There are 54 million Americans who have pre-diabetes, in addition to the 20.8 million with diabetes
Diabetes 2 is associated with obesity, thus it is often possible for those with Type 2 to avoid taking drugs and to regulate the condition with changes to their diet. The goal of any effective alternative program is to repair and restore the body’s own blood sugar control mechanism.

Regulate Blood Sugar Naturally!
Banaba documented for its ability to lower blood sugar and act as a glucose transport in the
blood stream. Known by some as botanical insulin.
Bitter Melon Noted for its regulative abilities and to improve glucose tolerance, Bitter Melon is
recommended by Dept. of Health in the Philippines as one of the best herbal medicines for
diabetes management.
Cinnamon USDA research indicates that Cinnamon reduces the amount of insulin necessary for
glucose metabolism. Furthermore, Cinnamon has been shown to stimulate glucose uptake and
glycogen synthesis to similar level as insulin.
Gymnema Sylvestre A Harvard study indicates the Gymnema can lower blood sugar levels in
Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics. A King's College, London, study states that Gymnema acts by
increasing cell permatibility, therefore reducing insulin resistance.
Huckleberry Helps to improve circulation in the little capillaries in the hands and feet. Also
valuable in balancing the digestion and strengthening the immune system.
Chromium Starting in the 1960s reports have shown that Chromium helps cells respond properly
to naturally produced insulin. Current estimates show that 90% of Americans are lacking in this
essential mineral nutrient.
Zinc Zinc contributes many factors in correct insulin function. Zinc is necessary for the pancreas
to produce insulin and allows insulin to work effectively, it also helps protect the insulin receptor
cells. When zinc levels are low, the pancreas may not secrete enough insulin, so glucose levels
remain high, and the insulin that is released cannot work as efficiently as it could. When this
happens, glucose cannot enter the cells properly causing high levels in the blood.
Biotin Biotin is a B vitamin needed to process glucose. One study showed that Type 1 diabetics
given 16mgs of Biotin for one week cut their fasting glucose by 50%. A type 2 study showed
similar results. There is also some indication that Biotin helps relieve pain from diabetic nerve
damage
