| Diabetes affects 20 million people in the U.S. It is the third leading cause of death, and is the major cause of blindness, heart disease, kidney failure, amputations, and digestive disorders. Although the three main causes of diabetes are heredity, a malfunctioning immune system, and viruses - everyone needs to be concerned about diabetes because there are other contributing factors: Obesity, lack of exercise, and most importantly, improper nutrition - resulting from the overconsumption of processed, chemically treated, overcooked, high fat, high glycemic, packaged, fast food - in other words - nutrient deficient food.
Diabetes is a serious condition where the body either doesn’t make, or properly use, insulin. This causes sugar/glucose to build up in the bloodstream instead of being absorbed into the cells - and your body can’t make the energy it needs from the food you eat . . . And if we can't process the glucose or don't utilize the nutrients we need, then we don't efficiently generate the energy we need and our body starts to store fat.
As the most nutrient rich, natural food, RiSoTriene has been shown in studies to help stabilize blood sugar in both diabetics and non-diabetics alike. In fact some diabetics experience significantly reduced blood sugar levels with some requiring less insulin as a result. (1, 4)
First: with over 100 antioxidants, including high levels of tocotrienols and tocopherols, RiSoTriene fulfills the diabetics need for increased vitamin E. Vitamin E improves glucose metabolism and insulin action, and combats the oxidative stress that can lead to poor circulation, a major cause of amputation in diabetics.
Second: Lipoic acid, which has been used for years in Europe to treat diabetic neuropathy, and prevent diabetic retinopathy and cardiopathy, protects blood vessels and vital organs from the damage that can be caused by excess sugar.
