Think about it. If you could take care of your diabetes with natural treatments instead of a drug, would you be better off? Let that question roll around in your head. Contemporary scientific study has established the usefulness of many diabetes natural treatments. Plants have been used for hundreds of years as diabetes natural treatments. Only those herbs that emerge most successful, are relatively non-toxic and have extensive documentation of effectiveness are covered in this article. Here are some of your diabetes natural treatments. Blueberry leaves A decoction of the leaves of the blueberry has a long record of folk use in the treatment of diabetes. The compound myrtillin (an anthocyanoside) is actually the most active ingredient. Upon injection it is somewhat weaker than insulin, but is less toxic, even at 50 times the 1 g per day therapeutic dose. A single dose can produce beneficial effects for weeks. Blueberry anthocyanosides also augment capillary integrity, slow down free-radical damage and improve the tone of the vascular system. In Europe, it is used as an anti-haemorrhagic agent in the treatment of eye diseases including diabetic retinopathy. I like this diabetes natural treatment. I have heard many people state the benefits of blueberries. Pterocarpus Marsupium Thats easy for you to say. The tree is the source of the Kino of the European pharmacopeas. The gum-resin looks like dried blood (Dragon's blood), much used in Indian medicine. This herb has a long history of use in India as a natural treatment for diabetes. The flavonoid, (-)-epicatechin, extracted from the bark of this plant has been shown to prevent alloxan-induced beta cell damage in rats. Both epicatechin and a crude alcohol extract of Pterocarpus marsupium have actually been shown to restore practical pancreatic beta cells. No other drug or natural agent has been shown to generate this activity. Gymnema Sylvestre For helping the pancreas produce insulin Gymnema is an effective diabetes natural treatment. Taking 500 mg daily is a dosage many people ascribe to. I used this herb to lower my blood sugar. It is also effective at diminishing the urge to have sugar. Your desire for sweets will also lessen when using Gymnema. Fenugreek Experimental and clinical studies have demonstrated the antidiabetic properties of fenugreek seeds. The active ingredient responsible for the antidiabetic properties of fenugreek is in the defatted portion of the seed that comprise the alkaloid trogonelline, nicotinic acid and coumarin. Frick and Frack - Onion and Garlic Here are two easy to find diabetes natural treatments. Onion and garlic. Go check out the pantry. These two bulbs have been effective as having significant blood sugar lowering action. The added benefit is that garlic and onions have had positive cardiovascular outcomes. Just be careful not to get too close to people when using these. Asian Ginseng - the energy booster Asian ginseng is commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine as a natural treatment for diabetes. It has been shown to enhance the release of insulin from the pancreas and to increase the number of insulin receptors. It also has a direct blood sugar-lowering effect. A recent study found that 200 mg of ginseng extract per day improved blood sugar control as well as energy levels in Type 2 diabetes (NIDDM). Bilberry Bilberry may lower the risk of some diabetic complications, such as diabetic cataracts and retinopathy. Ginkgo Biloba Ginkgo biloba extract may prove useful for prevention and treatment of early-stage diabetic neuropathy. Cinnamon - Triples insulin's efficiency The benefits of using diabetes natural treatments compared to ingesting drugs are many. They are safer, and get to the problem without the side effects that quite often accompany medications. You may have to experiment with these alternative remedies to find the one that is best for you. Is that a responsible way to better health? I think so. You have been given a list of at least 10 diabetes natural treatments. I have had success using some of these herbs. Hopefully you will also succeed.
