*Precautions: Diabetone is not to be used in low blood sugar cases such as hypoglycemia.  Diabetics should not self-medicate.  Diabetone is a potent blood sugar product and patients need to be monitored closely as insulin needs may decrease while on this product. Please consult with your health care practitioner before using this product. Seek the advice of a physician to ensure a proper successful treatment.  This, and any other supplement, is not a substitute for a qualified caring physician.

Quick useful facts for maintaining normal blood sugar levels:

• Eat smaller meals and more frequently. Always have a snack with you, preferably balanced in fat, carbohydrates and protein.  Biogenesis makes a useful healthy snack food bar that does not spike blood sugar.If you were to choose a candy bar, Snickers likely would be the best as it is full of nuts which have protein and fat along with the sugary chocolate.
• Eat plenty of soluble and insoluble fiber.  This means beans, vegetables, fruits, whole grains.  Fiber is useful as it slows emptying from your stomach.  Slow emptying means less sugar entering your digestive system which means a slower normal insulin release.
• Eat in a relaxed environment.  Stress induces cortisol which increases blood sugar.  So not only eat in a relaxed environment, but aim to create one around you at all times.  Not easy I know.  Just keep it in your mind.
• Avoid refined carbohydrates.  This means stay away from foods such as potatoes, typical low quality breads, white rice, grains stripped of fiber.  Refined carbohydrates are stripped of fiber making them taste better and cook faster.  Problem is they increase blood sugar levels quickly as they go through your stomach quickly.  Remember - no fiber, fast emptying of stomach contents.  You can eat these foods as long as you combine them with foods such as meats, vegetables, nuts, beans and so on.
• Exercise helps balance blood sugar levels.  Muscles need energy when exercising and energy for muscles comes from sugar.  Insulin pumps glucose right into your muscles and out of your blood.

Diabetone by Biogenesis is a useful natural supplement specifically designed by physicians to help support healthy blood sugar levels.

Benefits of Diabetone ™:

• Promotes healthy blood sugar control and balance
• Blood sugar level regulation
• Nutritional support for metabolism function
• May be helpful for type II diabetes, Syndrome X or Metabolic Syndrome.

Gymnema sylvestre is standardized for gymnemic acid content has been shown to enhance pancreatic beta cell activity and reproduction, thereby improving endogenous insulin output.

Vanadium (vanadyl sulfate) is a salt that has demonstrated insulin-like effects on glucose metabolism. Vanadium appears to enhance insulin receptors at tissue receptor sites. Vanadium improves insulin sensitivity in NIDDM patients.

Chromium has been shown to enhance glucose metabolism and transport. Chromium enhances

insulin responsiveness in skeletal muscle and fat cells. Beneficial effects have also been noted on the serum lipids, cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol.

Alpha Lipoic Acid improves insulin resistance in NIDDM patients. Alpha Lipoic Acid favorably influences the glucose transport proteins GLUT1 and GLUT4, thereby enhancing glucose uptake and utilization.

Fiber slows gastric emptying and thus slows glucose absorption through the intestinal mucosa. This benefit creates a more stable blood sugar level and favorably enhances insulin responsiveness. Fiber is important in blood sugar control.

Biotin is a B vitamin that has been shown to have insulin-like effects and enhances glucose uptake at the insulin receptor site.

Fenugreek Seed and Momordica (Charantin) are natural herbal concentrates have demonstrated improved glucose tolerance and improved glycemic control. Both herbs have been shown to reduce elevated serum glucose levels.

Myoinositol acts as an activator of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) energy mechanisms. It is reported to aid in glycogen utilization, fat metabolism (lipotrophic effect), and oxidative phosphorylation. These actions benefit diabetics through enhanced glucose utilization, fat metabolism and improved energy production through efficient ATP production.

Quercetin and Rutin are flavonoids that have been shown to act as antioxidants protecting lipids from oxidizing (lipid peroxidation). They also quench the peroxide free radical. Studies have shown them to reduce cardiovascular disease and cancer risk. Mast cell stabilization and reduction of release of inflammatory mediators is also a benefit of quercetin and rutin.

Vaccinium myrtillus with its anthocyanidin pigments has been shown to protect delicate optic structures. Vaccinium extracts can help lower the risk of developing diabetic retinopathy and cataracts.
