Diabetic Nutrition Rx is a supplement specifically designed for the special needs of diabetics. Our product includes vanadyl sulfate which is a new form of vanadium, a substance which has shown to benefit diabetics greatly. Vanadyl sulfate acts as a insulin "catalyst", enabling diabetics and borderline diabetics to efficiently use the insulin in their system. This is accomplished by the synergistic action of vanadyl sulfate which allows insulin absorption at the receptor site. The restriction or obstruction of insulin at the receptor sites, or insulin resistance, is the greatest problem diabetics face. Supplementation of vanadyl sulfate and chromium in synergistic ratios may help ease insulin resistance and lead to improved glucose metabolism.

Diabetic Nutrition Rx contains chromium picolinate which has been shown to lower blood pressure and regulate blood sugar levels. Numerous studies have shown a strong correlation between a deficiency of chromium and adult onset of diabetes. Chromium may also increase the number of insulin receptor sites and help activate insulin receptors, making the receptor site more sensitive to insulin.

Five crucial digestive enzymes which help diabetics digest proteins and carbohydrates have also been included in Diabetic Nutrition Rx. Because the diabetic pancreas slows or stops production of these important enzymes, it is important to supplement these enzymes for complete digestion and metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats.

Diabetic Nutrition Rx also contains essential minerals and vitamins including calcium, copper, magnesium, potassium, vitamins A, B-1, B-3, B-6, selenium and zinc. All of these ingredients have been shown to be deficient in the diabetic patient. Careful attention has also been paid to the quality and dosage ratio values to insure optimum bioavailibility and assimilation of these nutrients. Diabetic Nutrition Rx is a new aggressive approach to meet the special nutritional needs of diabetics.

Active Ingredients:

Vanadyl Sulfate:

• Improves insulin efficiency by allowing greater absorption of insulin at the receptor site.
• Improves cell responsiveness to insulin, thereby easing insulin resistance at the receptor site.
• Helps activate glucose transports, activates glycogen synthase in the fat cells, and stimulates carbohydrate uptake in the liver.

Chromium Aspartate:

• Helps lower elevated blood sugar levels in diabetics.
• Helps reduce high blood pressure.
• Helps reduce elevated cholesterol levels.
• Helps increase the number and sensitivity of insulin receptor sites.
• Helps reduce body fat and build lean muscle tissue.
• Aspartate form has the best assimilation and bioavailability.

L-Carnitine:

• Improves metabolism of glucose in the cell bodies.
• Improves metabolism and mobilization of stored fat cells.

L-Glutamine:

• Helps metabolize sugars and fats.
• Helps in reducing fatigue.
• Helps to curb the craving for sugar.

Niacinamide:

• Helps rejuvenation and extends remission time of the pancreas.

Digestive Enzyme Complex:

• Contains eight of the most effective and highest quality digestive enzymes to help ensure the proper digestion and metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates.
