I'm practice Japanese method acupuncture and am seeing an increasing number of overweight male Type II Diabetics, with high cholesterol and high blood pressure, medicated. I'd love to hear from other acupuncturists about how they treat these complicated cases especially with regards to treatments decreasing the need for medications in ways that are hard to predict; needling the lower leg and feet and treatment strategies. I will eventually post a relevant case study. FYI: I'm not an herbalist, and not in need of nutritional information/supplements.
