Because the Medical industry is focused on treating ailments not curing ailments..
Think about it for a second.. What's best for business? Producing a pill that cures a person of diabetes or producing a pill that a diabetic needs to take each day for the rest of their lives to stay alive? Sell one pill and lose a customer.. Or keep a life time customer who will buy a pill of you each day for 20 -40 -60 years ?
You don't really need to think much about it do you?
