I don't know of any nutrients but honestly the best way to go is just to live a healthy lifestyle by eating well, getting plenty of exercise and getting regular checkups. Try not to worry either because stress isn't very good for your immune system. :) Another thing I'd like to add is that there is no way to prevent Type 1 diabetes which has a genetic predisposition and is an autoimmune disorder. I know this because it runs in my family and one of my sons has it. Type 2 diabetes, which is a metabolic disorder, is caused by the body's resistance to insulin, whereas Type 1 is caused by the body's immune system "killing off" a healthy pancreas for a reason that is unknown.

effective home remedy is jambul fruit known as jamun in the vernacular. It is regarded in traditional medicine as a specific against diabetes because of its effect on the pancreas. The fruits as such, the seeds and fruit juice are all useful in the treatment of this disease. The seeds contain a glucoside ‘jamboline’ which is believed to have power to check the pathological conversion of starch into sugar in cases of increased production of glucose. They should be dried and powdered. This powder should be taken mixed in milk , curd or water. Hydrotherapy and colonic irrigations form a very important part of treatment. The colon should be thoroughly cleansed every second day or so, until the bowel discharge assumes normal characteristics. Bathing in cold water greatly increases the circulation and enhances the capacity of the muscles to utilise sugar.The diabetic patient should eliminate minor worries from his daily life. He must endeavor to be more easy-going and should not get unduly worked up by the stress and strain of life.

Well, Diabetes is unfortunately not always something that can be prevented even with the Best of Care. It is something that you just hope never hits you if you are doing the things to keep you healthy. What might be a key factor besides natural products, are Eating Foods that are Healthy and good for you to help in prevention of this disease. Foods that are high in Processed sugars, and carbs is just as Bad as natural sugars so learning to eat healthy is a Great start as well. Really, there is not much you can do to completely stop it, but Diabetics can live healthy life styles if they allow themselves too. It is not the end of the world to be Diabetic.
