Diabetes Improvement
We don't know of anyone with Diabetes that doesn't want to continue to improve their lifestyle. It doesn't matter which type of diabetes you suffer from, you can ease your own suffering through little changes.
This lens is designed to not only inform about the basics of this condition... the different Types of Diabetes, Diabetes Symptoms, General Diabetes Information, and so forth... we are also aiming to bring you the information that can be potentially life changing. Books and products that people just like you are currently using, that they have seen marked improvement from in their diabetes symtoms.
We want this lens to help you... and we want your input. So, please pass this information on to the people you know and love who are suffering, and tell them to drop by and visit.
Be sure and sign our guestbook and tell us whatever is on your mind about diabetes or a product or book you've tried. We welcome reviews and new suggestions. :]
We are just getting started here... we have a lot of information to share with you and will be updating often until this lens is filled out. Please continue to check back with us for the latest information!
Diabetes - A Brief Statistical Overview
Diabetes Symptoms
Think you have diabetes? Check the symptom list.
And this is what Wikipedia has to say about it...
Signs and symptoms
When the glucose concentration in the blood is high (ie, above the "renal threshold"), reabsorption of glucose in the proximal renal tubuli is incomplete, and part of the glucose remains in the urine (glycosuria). This increases the osmotic pressure of the urine and thus inhibits the resorption of water by the kidney, resulting in an increased urine producton (polyuria) and an increased fluid loss. Lost blood volume will be replaced osmotically from water held in body cells, causing dehydration and increase thirst.
Prolonged high blood glucose causes glucose absorption and so shape changes in the shape of the lens in the eye, leading to vision changes. Blurred vision is a common complaint leading to a diabetes diagnosis; Type 1 should always be suspected in cases of rapid vision change. Type 2 is generally more gradual, but should still be suspected.
Patients (usually with type 1 diabetes) may also present with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), an extreme state of metabolic dysregulation eventually characterized by the smell of acetone on the patient's breath, Kussmaul breathing (a rapid, deep breathing), polyuria, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain, and any of many altered state of consciousness or arousal (e.g., hostility and mania or, equally, confusion and lethargy). In severe DKA, coma (unconsciousness) may follow, progressing to death.. In any form, DKA is a medical emergency and requires expert attention.
A rarer, but equally severe, possibility is hyperosmolar nonketotic state, which is more common in type 2 diabetes, and is mainly the result of dehydration due to loss of body water. Often, the patient has been drinking extreme amounts of sugar-containing drinks, leading to a vicious circle in regard to the water loss.
Hey... Did you know there is a book called Diabetes Improvement?
The Diabetes Improvement Program is short but packed with info... we like it!
The Diabetes Improvment Program has been researched, developed and written by a doctor. It shows you exactly how nature can activate your body's built-in healers once you start eating the right combination of foods. This program works for both Type I and Type II diabetes and it can reduce, and in some cases even eliminate, the need to take insulin.
And We Found Some Great Resources for Improving or Reversing Your Diabetes Symptoms!

Diabetes Supplements??
Did you know that there supplements you can take as well as changes in your life style that can prevent and stop the symptoms of diabetes?
VEMMA... the Jury is Still Out...
... maybe you can help us make a decision...
lovemybob has made a comment in our guestbook that "VEMMA has had considerable success against diabetes. It may be just the answer for certain diabetes patients."
We had never heard of VEMMA before, so we did a little research for you... and want to ask for your help.
VEMMA stands for:
V -Vitamins
E - Essential
M - Minerals
M - Mangosteen
A - Aloe
This is the description:
Quite possibly the most powerful liquid antioxidant in the world!
Mangosteen, known as the "Queen of all fruits" has been used for centuries by Asian health practitioners for its nutritional benefits and delicious flavor. Combine the antioxidant-rich power of mangosteen with vitamins, plant-sourced minerals, aloe vera and green tea and you've created the ultimate nutritional foundation. Introducing the Vemma Nutrition Program - Essential for Life!
It's now well-known that taking multivitamins with minerals on a daily basis is vital for long-term optimal health. The Vemma Nutrition Program provides two powerful liquid formulas that make it easy to get the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants you need to form a solid nutritional foundation. Each product is bioavailable (body-ready), delicious and easy to take!
Who knew taking care of your body could be so easy?
Why Minerals?
Minerals are amazing! They're amazing because even in infinitesimal amounts these nutrients can produce unexplainable, beneficial changes in body chemistry.* Minerals are nutrients required by the body to help facilitate a multitude of biochemical and physiologic processes necessary for the maintenance of life.* Some of these processes include supporting the health of organs, bones, tissue and the immune system.* Minerals, like vitamins, are not synthesized in our bodies; therefore we must acquire them from outside sources.
Why Plant Source Minerals?
Because plant source minerals are from Mother Nature herself! Here's how it works: plants assimilate minerals from the soil they are embedded in and in the process an amazing conversion that science has not been able to duplicate takes place preparing some of them for human consumption. Nature really intended for humans to get minerals from plant foods - lots of minerals. As a matter of fact, minerals can be found in nearly all foods that are grown in soil. Carrots, grapes, broccoli...you name it. The problem in this day and age is that food processing, chemical fertilizers and overused crop lands make it impossible to get a wide spectrum of minerals from our diets. We just aren't getting what nature intended. Nothing is more beneficial than a full range of plant source minerals sourced from deposits that are thousands of years old - it's like harnessing the power of nature!
Why Supplement with Vemma's Essential Minerals?
Vemma's Essential Minerals provides what the modern, convenience-driven diet may be lacking: 65 major, trace and ultra-trace minerals in an ionic liquid form. The minerals are extracted from nutrient-dense plant vegetation that has been undisturbed for thousands of years. Then they are broken down into a bioavailable (body-ready) ionic state. This means the minerals are reduced to the smallest component that minerals can exist in and still retain their physical properties and are suspended into a completely dissolved liquid form. The result is a 100% ionic liquid mineral product that is easy for the body to use. This is important because as we age, the ability of the body to handle minerals declines, so body-ready minerals can be very helpful.
And, on a different note, because of the natural kiwi and strawberry flavors in Vemma's Essential Minerals, this beneficial liquid provides a delicious taste treat!

Many people in my family have type 2 diabetes and some have type 1. My husband and next door neighbor (Paul) have been having amazing reuslts with a new all-natural product. We've taken it for about 3 weeks now and my husband's leg and feet pain is almost gone (also pain in his arms and hands). This with him still smoking cigars a few hours per night! Wish we could see what it'd do without THAT! Our neighbor started feeling better the next day. My depression and anxiety disorder seems to have disappeared and my daughter has quit having chest pains and low energy. It's like she's a different person! I've been talking to people all over the country with many terrific results. This stuff releases your adult stem cells from your own bone marrow and travels to needed organs, etc. to repair damage. I am simply astounded at the difference i'm feeling and seeing in people i love! Posted November 14, 2007 |
I have been seeing terrific results of people with many health problems, especially diabetes (because so many peope close to me have both type 1 and type 2). Check out my website!: www.unleashyourstemcells.com
