Bio-Health Glucobloc
More and more people are suffering from diabetes - and the number of younger sufferers is growing.
According to the Malaysian Ministry of Health, eight per cent of Malaysia's population suffered from diabetes in 1996. From all accounts, the number is growing, especially the younger population.
Simply described, diabetes is a disease of too much sugar in the blood.
And diabetes is closely linked to diet and lifestyle - in other words, a high intake of sugar and a lack of exercise.
There are two types of diabetes, i.e. Type 1 Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) and Type 2 Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM).
Type 1 normally happens in younger adults and Type 2 happens in older adults. Type 1 sufferers need daily injections of insulin whereas for Type 2 sufferers, the body can't make use of insulin effectively.
Gymnema is known as "destroyer of sugar" because it suppresses the taste of sugar. It has been safely and successfully used for more than 2000 years in traditional Ayurvedic medicine for treating diabetes mellitus. Recent clinical trials in India have shown Gymnema is useful in both Type 1 and specific types of Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The active ingredient of Gymnema, gymnemic acid, is a sugar-like molecule that blocks the taste buds and sugar receptors in the intestines from absorbing sugar.
Clinical tests have shown regular use over a period of three to four months helps reduce glycosuria (sugar in urine) in diabetic patients.
However, they show Gymnema does not cause low blood sugar or hypoglycemic effects in healthy individuals. Indeed, these tests have also supported the long-held claim among Ayurvedic practitioners that Gymnema can regenerate and repair pancreas cells to raise blood insulin levels in Type 2 patients.
What Gymnema Can Do:
- Suppresses the taste of sugar and reduces sugar craving
- Prevents excessive sugar from absorbing into the body and controls body weight
- Controls blood sugar level in diabetic patients.
