HALLE BERRY - BERRY BEATING DIABETES
The Times BFI London Film Festival: 'Things We Lost in the Fire' premiere
London, England ....
Pregnant HALLE BERRY is winning her battle with diabetes, thanks to a healthy diet and good living. The actress was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes after she passed out while shooting a TV show called Living Dolls when she first arrived in Hollywood. But the disease has now dropped to Type 2 diabetes because Berry is no longer "insulin dependent". She says, "I've managed to ween myself off insulin, so now I like to put myself in the Type 2 category."

she was obviously mis diagnosed to begin with, I have been type 1 for 36 years
and you don't just stop needing your insulin, if you are truly type I, type 2's
are often insulin resistant and can change this with diet and healthier living,
type 1's just never produce any insulin to be resistant too, she is making
herself look ignorant on the subject of diabetes

And here we are nearly 1 year later, and the story still is posted without any
correction or warning about the incorrect information given.
Shame on you all at contact music com
I suggest a disclaimer of some sort. This kind of miss-information is damaging
to all of those who actually do have type 1 and all of the children out there
saving pennies in their piggy banks to donate to try to really find a cure.
How dare you?
