DIABETES

Raising glutathione levels. What is its affect in diabetes? Will it actually lower blood sugar? Dr. Jimmy Gutman who is a physician and has researched and written extensively on glutathione and its role in diabetes has said “I don’t think in every case you are going to see a lowering of blood sugar, by taking this kind of product. Some people have argued vehemently that their blood sugar has dropped. (Ethel Murray over 300 dropped below 100 in a months time. Lavera Lewis in Oakland had to cut way back on her insulin and it saved her eyesight.) Yet there are some people who do not experience a dramatic lowering of blood sugar.

So lowering of blood sugar is not the primary reason it is recommended to take this product in diabetes.

There are several reasons why it does become important. We have to ask the question: What is it about diabetics that get them into trouble? There are two major areas.

First diabetics are by definition immuno-compromised. In other words diabetics are much more prone to the development of certain infectious diseases, they get skin infections more easily, bladder infections, lung infections and sepsis, much more commonly than a healthy individual.

So if we can bolster a diabetics immune system to make them more resistant against infection, then we can cut down on the amount of infectious complications.

But really the big, big problem in diabetes has to do with the circulation. Diabetics are much more prone to arteriosclerosis, heart attack, stroke and that’s with the large circulation.

When the small circulation is affected you get diabetic blindness, diabetic kidney disease, diabetic uropathy (a sudden blockage of the flow of urine from both kidnesys, which can cause the backup of urine and injure the kidneys).

Raising glutathione will prevent and potentially reverse some of these processes.

What is atherosclerosis? The common term that is used to describe it is hardening of the arteries. What’s going on is we start to build up this gummy substance in the lining of our arteries called PLAQUE.

When you continue to lay down this plaque in the arteries, the vessel gets smaller and smaller and you start to experience symptoms like, Ischemia, Angina & if the vessel is completely blocked you can experience a heart attack or a stroke or many other serious complications like that.

It is such a common process in North America, it is almost considered normal, a natural part of aging. Diabetics are more prone to this because of the higher sugar levels that are in the blood.

How does raising glutathione levels affect plaque formation or hardening of the arteries?

One of the major problems that’s involved in plaque formation is a little fatty substance that everybody’s heard of called cholesterol. Cholesterol is a circulating fat in our bloodstream that when it gets oxidized, changes its characteristic and becomes gummier, stickier and speeds up this process of hardening of the arteries.

Diabetics because of their sugar have higher levels of oxidative stress, so these fats become oxidized even quicker and they become more dangerous.

The biochemical that your body makes itself, naturally to slow down this oxidation of fats and cholesterol is something called glutathione peroxidase. If you raise glutathione levels you raise glutathione peroxidase and this allows you to keep these fats in a safer state.

In other words you prevent cholesterol from becoming oxidized. In other words anybody who is a diabetic, anybody who has heart disease, anybody who is a smoker, anybody with high blood pressure or with a positive family history has to pay very close attention to thisl

That is why in diabetes the frontline attack against this disease is not to bring down blood sugar, the intent is to protect the person from the long term consequences of this disease.

In addition to lifestyle changes the most powerful and important step you can make in your well-being and ability to cope with this disease is to raise your glutathione levels through taking Immunocal.

THE REASON I HAVE BECOME PROACTIVE WITH ADVOCATING IT’S USE IS BECAUSE OF MY FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE IN SEEING WHAT THE RAISING OF GLUTATHION HAS DONE FOR DIABETES SUFFERS AND EVEN MORE REMARKABLE WITH HOW IT HAS TURNED THE LIVES AROUND WITH PEOPLE DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER. I HAVE DECIDED NOT TO KEEP SILENT ABOUT IT ANY LONGER.
