You are right .. it is not a cure. It is a working treatment. BTW you seemed so sure of yourself there. What medical studies can you show to make your point?

Here I'll give you a head start: safeaccess.ca If you search pub-med with the combination of "diabetes" and "cannabinoid" you should find a nice long list. And then you follow up with "but that's not in humans." And I say "let us try it in humans." And you say "it isn't safe to try in humans. So it shouldn't be tested." Meanwhile .. I know a sixteen year old girl that is a type 1 diabetic. She began to consume marijuana on a daily basis about a year ago. She wears an insulin pump that automatically pumps insulin as her body needs it. After a couple of weeks her body started to decrease the amount of insulin it was using. And then completely stopped. For the first time in her life, she could take the pump off the side of her body. Your favorite laws require her to go to her high school prom with a machine mounted on the side of her body.
