Blaine Mann, Health & Energy Shop Owner
Herbal Vitamin Supplements to Balance Diabetes
Blaine Mann, owner of the Health & Energy shop, was our guest speaker for June. Mr. Mann says that diabetes is a disease of carbohydrates that elevates blood sugar. For instance, cereal is full of bad carbs, such as rice puffs or rice krispies – they are worse than a white potato. So you need to avoid these kinds of foods.
Infections can cause your pancreas and liver to malfunction. This can lead to 'composite diabetes' which is a very severe form of diabetes in which mono-saccharide is formed and there is no control of your blood sugars. Monosaccharide is a long chain alcohol sugar. Glycogen is a special sugar retained in your muscles for immediate needs. Athletes can deplete this very quickly so they need to drink high carb drinks. Composite diabetes causes this glycogen to be misused and a diabetic can lose their stores in their muscles.
You need sugar in your blood … your brain needs at least 50% or your sugar intake and at least 20% of the oxygen you take in.
All diabetics were hypoglycemic at one time or other. When you have a hypoglycemic incident, your experience a 'low-fuzzy' brain.
Your liver produces GTF (glucose tolerance factor) and your hypothalamus controls your pancreas. Chromium Polynicotinate is an ingredient that works with your insulin to help your glucose tolerance. You can take Chromium Polynicotinate as a supplement to help drop your blood sugar levels. You need 50 mics a day of Chromium Polynicotinate. Asia has 5 times the chromium as we do and they don't have the level of diabetes that we do. Asians who have migrated to the US are beginning to have the same level.
Mr. Mann told the story of his father who ate like he wanted and drank as well. He woke up with a blood sugar reading of 215 in the mornings and was concerned. So Mr Mann sent his father some Chromium Polynicotinate to try to help. After 3 weeks, his father reported his morning glucose readings to be 120. Indicating that the Chromium Polynicotinate lowered his blood sugar.
Vanadium functions similar to, or mimics, insulin. Body builders use Vanadium to increase their muscle mass.
Mr. Mann discussed how exercise will help reduce your BMI and lower your stress which will help your blood sugar levels.
Glucofage and drugs like it squeeze your pancreas causing it to be over worked. It won't take long for your pancreas to just burn out from being squeezed so much.
There are several natural things you can take to help diabetes:
Cinnamon lowers your blood sugar, your triglycerides and your LDL. Make sure you are buying pure cinnamon (3%), not what is on the grocery shelves. Mr. Mann carries this higher percentage cinnamon in his store.
Nopal Cactus is another food that helps lower your blood sugar. It is even more effective when cooked.
Bitter Melon is effective in balancing your blood sugar.
Gymnema Sylevestre repairs the beta cells in your pancreas!
Mr. Mann talked about his newest product called carb blocker. You can eat what you want and take one of these and not worry about it.
He also talked about a product called Phasaline. 1 tablet of this product blocks 1100 calories – so you can use it for weight loss.
Mr. Mann talked about Lipotripic, a supplement which increases your metabolism, which will cleanse your system and drop your LDL. You will take low amounts of this product to help lower your cholesterol and you will take high amounts of this product for weight loss.
Mr. Mann discussed the fact that an article in Science News and a 1994 article in the Chronicle claim that a virus is a cause of diabetes. They claim that this virus attacks the beta cells in the pancreas and renders them useless. He says it is a 'Transmorphic Organism'; one that is made up of a fungus, a virus, and a bacteria. It cannot be gotten rid of because if you are treating for one of the 3 the other 2 protect it. For instance if you are treating for the bacteria, the virus 'wraps' itself around the bacteria and fungus protecting it. Interesting concept.
Mr. Mann fielded several questions from the attendees as we enjoyed a fruit plate and bottled water.
