Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Thanks Christene . . . We've had a number of women who simply couldn't stop eating sugar! Hopefully chromium picolinate will help them get it under control! If you think of the other vitamin/supplement, would you let us know? In addition to feeding yeast/fungal/Candida organisms, sugar makes the body more acididic and feeds cancer cells!

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 The other one is called Gymnema Sylvestre http://www.herbalprovider.com/gymnema-sylvestre.html? src=ggl & w=gymnema-sylvestre Gymnema Sylvestre, also known as Gurmar and Meshashringi, whose Hindi name literally means 'sugar destroyer', has been used in Ayurveda for several centuries to regulate sugar metabolism. The hypoglycemic (blood sugar-lowering) action of gymnema leaves was first documented in the late 1920s. This action is gradual in nature, differing from the rapid effect of many prescription hypoglycemic drugs. Gymnema leaves raise insulin levels by regeneration of the cells in the pancreas that secrete insulin. Other research has shown that gymnema also improves uptake of glucose into cells by increasing the activity of the glucose utilizing enzymes, and prevents adrenaline from stimulating the liver to produce glucose, thereby reducing blood sugar levels. The leaves are also noted for lowering serum cholesterol and triglycerides. It also abolishes the taste of sugar, which effectively suppresses and neutralizes the craving for sweets. The leaf extracts contain gymnemic acid which inhibits hyperglycemia and also acts as a cardiovascular stimulant. The primary clinical application for this botanical is as an antidiabetic agent. Gymnema has been the subject of considerable research since the 1930s, with promising results for types 1 and 2 diabetes. Gymnema has been successful in controlling the blood sugar level without reducing it to below the normal blood sugar level, an effect seen with the use of insulin or oral hypoglycemic sulphonylurea compounds. Gymnema provides a simple and effective method to help maintain healthy glucose levels. Gymnema contains Gymnemic acid (GA), quercitol, lupeol, & #2029;amyrin and stigmasterol, which have glucose lowering properties. It works safely within your current regimen to promote proper pancreatic function.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Yes Ma'am absolutely! Most of the time I read the posts and then I'm still thinking about them days later. I know it slows it down when I actually have some information to offer, but better late than never. Besides, if I didn't continually think about the things these ladies are going through, I may not have even thought of the chromium thing...I just know that it was literally a miracle for me and if that tiny piece of info helps just one person get relief ~ then I know my own suffering and battle with those cravings was not in vain. Thanks Christene . . . We've had a number of women who simply couldn't stopeating sugar! Hopefully chromium picolinate will helpthem get it under control! If you think of the other vitamin/supplement, wouldyou let us know?In addition to feeding yeast/fungal/Candida organisms,sugar makes the body more acididic and feeds cancercells!
