TERRY’S BOTTOM LINE:
High blood sugar and Type 2 diabete
are rampant. However, the need
for supplemental insulin and the
complications of diabetes – vision
loss, nerve damage, kidney disease,
heart disease and more – arecompletely preventable! In addition
to committing to rethinking your diet
and getting sensible exercise, there
are proven ingredients that can help
your body properly metabolize glucos
and get your blood sugar levels down
These nutrients:
• Help metabolize carbohydrates
and sugars
• Keep sugar levels at an even keel
throughout the day • Prevent damage to nerve endings
• Help turn calories into energy
rather than fat
• Normalize circulating blood glucos
• Reduce sugar cravings
Here is the formula I suggest:
Biotin 667 mc
Chromium (as Chromium 200 mc
Nicotinate Glycinate Chelate)
Mulberry 335 mg(Morus Albus L.) Leaf Extract
Benfotiamine 100 mg
Purslane 60 mg
(Portuluca oleracea L.) Aerial Extract
Mulberry – More Effective than
Drugs for Reducing Blood SugarMulberry ( Morus alba) trees are very commonthroughout the world, and their medicinal value
is very impressive. In a clinical study publishedin the journal Clinica Chimica Acta, patients withtype 2 diabetes treated with a mulberry leafextract significantly improved their glycemiccontrol compared to glibenclamide (a drug)treatment. Comparing the two, fasting bloodglucose after treatment with glibenclamidedecreased by 8 percent. After mulberrytreatment? 27 percent!
In a similar study, mulberry leaf extract wasalso shown more effective in controlling fastingblood glucose levels than the oral hypoglycemic
drug glibenclamide. And yet another scientificstudy in Thailand showed that mulberry leafextract decreased blood sugar levels by 22percent after being administered for six weeks.
The reason mulberry leaf works so well isbecause it contains substances that inhibitan enzyme (alpha glucosidase) responsible forbreaking down carbohydrates into sugars. Thatmeans that the absorption rate of these sugarsis reduced and delayed, which lessens thestress on the insulin system. Make sure that
the mulberry leaf extract is standardized foralpha glucosidase inhibition for it to be effective.Other benefits of mulberry leaves in people withdiabetes include: reduces high blood sugarlevels, works as an antioxidant, slows the onsetof retinopathy (damage to the retina of the eyecommon in people with type 2 diabetes), andcurbs the cravings for foods that can worsendiabetic conditions.
Purslane – Nutrient-Rich Blood
Sugar ControlPurslane ( Portulaca oleracea) is an ancient herbdiscussed in Greek medical scripts, and waseven mentioned in the book of Job in the Bible.Some experts call it “The best vegetable you’venever had,” because it is not well known, but isenormously healthy.
In a pilot study of individuals with type 2diabetes, purslane extract outperformed theplacebo group by 44%, and returned high blood

Sugar Intake SoarsAccording to the USDA, our sugar intakeationwide has expanded dramatically within
he past 100 years. In the early 1900’s, theational average of sugar consumption was 10ounds annually per person. Today, the nationalverage is around 150 (and probably up to 200)ounds of sugar per person.
And one type of sugar – high fructose cornyrup – has seen an explosion of use in just theast 40 years. From a small beginning in the970s of only 5 pounds consumed per person,y the year 2000, that number had risen to anverage of 85 pounds of high fructose cornyrup in one year.
ugar and starch consumption is one of themajor reasons for weight gain, mood swings,nd the rise of type 2 diabetes. If you have highlood sugar, diet must be a part of your solution.

Benfotiamine fights the damage of bloodlucose in many ways. A scientific study athe University of Florida College of Medicinehowed that benfotiamine prevented glucoseoxicity and brought elevated blood sugar levelsack down to normal.
his form of vitamin B1 has also been clinically
roven to reduce pain and complications ofiabetic neuropathy, the “pins-and-needles” andtingling” that people with diabetes feel in theireet and legs.
n a Serbian clinical study, patients withiabetes were treated with a combination ofenfotiamine and vitamin B6 for 45 days. Athe end of the study, 86 percent of the patientseported a highly significant reduction in overall
pain. The pain due to light pressure, touch, ortemperature – a condition called “allodynia”often seen in those with neuropathy – wasreduced from 77 percent of the patients to 22percent by the conclusion of the study. There
was also a reduction in pain due to the lossof muscle fibers, (called hyperpathia), from 90percent of the patients to just 32 percent. Theresearchers felt that these results “confirmedthat benfotiamine was a good starting choicefor the treatment of diabetic polyneuropathy.”
Biotin and Chromium – PerfectPartners for Glucose Control
Biotin is a B-vitamin that is absolutely necessaryfor our bodies to process glucose properly. Infact, in cases of biotin deficiency, the pancreaticislet structure – the “birthplace” of insulin– is altered as well. If you’re deficient, yourbody’s ability to respond to glucose levels isseverely compromised. Biotin has been provenfor glucose control in cases of type 1 and type 2diabetes. An Iranian study found that it reducedA1C and fasting blood sugar levels in individualswith poorly controlled type 1 diabetes.
Chromium is an essential trace mineral forblood sugar metabolism. It activates insulinreceptors, helping to prevent the build-up ofglucose in the bloodstream. If you have justbeen diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, or haveelevated blood sugar levels, getting chromiuminto your regimen is important.
An Indian clinical study followed 20 individualstaking chromium versus the same amount using
