Cactus for Diabetes Type II
Bill (Portland, Oregon) on 12/08/2009:
I have eaten Napolis Cactus shredded in the jars and it works great for diabetis. and Diapen Tea from Mexico is an amazing tea for diabetis an has been used in Mexico for years. Also alkaline water does amazing things also.
EC: From our online research, "napolis" are prickly pear pads grown in Mexico, which you can find in US grocery stores.

Since I am of Mexican descent our cure for Diabetes is to take a young pad from the Cactus plant. one rib of celery and a cup of low-fat or non-fat milk. Be sure to clean it well first. Do not handle them with your bare hands! There are some fine thorns you cannot see. Remove the thorns with a knife. Be sure to scrub the Cactus pad with a plastic scouring pad. When you have removed all the thorns including the fine ones there will be a slimy liquid that will start to come out. That's the good stuff! Cut it up put it in the blender along with the rib of celery and the cup of milk blend it well and drink it in the morning 1/2 hour before breakfast. This cure healed a man of 80 years old and he married a younger woman and they had a child. The doctor only gave him a few months to live earlier! He had a very bad liver. But this cure is for Diabetes. Good health to all. I LOVE THIS SITE!!!
