Dr. Fuhrman Cures Diabetes - But Drug Companies Object. Joel Fuhrman MD has cured hundreds of people of diabetes using diet and lifestyle. The American Diabetic Association wanted him to write about his work -- but then objected because their sponsor, Eli Lilly drug company, might feel threatened by an MD promoting a cure which could destroy the market for their diabetes medications. This is an excerpt from Dr. Furhman's presentation at the Healthy Lifestyle Expo 2007. To learn more, or to get a copy of Dr. Fuhrman's full talk on DVD, go to: https://secure.vegsource.com/catalog/
