Let's break this down. Type 2 diabetes is an acquired metabolic disorder where your cells are desensitized to insulin. They refuse to take in any more glucose--for their own survival. Just like too little glucose, too much glucose is also deadly to cells.
“Unfortunately, there are currently only very few drugs that lower insulin levels,” explained Raimund Herzog, a Yale School of Medicine endocrinologist working on the project. “If our ongoing clinical trials confirm the promise of the preclinical studies reported in this paper, and ultrasound can be used to lower both insulin and glucose levels, ultrasound neuromodulation would represent an exciting and entirely new addition to the current treatment options for our patients.”
Again, insulin is a hormone, a chemical messenger molecule that tells your cells to take in more glucose. Lower insulin means cells take in less glucose, meaning higher glucose levels in the blood. This treatment is supposed to lower BOTH glucose and insulin levels. If the glucose isn't being taken in by your cells, where does it go??!
This seems like snake oil. There is no cure for Type II diabetes other than to stop being a fatass and eating so many carbs.
