Diabetics Health

Diabetes, glucose,  has become a major  illness with  possible serious repercussions if not  controlled.  Being a diabetic my self, type 2, cause by bad medication, I have to constantly  watch my glucose  level .

By taking Optimum Diabetics  supplement my blood count remains at a steady 86 or 4.6, depending which scale one is using. This means that I can go hours without having to eat food. It allows me to be fairly easy about slipping the odd sweet into my diet! Now I don't tell every body about the liberty I take with my glucose but with Optimum and a good deal of exercise I am able to  life a normal life.

As  a fellow diabetic you know  that  keeping up a strict diet can be quite challenging watching out for the good fats and  then avoiding that bad fats. All items that contain sugar and sugar it's self must be avoided the whole system can be a bit of chore. If you have sweet tooth!

The Optimum supplements certainly makes life so much  more simple and pleasant, being able to eat very neally every thing. This is particular fore filling when out at a restaurant  with  clients or when visiting friends  and fitting into the hosts menu and not having to demand a special diet food.

One thing I must bring to your attention.  If you are already on prescribed medicine it is wise to discuss the taking of a supplement with your doctor. Be sure that Optimum, which is a herbal, does not react with your medicine.





I am sure you will want to know the composition of Optimum Diabetics from a scientific point of view and  how it has been tested. Read on...........

Beta glucan Lowers Blood Lipids

BERLIN—Barley beta-glucan reduces serum lipid levels, according to research presented in April at the First International Congress on Pre-Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome.

In the six-week study, 76 men and 79 women with hypercholesterolemia, aged

25 to 73, completed a four-week lowfat diet prior to baseline. At the beginning of the trial, test subjects were randomly allocated to one of four treatment groups or a control group and assayed for blood lipids and other cardiovascular disease (CVD) biomarkers. During the course of the study, test groups were administered 3 g and 5 g doses of low molecular weight (LMW) or high molecular weight (HMW) barley beta-glucan (from Cargill) twice daily, in cereal and juice.

Posttreatment assessment of blood lipids and other CVD biomarkers revealed improvements in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, markers of glycemic control

(glycosylated hemoglobin, HOMA model) and a key marker of inflammation

(hs-CRP).

The researchers concluded both doses of LMW and HMW barley beta-glucan improved blood lipids over a six-week treatment period.
