Fight Diabetes with Vitamins and Over the Counter Products
Diabetes Mellitus is an inherited disease which occurs when the Islands of
Langerhans on the pancreas are unable to produce enough protein and insulin to
process the carbohydrates (sugars and starches) we eat. The sugar stays in the
blood until it spills over into the kidneys and then is output in the urine.
Symptoms of the disease include extreme thirst, excessive urination, constant
hunger, loss of weight, itching around the groin, marked fatigue, changes in
vision, and slow healing of cuts and scratches. Consult your doctor if you have
any of these symptoms. People who are overweight, over 40 years of age and
related to known diabetics should be checked regularly.

Potassium is used by the pancreas during insulin release. Oat Bran contains
fiber which helps to regulate blood glucose levels. Magnesium is necessary for
blood clotting and proper insulin function. Chromium Picolinate plays a vital
role in sensitizing the body’s tissues to the insulin and enhances glucose
metabolism which will result in suppressing cravings for sweet foods. It is also
responsible for regulating the efficient metabolism of fats, carbohydrates and
protein. Vitamin E accelerates wound healing and aids in the functioning of the
immune system. Vitamin C can help the artherosclerotic condition of diabetic
arteries while at the same time fight infection and aiding in the healing of the
skin of the foot. Exercise is also very important in controlling diabetes, because
because exercise burns sugar just like insulin. Exercise every day if possible,
however, be careful to consult your doctor before starting any exercise
program.
