Dr. Harris' Original Gluco-norm™ Over 19 million Type 2 diabetics in the U.S. Over 20 million "prediabetics" and hypoglycemics in the U.S. All of the above have insulin resistance. Uncontrolled swings in blood sugar level promote complications of diabetes, including cardiovascular disease, retinopathy, kidney failure and neuropathy. These complications begin even in uncontrolled prediabetics! There are now approximately 20,000,000 American in the USA that have already been diagnosed with diabetes and another 20,000,000 more with impaired glucose tolerance. 2,200 new cases of diabetes are being diagnosed every day. It is estimated that u to 40,000,000 cases of diagnosed diabetes will exist in the USA by 2005. Approximately 95% of those cases are Type II diabetes. The basis for this disease is characterized by the body's development of insulin resistance, which prevents the body from utilizing the available insulin to metabolize the sugar in the blood stream. Consequences of Sugar Fluctuations Dramatic sugar fluctuations can have potentially serious consequences, which include heart attacks, strokes, hypertension (high blood pressure), vascular disease, kidney failure, peripheral neuropathy, and amputation of the lower extremities. How Dr. Harris' Original Gluco-normTM works This patented blend of special herbs, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids has the ability to decrease insulin resistance, stimulate pancreatic production of insulin and modulate the range of blood sugar fluctuations. Will not cause hypoglycemia. The only product that will correct hypoglycemia in most cases. Restores energy in cases of abnormal glucose metabolism. By decreasing insulin resistance, glucose is metabolized more efficiently, aiding in weight loss in many cases. Until more recently, all of the oral medications for Type II diabetes pushed the pancreas to produce more and more insulin. Overproduction could result in hypoglycemia with significant symptoms. During the past few years, a new medication, Metformin (brand name Gluco-phageâ) has emerged as the first drug to reduce insulin resistance. Studied extensively by the FDA, this pharmaceutical compound is one of the most prescribed medications for the management of Type II diabetes. Interestingly enough, Metformin is produced synthetically, but a naturally occurring botanical that works on a similar scientific principle is found in nature. Dr. Harris' Original Gluco-normTM includes this compound in SugarSolverTM, a special proprietary blend of botanical extracts designed to aid in the management of hyperglycemia and blood sugar fluctuations, as well as improving cellular insulin sensitivity. Since these actions result in a more stable blood sugar, this formula may be useful in treating hypoglycemia. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. << Back
