Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine if the nutrients arginine and fish oil will reverse or improve diabetes and to find out what additional good or bad effects a combination of arginine and fish oil may have. Both arginine and fish oil are common nutrients taken by normal people on a frequent basis. However, they have not been used in combination in the proposed doses to reverse diabetes once it is established. This study has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA investigational new drug \[IND\] 12191).
