How Do Diabetics Know That A Natural Herbal Supplement Is Safe?

July 22nd, 2010

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for overseeing the safety of U.S. food and drug products.

From Proven ResultsHealth, the makers of  Diab-X: http://www.diab-x.com/

They do not have the authority to approve herbal supplements before they are sold, but there is something you can look for.

 

USP symbol helps wary shoppers separate “Pure” from “Contaminated” supplements 

The number one question I get asked daily is “Do these supplements really work, are they safe?”   When starting a serious campaign to change your lifestyle, and are determined to change the course of your diabetes.  You might need some outside help in selecting natural, herbal dietary supplements like a Niacin-bound chromium for diabetes.  Are they all the same?  Look hard for the “USP” symbol; find it on the package label.  It can be a good way to be sure you’re improving your health – not undermining it.  Look for it.

 

USP (United States Pharmacopeia), places it’s seal of verification on only those products that have the stated ingredient level, declared strength and purity claimed by the supplement provider.  Click here to see the USP site and the label:

http://www.usp.org/USPVerified

 The United States Pharmacopeia’s Chief Global Services Officer, John Fowler states “By selecting a supplement with USP’s DSVP certification mark, consumers will have greater confidence in the products they purchase.” 

In order for a supplement product to wear the USP symbol on its packaging, it must be submitted for strenuous testing and verification.

 

Four criteria are evaluated:
1. What’s on the label is, in fact, in the bottle – all label-listed ingredients are available in the stated amounts

2. There are no harmful levels of contaminants, including lead, mercury, pesticides, toxins, molds and other contaminants

3. Bioavailability, or an acceptable level of product breakdown and release into the body is achieved

4. Product manufacturing conforms to GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) standards

“USP Dietary Supplement Verified impramateur?

 

Another tip just ask them where it was manufactured

Ask where the product was/is made.  You’re valuable supplement should be prepared in a in a Professional State of the Art facility licensed by the State Board of Pharmacy.

 

Really Drill Down and Ask if there are Any Published Safety Studies

Ask them to direct you to the studies that demonstrate issues like starting and stopping the product with out a reaction.

A Diabetic Asks: How Can I Find Out If I can Trust This All-Natural Supplement?

June 23rd, 2010

8 Tips to find out if the latest Diabetes Supplement “REALLY WORKS”……..and is it a Safe, All-Natural, Herbal Nutraceutical that will help to Normalize Your Blood Sugar and Weight….or NOT!

I spend a huge amount of time on our 800 numbers listing to many great diabetic “success stories.” This is the best part of the day. I also spend time talking to people who are reaching out, looking for clarity in this turmoil of drug company’s problems–truth or dare. Most all of these questions I hear fall into 10 clear categories.

Let’s Talk About the Number One Question…”Does this stuff really work?”

There are 2 components to this answer. The easy part is asking if the nutraceutical is real and does it get results. The second part is about the willingness of the type 2 diabetic to make lifestyle changes.

Studies on the Natural Supplement Diab-X–general Index

http://www.diab-x.com/research/studies/index.html

80% Chance of success is in the Product

Let’s give you a better than 80% chance of success by finding an answer to the question “…Does this stuff really work?” This means that you, yourself, can discover if this natural product can truly produce results.

“8 Tips to evaluating an All Natural Herbal Remedy for your Diabetic weight and to control your Blood Sugar Levels.”

YOU can and need to assume the responsibility to investigate this yourself.

Tip #1 Become a Discerning Diabetic health seeker, learn the basics of Diabetes.

In Al Gore’s World Wide Web you have the opportunity to do extensive research your self: Mayo Clinic; The American Diabetes Association; The New England Journal Of Medicine; Dr. Marcola; Doctor Weil; blogs like healthertalk.com; the famous David Mendosa.com; and any number of scams. Read, read, read, and read more.

Tip #2 Just what are the CLAIMS these supplements make, and what is the proof.

This is easy. Is the proof on their web site…or are they asking you to trust them! Does the web site provide a page with the names of the clinical studies…the Universities where the studies were conducted…the dates and Doctors responsible…the abstracts of the results…and on. Or is it: “trust me, you’re not smart enough to know.”

Tip # 3 Are you receiving the Full Clinical dosage used in the studies?

If you can find studies…what was the dosage used on the people? Was it 900 mg three times a day? And does this match the dosage of your “instant cure” or are they only providing only 230 mgs? You can figure this one out.

Tip #4 What country was it made in?

You have seen the headlines: Diabetic Alert! FDA Seizes Chinese Herbs Used in Supplements. Too much lead or bugs. So find out where they manufacture it. There are many great facilities in the US where the FDA watches.

Tip #5 Does it have a United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) & National Formulary (NF) Seal? Purity and Safe.

Containing declared ingredient amount

Contains no harmful contaminants (such as Lead, Mercury, Pesticides, Mold or Bacteria)

Readily bioavailable (properly released in the body)

Manufactured according to Good & Safe Manufacturing Procedures (GMP)

Tip #6 Is it a hypoallergenic formula? …Or can your risk a reaction? It should contain no artificial colors, preservatives, yeast, wheat, corn, soy, milk or caffeine. A vegetarian formula is preferred.

Tip # 7 Are they going to give you a “stimulant buzz” so you know it works!

Check for Caffeine and other stimulants. You need a natural aid not a quick buzz.

Tip # 8 Search the FDA records.

A quick research will tell you what actions the FDA may have taken with the company.

Conclusion, You need to take control.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not have the resources or necessary manpower to closely control the vast number of over-the-counter or internet diabetic weight loss and sugar control supplements flooding the market today (its estimated that 151 million Americans swallow $17 billion worth of dietary, health and diabetic supplements each year).

As a result, it can be the Wild, Wild West out there – with unscrupulous manufacturers taking advantage of the situation, selling a concoction of adulterated half remedies, made with less-than stated ingredient levels.

FROM Your Friends at Diab-X.  The All Natural supplement That meets the California Proposition 65 requirements for NO heavy metals and pesticides.

Natural Cures For Diabetes Look to Natural Supplements –12 Reasons To Take Natural Supplements

June 13th, 2010

If Diabetes is 90% preventable, what will help cure Diabetes ? Type 2 diabetics, aware of the New England Journal of Medicine published reports, know that diabetes is 90% preventable.

Brought to you by the Makers of DIAB-X:  http://www.diab-x.com/

http://www.diab-x.com/chromium-supplements.html

It is hard enough to be a type 2 diabetic, but when you find out that most of today’s processed food aggravates or caused your condition, it’s even harder.(The New England Journal of Medicine September 13, 2001; 345) 

Holistic Medicine and your doctor should be mutually suportive. 

12 Reasons Why You Might Need Supplements: 

  1. If you are over fifty years old, you know that your body loses its ability to fully absorb nutrients, particularly chromium, iron, calcium and zinc. Fiber intake is often lower. This alone is reason enough to seek supplement support.
  2. If you are honest about your eating habits, you, and over 90% of the population doesn’t eat the way the Food Pyramid Guide suggests. You can see the need to supplement your diet with high-quality whole food supplements.
  3. If you drink Coke or Pepsi, be aware that “soda sucks chromium out of your system,” and chromium is an essential mineral that helps maintain healthy  blood sugar levels and minimize the onset of diabetes (Beijing Medical University study, Harvard School of Public Health). http://www.diab-x.com/chromium-supplements.html
  4. If you shop at a grocery store, be aware that many of the Supermarket Foods consist of  refined high-fat, high-sugar (hhigh fructose corn syrup).  This diet alone contributes to major nutrient deficiencies and diabetic problems.
  5. Your favorite highly processed foods often see drastically reduced nutrient content.  Processors use highly refined wheat to make white flour that has removed over 80% of its magnesium, 70-80% of its zinc, 87% of its chromium, 88% of its manganese and 50% of its cobalt.  Good grief!
  6. Food additives can deplete nutrients.  Thousands of artificial flavors, colors, dough conditioners, stabilizers and preservatives are added to many foods.  While some are harmless and may increase the value of food, many are toxic and can deplete the body of nutrients.
  7. Because we eat so much refined, low-quality food loaded with additives, our digestion is impaired.  This further impairs nutrient absorption and increases nutritional needs.
  8. Stress! This single most evil problem is not unusual to many of us. Stress can deplete your energy, cause clinical depression, lead to acceleration of aging process and degenerative diseases. The symptoms of stress include fatigue, depression, panic, anxiety, loss of appetite, and insomnia. Depression can be a result of high blood sugar. There are natural supplements that aid in the natural “production of serotonin” –a naturally occurring chemical to prevent depression. 
  9. Do you smoke? Chew tobacco? Drink Alcoholic beverages? Eat meals of microwaved food? Take Oral Contraceptives? If your alive in 2008 you most likely are in this group. All of these lifestyle factors dramatically increases your need for nutrients that diet alone just can’t provide.
  10. How about your food-store eggs, they are a lot older than you think. Nothing is fresh and grown within a mile of your home.  Many foods are grown thousands of miles from your home.  These fresh foods spend weeks on trucks or trains to reach you.  As soon as food is harvested, the level of certain nutrients begins to diminish, sometimes in a day.  This is another factor that reduces our nutrient intake and increases the need for supplements
  11. Antibiotics in our food. More than 80 million pounds of antibiotics are consumed each year in the U.S.  Residues of antibiotics are detected in livestock, farm-fed fish and commercial eggs. Antibiotics kill friendly bacteria in our intestines. We need these friendly bacteria to help our bodies absorb nutrients – especially B-vitamins. Such deficiencies can result in a variety of nervous and digestive conditions.
  12. Soil depletion (the cry of the Mid-West the Big Goiter capital of the US. Commercial farming, the use or artificial fertilizers and synthetic pesticides and acid rains, have caused soil depletion. So we deplete the essential nutrients in the soil. The nutritional values of fruits and vegetables are greatly reduced. In fact, the vegetables you eat today taste bland due to lack of minerals in the soil. According to a recent study sponsored by United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), about 17% of land in the world has been damaged.
