A man helping in Iraq turns yellow & a  reply:
Mike:
 
My wife, Linda, runs a nursing home in O'Fallon, Illinois and has been referring with her Registered Dietician and her personal physician here in Waterloo.

Both professionals are "sold" on nutritional and herbal supplements as well as healthy diet for the reversal of several maladies. Linda had had symptoms of diabetes, whereupon her physician had sternly recommended the Atkins Diet. By this we mean the original one, no processed meats or other foods, colored vegetables, no refined sugars or wheat, etc. Cheeses, eggs, and mayo in limited amounts, etc. Herbs and very-high vitamin supplements galore.

In short, Linda reversed the symptoms completely as evidenced by 2 very complete blood tests over the past year. So, we've really embraced the healthfood lifestyle.

There's one another supplement, which is temporary, by the way, that her personal physician is recommending which is glyconutrients.

I confess at first that the stuff sounded like snakeoil. The claims for it were sounding too good to be true. But Linda pressed her doctor AND her registered dietician and they both swear by it, pointing out that the AMA is starting to slowly recognize that the stuff does have merit.

The glyconutrients have reportedly been found to have the ability for the bodies cells to rebuild at a remarkable rate. Degenerative diseases such as cancer and diabetes have been vanquished and certain other maladies are falling before this treatment.

A video on the test results of this stuff looked as if true science had been followed regarding it, so I'm putting some skepticism aside. Not completely, but we're both considering it.

I'm mentioning glyconutrients to you Marge because perhaps, just perhaps these supplements might produce a chance that this afflicted man may enjoy some reversal of cellular damage with the above. I do NOT know if it can, but it's interesting to study.

It's not considered a cure at all. But rather a restoration of certain natural nutrients that the body should have in a regular diet so that it can heal itself.

I'm considering it for Linda. I'm still partially skeptical, so I'm searching the Internet and asking other healthcare professionals. By the way, nursing homes are using low-powered versions of this products and are reporting good results in the improvement of the residents. This is coming from the N.H. administrators, not salespeople.

I hope the above can be of help for folks that you meet. Please understand that I am not recommending the stuff until I know more, but I want anyone who's sufferng like the man you wrote of to have any chance of recovery, however remote.

Yes, I am hearing from several sources about the benefits of glyconutrients. And several doctors willing to do trials or doing tirals. I told her such yesterday... & suggested she click on the doctors' links mid page & look at page bottom of http://www.valdezlink.com/pages/diabetesDiabetes.htm

When I first saw the claims for glyconutrients about 10 months ago I dismissed it as "too good to be true"

I personally think that the glyconutrients alone would produce these good results. Not that a good diet & good nutrition isn't important. It is. But the Atkins Diet isn't all that great except the leaving off the white processed foods/sugar part.

I now suspect the Type 2 diabetes that I have is a birth defect from dad who must have been exposed in his WWII service. I believe that with no changes in diet, and use of the glyconutrients & minimal medications of any kind ... and this can be reversed & other ailments not show up (like brain tumors or other tumors here 'n there)

I am no expert on gluconutrients - our one viewpoint on it from personal experience is what is seen at O'Fallon Healthcare and it IS very positive. The residents respond quite well from using it.

The only thing is that if one has been on the Atkins diet to control diabetes, then the diet must be amended to compensate for those gluconutrients which are sugars.

The only thing is that it is way expensive at the moment. Some folks are selling it at $500 per one month supply, but I'm pretty sure that I saw some on the Web for 1/2 that price which is better, but still..... hmm.

Who knows, maybe in a year we'll start seeing it at Walgreens at reduced prices just like we see Rogaine at Walmart at 1/3 its original price.



Well, Dr REG said he would supply the glyconutrients for free, if there were funds to monitor results - prior & post trial - I think he is interested in the 'gulf war syndrome' vets' group

By the way, does 2-butoxyethanol ever get the blame for any of the harm that it does?

When these things show up, give this chemical exposure some thought - that's all
