Diabetes Natural Treatment
Control your diabetes naturally
Diabetes Natural Treatment and Senior Health
Drugs normally indicated in conventional diabetes treatment only suppress the systemic damage that has already occurred, and most often create further deterioration and weakening. Dietary supplements on the other hand are the safest and most effective choices for diabetes control. Nutritional supplements are almost free of side effects, easy to take, relatively inexpensive and enhance many organ functions as well as diabetes itself. Certain supplements can even reduce your reliance on prescription lowering drugs. The correct nutrients have the ability to protect you from the results of diabetes and even from diabetes itself. A diet emphasizing complex carbohydrates, fiber, whole grains, legumes and vegetables may help to reduce the requirement for insulin dependence by slowing and controlling glucose release. Diabetes Natural Treatment
While choosing a formula it is important to choose one that encompasses all aspects of diabetic care, not just blood sugar levels, in a wholistic way. It is important that ingredients also concentrate on whole organ and body protection, to strengthen against diseases of diabetic complication and indeed to greatly reduce risks of such complications. It is equally important that all ingredients are of quality and standard, and are mixed in a professional manner concentrating on their efficacy and complementary factors. Natural scientific studies confirm that the below ingredients are important to consider in such a formula… Diabetes Natural Treatment
Chromium and biotin
Studies show chromium and biotin to significantly improve several heart disease risk factors in people with type 2 diabetes. Research tells us that chromium and biotin improve blood sugar levels in peoplewith type 2 diabetes. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Chromium in particular helps to stimulate the activity of insulin (by increasing insulin receptor sensitivity), aiding glucose and fat metabolism efficiently, and also improving cholesterol profiles as an added benefit, to help protect against related disease. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Biotin has particular pyruvate kinase activity (an enzyme involved in glycolysis (glucose metabolism)). Diabetes Natural Treatment
Alpha-lipoic acid
An antioxidant able to neutralize free radicals before they cause oxidative damage, repairing damaged tissue and treating peripheral nerve damage. ALA also improves glucose metabolism (to help lower blood sugar) in diabetics by increasing insulin sensitivity. It is thought to be able to improve blood flow in the tiny blood vessels that supply nerves. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Bilberry
Bilberry contains anthocyanosides (responsible for the colors in the flowers and fruits), along with at least 12 other phenolic acids. Evidence suggests that anthocyanosides strengthen blood vessel walls, reducing inflammation and generally stabilizing tissues containing collagen (the main protein in the fluid matrix of the eye). This helps to prevent eye disease. (NB: Blindness occurs in 19% of diabetic sufferers.) Diabetes Natural Treatment
Corosolic acid
A main active ingredient of glucosol. It is significant in glucose transportation from the blood into the tissue cells where it is used or stored. It is an essential part of the metabolic process needed to convert dietary elements into body energy, a mimic of insulin for glucose metabolism. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Green tea
Research has found that green tea results in a reduction of the risks of developing diabetes, such as in obesity for weight loss. It has high antioxidant properties and its detoxification ability on the pancreas. One study concluded that people who drank 6 cups or more of green tea per day were 1/3 less likely to get diabetes. The link was stronger in women than in men. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Gymnema sylvestre
Scientific evidence continues to conclude its effectiveness in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It is one of the most practical herbs for improving blood sugar control in diabetics. Its leaves have the ability to raise insulin levels, possibly due to their ability to help regenerate and revitalize the beta- (insulin-producing) cells in the pancreas. A water-soluble acidic fraction of the leaves (gymnemic acid) also provides hypoglycemic actions. The leaves are noted for lowering serum cholesterol and triglycerides too, a related help to prevention of diabetes-associated diseases.Extracts have shown no side effects. NB: In type 2 diabetes some patients have been able to discontinue oral drugs in favour of Gymnema sylvestre use. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Inositol
D-chiro-Inositol is a rare component present in proposed mediators of insulin action. The metabolism of D-chiro-inositol is abnormal in diabetes and appears to be influenced by short- and long-term metabolic control, therefore supplementation helps to successfully control glucose metabolism. Inositol also increases circulatory ability, helping to prevent atherosclerosis. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Iron
Emerging scientific evidence has disclosed unsuspected influences between iron metabolism and type 2 diabetes, where glucose metabolism impinges on several iron metabolic pathways. In recent years, increased iron stores have been found to predict the development of type 2 diabetes, and iron deficiency may also increase the development of type 2 diabetes itself….i.e. where excess glucose binds to hemoglobin (the iron-containing part of red blood cells) causing a reduction in oxygen, iron supplementation increases hemoglobin levels and consequently oxygen content. The study of individual iron susceptibility propose to be valuable in anticipating and treating diabetes complications. NOTE: It is important that the type of iron used in a supplement is not one which will oxidize in the body. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Luteolin
Used in Indian medicine mostly, luteolin is a natural flavonoid possessing strong antidiabetic activity. Luteolin inhibits alpha-glucosidase and alpha-amylase, suggesting that it can suppress postprandial hyperglycemia in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. (Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are anti-hyperglycemic agents that inhibit the digestion and absorption of complex carbohydrates, reducing the rise in post-prandial blood glucose). Its glucosidase inhibitory potency has been stronger than that of widely prescribed antidiabetic drugs. Luteolin also helps in the prevention of diabetes complications…due to its anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory and vasoprotective properties. It has anti-cataract and anti-obesity actions. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Momordica charantia
Otherwise known as Bitter melon, it is shown to regulate glucose uptake into jejunum membrane brush border vesicles and stimulate glucose uptake into skeletal muscle cells similar to the response obtained with insulin, also helpful for glycogen synthesis in the liver, improving glucose tolerance. It assits in keeping body functions operating in a normal manner, suppresses the neural response to sweet-taste stimuli and helps to regenerate beta cell function in the pancreas. At least three groups of constituents found in all parts of bitter melon have clinically demonstrated hypoglycemic properties. These chemicals include steroidal saponins, insulin-like peptides, and alkaloids. The hypoglycemic effect is more pronounced in the fruit of bitter melon. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Myricetin
A naturally occurring flavonoid important in lowering plasma glucose. Myricetin has excellent antioxidant properties and is capable of also modifying LDL cholesterol in a way that improves white blood cell update and modulates glucose absorption. It mimics insulin stimulation and glucose transportation and its excellent hyperglycaemic actions. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Nigella sativa
Otherwise known as Black cumin, it has been studied for its effect on insulin secretion. Many studies conducted conclude that it is significant in increasing glucose-induced insulin release from islets in the pancreas. Piper longum
Known as Long pepper this plant is used to improve the immune system. It is a good rejuvenator. It is antibacterial and soothes the nervous system. Quercetin and Rutin
Quercetin inhibits the enzyme known as aldose reductase, which converts blood sugar (glucose) to sorbitol. Sorbitol is implicated in the development of many of the complications of diabetes, including diabetes-related cataracts, retinopathy and neuropathy. (Sorbitol ingested, as opposed to manufactured by the body has no deleterious effects.) Quercetin therefore helps to protect the membranes of the lens of the eye from high glucose damage. In addition to inhibiting aldose reductase, quercetin may also help control diabetes through enhancing the secretion of insulin, protecting the beta-cells of the pancreas from free radical damage, and inhibiting the aggregation of blood platelets. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Selenium
Selenium is an antioxidant mineral thought to reduce oxidative damage commonly associated with diabetes. Selenium has essential functions in glutathione peroxidases and thioredoxin reductases and contributes remarkably to the maintenance of the cellular antioxidative balance. It is significant in the expression of proteins in insulin-resistant type 2 diabetes. Research indicates that selenium, especially when given in combination with vitamin E, had a significant protective effect against diabetes-associated oxidative damage in the blood, liver (relevant to liver glucose synthesis) and muscle. In addition, patients with diabetes have exhibited low selenium concentrations in their lymphocytes (white blood cells) and therefore need this essential mineral boost. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Silybum marianum
Commonly known as Milk thistle, this plant could decrease the insulin requirements of diabetic patients, especially suffering with alcoholic liver cirrhosis. It has good antioxidant properties and is effective on hyperinsulinemia, exogenous insulin need and malondialdehyde levels in cirrhotic diabetics. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Sulfur as MSM
Sulfur-containing B vitamin biotin is a critical part of glucokinase, the enzyme involved in the utilization of the sugar glucose. Sulfur is also a component of insulin, the protein hormone secreted by the pancreas thatis essential to carbohydrate metabolism. Lack of nutritional sulfur in the diet can result in low production of biological active insulin. Studies indicate, that MSM improves cellular glucose uptake by improving cell permeability, thus balancing blood sugar level and returning the pancreas to normal functioning. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Vaccinium myrtillus
Vaccinium myrtillus L. (blueberry) has been used traditionally in the treatment of diabetes as it has been shown to help drop plasma glucose levels by about 26% (also decreasing plasma triglyceride (TG) levels). It significantly reduces thrombus formation in diabetics, possibly because of its effects on free fatty acid metabolism. Its active constituents may also prove useful in the treatment of dyslipidaemia (disorders of lipoprotein metabolism). Diabetes Natural Treatment
Valeriana officinalis
Hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus is responsible for the development of oxidative stress, which is characterized by increased lipid peroxide production and/or decreased antioxidative defence. Valeriana officinalis acts as a catalyst, significantly reducing diabetic oxidative stress. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Zinc
Development of diabetic complications is thought to be accelerated by the generation of free radicals in cells and tissues. In diabetes oxidative stressis due in part to an increased production of plasma free radical concentrations and a sharp reduction in antioxidant defences. Among the causes of enhanced free radical production, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia and/or insulin resistance. Zinc has shown over and over in studies to have major potential beneficial antioxidant effects in supplementation for people with type 2 diabetes. These results are particularly important to the use of Zinc in supplementation. Diabetes Natural Treatment
Pterocarpus marsupium
This plant extract has a long history of being used in diabetic treatment in India. It is a potent flavonoid that has been shown to help regenerate beta cells in the pancreas and help to control blood sugar levels as part of a hypoglycaemic action, mimetically similar to that of insulin. Other helpful nutrients include: * Vitamin B6 Aetyl-L-carnitine
* Vitamin C
* DHEA
* Zinc
* Vanadyl sulfate
