful improvements, it’s time to rethink your approach to diabetes care. The numbers don’t lie—pills alone won’t heal your body.
