Can you get a good rate for life insurance, treating yourself for Diabetes?

Many people have Diabetes, unfortunately.
And many people treat the condition themselves.

Is that also unfortunate, when it comes to their ability to buy life insurance?

It all depends. Doctors and Big Pharma may have a vested interest in using medication to treat Diabetes. At the same time, many people “go the natural route.”

Do life insurance underwriters look down on the use of diet, nutrition, and exercise to treat this condition? No, they don’t. They just want your health to show good results:

Is your blood sugar in the normal range?
How about your A1c?
Is your weight normal?
No complications

If the answers are all Yes, then congratulations! You have successfully taken control of your health… and you can qualify for low rates on life insurance.
