    Health Warning: Fruit Juice Supplements and Blood Sugar

    Note from The Story Lady:  Health truly is the true wealth, and sometimes we are misled as to what truly will enhance health.  There are so many "fruity juice" supplements out there, and way too often I see them recommended as a "cure" or a help for diabetes, hypoglycemia, or other blood sugar imbalances.  While every body is different, first of all, nothing and no one can claim to "treat," "heal" or "cure" anything.  If someone uses those words (and I heard them uttered by someone representing a tea company a few days ago), RUN.  The following is an article by Dr. Robin Rushlo based on a recent report of the American Diabetes Association.  Let's see what honest-to-goodness third party independent RESEARCH has to say about fruit juices like those "wonder juices" you may have encountered.


    Consult your physician if you have any questions.  Orovo does have a juice supplement called Orovox.  If you have no concerns with blood sugar imbalance, diabetes, hypoglycemia, etc., and if you are not noticing any change for the worse in how you feel, you may be just fine if you continue to use it.  if you have ANY sort of blood sugar issue, discontinue use of this supplement or any other juice supplement.


    Now on to our article.  I would like to thank Dr. Rushlo for being my guest blogger today.


    ADA and Supplements or what supplements are y ou taking?

    Copyright © 2008 Soaring Eagle Companies LLC


    The American Diabetes Association (ADA) has been interested in supplements and complementary andalternative medicine (CAM) for people with diabetes.  Whether these supplements and treatments are effectiveis an important issue.  In 2003, a group of doctors decided to find out how effective and safe herbal therapiesand vitamin/mineral supplements were for glucose control in patients with diabetes. (Yeh, GY, Eisenberg DM,Kaptchuk TJ, Phillips RS.  Systematic Review of Herbs and Dietary Supplements for Glycemic Control in Diabetes,Diabetes Care 26:1277-1294, 2003).  They looked at all the various articles that described the results whenpatients with diabetes had actually taken various supplements and vitamins.


    In their article, the author's state:


    A total of 108 trials examining 36 herbs (single or in combination) and 9 vitamin/mineral supplements, involving4,565 patients with diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance, met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. Therewere 58 controlled clinical trials involving individuals with diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance (42 randomizedand 16 nonrandomized trials). Most studies involved patients with type 2 diabetes. Heterogeneity and the smallnumber of studies per supplement precluded formal meta-analyses. Of these 58 trials, the direction of theevidence for improved glucose control was positive in 76% (44 of 58). Very few adverse effects were reported.

    The article goes on to state:


    Plant derivatives with purported hypoglycemic properties have been used in folk medicine and traditional healingsystems around the world (e.g., Native American Indian, Jewish, Chinese, East Indian, Mexican). Many modernpharmaceuticals used in conventional medicine today also have natural plant origins. Among them, metforminwas derived from the flowering plant, Galega officinalis (Goat's Rue or French Lilac), which was a commontraditional remedy for diabetes. Similarly, the use of vitamin and mineral supplements for primary or secondarydisease prevention is of increasing interest

    In their conclusions, the author's state:


    There is still insufficient evidence to draw definitive conclusions about the efficacy of individual herbs andsupplements for diabetes; however, they appear to be generally safe. The available data suggest that severalsupplements may warrant further study. The best evidence for efficacy from adequately designed randomizedcontrolled trials (RCTs) is available for Coccinia indica and American ginseng. Chromium has been the mostwidely studied supplement. Other supplements with positive preliminary results include Gymnema sylvestre, Aloevera, vanadium, Momordica charantia, and nopal. So, what supplements should YOU be taking?


    After doing more research I have found the vitamin with everything we need.   It combines the power of our TopTen SuperFoods and Antioxidant Blend with 23 Essential Vitamins and Minerals.


    This will have you feeling better than ever before. Used by our bodies for day to day maintenance and repair,vitamins and minerals are essential to maintain the healthy, normal processes within your body. Because ourbodies are unable to produce vitamins and minerals in sufficient quantities to ensure cellular health, our bodiesmust acquire them from our diet. However, with the pace of life constantly increasing, we are eating more andmore processed foods.


    This came right from their label:

    Recommended Use:  Take 2 capsules twice a day with food.
