Some people swear that magnetic therapy has done wonders to help ease their pain and ailments. There's been limited scientific studies on the powers of magnets and there are many critics out there. But, it's said that the magnetic field causes particles to move and heat. Blood vessels are widened and blood flow is improved. Magnetic therapy is non-evasive and can be used to treat diabetes.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Learn how magnetic therapy can help diabetes. Diabetics often suffer from poor circulation in their legs and feet, causing numbness or pins and needles. Magnets can increase blood flow to your legs and make your swollen feet feel a lot better.

  2. Step 2

    Stimulate your pancreas gland by placing 2 magnets on your back, above where your naval would be. Make sure they are relatively strong. Keep them on your back for 15 minutes, twice a day. The magnets will increase the amount of insulin your body releases.

  3. Step 3

    Drink 3 to 4 cups of magnetized water a day. It will greatly boost the effectiveness of the magnets you're wearing on your back. The water increases your blood flow and reduces inflammation. Some studies also show that magnetized water regulates your hormone and blood sugar levels.

  4. Step 4

    Purchase magnetic insoles for your shoes. There are several on the market. Studies find they provide a lot of relief to diabetics who suffer from peripheral neuropathy.

  5. Step 5

    Walk your pain away. The magnets inside the insoles will improve the circulation in your feet. Some also claim to increase your endorphins or natural painkillers. Once your feet and legs feel better, you'll finally be more mobile.

Tips & Warnings
