The pancreas is a large organ that is part of the digestive and endocrine systems. It is located deep within the upper abdomen, surrounded by the stomach, small intestine, liver and spleen. The pancreas is a vital organ that performs two important functions within the body.
It produces digestive juices and enzymes to help digest fats, proteins, carbohydrates (amylase), and sodium bicarbonate, which helps to neutralize the stomach acids in food. The pancreas also produces the hormone insulin, along with a variety of other hormones. Insulin helps to control the body's normal blood sugar levels.
As blood sugar rises, insulin is secreted and causes the muscles and other bodily tissues to absorb glucose from the blood to fuel their activity. Insulin also promotes the absorption of glucose into the liver, where it is stored as glycogen for use in response to stress or exercise.
What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a chronic biochemical disorder which affects the body’s ability to use carbohydrates, sugars and starches. People with diabetes are not able to produce sufficient insulin or are unable to use the insulin they produce effectively enough to break down glucose or sugar in the blood and make it available to the body.
Diabetes is often referred to as an epidemic in the Western World today.
There are two main types of Diabetes, referred to as Type I and Type II Diabetes.
Type I Diabetes usually surfaces in childhood and is usually associated with the inability of the pancreas to produce insulin. People with Type 1 Diabetes are also called Insulin-Dependent because they have to take insulin for life.
Type II Diabetes is also called Adult Onset Diabetes and usually occurs after the age of 40. People with Type II Diabetes do produce insulin in the pancreas, but their body cells have become resistant to it.
Although people with controlled diabetes can lead a normal healthy life, uncontrolled diabetes means chronically elevated blood sugar levels which slowly destroy proteins in the body, causing considerable damage to tissues and organs.
Complications from untreated or poorly controlled diabetes include kidney damage, heart disease, nerve damage, and even blindness.
How do I know whether I have Diabetes?
Diabetes must be diagnosed by a medical doctor, endocrinologist, homeopath or naturopath. However here are some of the more common symptoms.
If you are at all concerned about whether you have diabetes, especially if you are overweight and have a family history of diabetes, please seek medical advice.
Some Symptoms of Diabetes:
Frequent and excessive urination
Always thirsty
Chronic fatigue, lethargy and weakness
Cuts and wounds never seem to heal normally
Weight loss without dieting
Loss of libido
Numbness and tingling in hands and feet
Recurring infections, especially Urinary Tract Infections, Thrush and Athletes Foot
Blurred vision
What causes Diabetes?
There are no clear answers about the causes of Type I Diabetes in which the pancreas stops producing insulin. Some theorists believe that Type 1 Diabetes may be an auto-immune response or could be caused by a virus.
Type II Diabetes, which begins in adulthood, is strongly linked to obesity and an unhealthy lifestyle.
Both Type I and Type II Diabetes are known to have a strong genetic link. This means that if you have people in your family who have diabetes, then it is even more important to follow a healthy diet, exercise regularly and to take supplements and herbal remedies which can help to prevent diabetes. (See below for more tips on healthy lifestyles for diabetics).
Natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years. In more recent times, research has confirmed this traditional wisdom and there are now many published clinical studies demonstrating the ability of a range of herbs to support the endocrine system and pancreatic health and to maintain normal blood sugar levels.(Gregersen, S., et al. "Anti-hyperglycemic effects of stevioside in type 2 diabetic subjects." Metabolism. 2004; 53(1):73-6). (Curi, R., et al. "Effect of Stevia rebaudiana on glucose tolerance in normal adult humans." Braz. J. Med. Biol. Res. 1986; 19(6): 771-74)
What is Insulate Plus?
Insulate Plus is a 100% natural, non-addictive herbal remedy formulated by our team of natural health experts. Insulate Plus has been used for many years to safely support pancreatic health and promote systemic balance in the endocrine and circulatory systems.
In combination with a healthy lifestyle and diet which excludes excess sugar, unhealthy fats, stimulants, artificial preservatives and colorants, Insulate Plus supports the healthy functioning of the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas (responsible for insulin production). Insulate Plus can be used consistently, without compromising health or serious side effects.
The formula remains true to the whole spectrum method of herbal extraction, ensuring the bio-availability and balance of all the active ingredients contained in the remedy. This method of manufacture also significantly reduces the likelihood of side effects and maintains all active ingredients in perfect balance - exactly as nature intended!
Can I use Insulate Plus together with insulin and my prescription diabetic medication?
Yes, you can - but NOT without first consulting your doctor. Insulate Plus is very effective in controlling blood sugar levels and improving the body’s ability to use insulin.
This means that blood sugar levels must be monitored in people who are also taking prescription diabetic medicine as it is highly likely that their prescription medication will have to be reduced or even stopped altogether.
If your doctor is not familiar with natural remedies or is unsympathetic towards your quest for a healthier alternative, seek a second opinion.
Is Insulate Plus recommended if I am pre-diabetic, at risk for diabetes or have a family history of diabetes?
Absolutely! Many people with borderline diabetic symptoms or those at risk for diabetes will benefit from the regular use of these remedies.
Remember that it is also important to make sure that you follow a healthy lifestyle in order to effectively control the risks of diabetes.
What else can I do to help myself?
Exercise regularly. It has been shown that people who exercise regularly are 50% less likely to develop Type II Diabetes.
Eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables as well as foods containing whole grains, which contain Vitamin B and chromium, both known to be important in controlling blood sugar levels.
If you are overweight, lose it! Obesity is one of the major risk factors in Type II Diabetes.
Reduce your intake of refined and processed foods containing high fat and sugar levels.
"Insulate Plus has made the world of difference to me. I have recommended it to my sister because I am so impressed. Your service is also fantastic!"Jane M.
"Just so you know, I am anxious to receive the product because of the "miracle" it has worked for me. For the past 3 years, my fasting glucose had been rising by 8-10 points per year and the doctors thought it was time to put me on some medication so that it didn't evolve …I told my doctor that I had used your products previously (sea sickness medicine) and that they worked better than any prescription ever had and so I wanted to try your products for the high fasting glucose. I used a combination of Insulate Plus and Triple Diabetonic and [in 60 days] … my doctor was elated and so am I. Thank you for wonderful products that really work. Best wishes":Tony B.
"I have had problems with my feet and sometimes I couldn't sleep because of it. Since using Insulate Plus, this is a thing of the past and I sleep so soundly! I have used many of these products and have never been disappointed with them - nor with the advice you have always given me. Thank you!"Steven

Insulate Plus is presented in a 100% vege capsule and contains the following carefully selected herbs and minerals in therapeutic dosage:
Gurmar
(Gymnema Sylvestre) is an herb of Southeast Asian origin and is a well-known and highly respected Ayurvedic remedy. It is also known as the 'sugar killer' as it is said to remove the taste for sweet foods. More recently, Gymnema Sylvestre has been shown to be helpful in maintaining healthy blood glucose levels within the normal range. (Shanmugasundaram ER, Rajeswari G, Baskaran K, et al. "Use of Gymnema sylvestre leaf extract in the control of blood glucose in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus". J Ethnopharmacol. 1990;30:281-294). Furthermore, Gymnema sylvestre has been linked to the promotion of pancreatic health in animal studies. (Shanmugasundaram ER, Gopinath KL, Radha Shanmugasundaram K, et al. "Possible regeneration of the islets of Langerhans in streptozotocin-diabetic rats given Gymnema sylvestre leaf extracts". J Ethnopharmacol. 1990;30:265-279)
Goat's Rue
(Galega Officinalis) was traditionally used in medieval Europe to help support pancreatic health and maintain healthy insulin levels, and has more recently been investigated in clinical trials (Muller H, Reinwein H. "Pharmacology of galegin". Arch Expll Path Pharm. 1927; 125:212-28). Studies have also suggested that this potent herb may help to support the maintenance of balanced glucose in the bloodstream. (Petricic J, Kalodera Z. Galegin in the goats rue herb: its toxicity, anti-diabetic activity and content determination. Acta Pharm Jugosl. 1982; 32(3):219-23)
Maidenhair Tree
(Ginkgo Biloba) is highly prized in Chinese Traditional Medicine. Studies have investigated Ginkgo biloba as a natural antioxidant with regards to cardiac health (Shen J-G, Zhou D-Y. "Efficiency of Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb 761) in antioxidant protection against myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury". Biochem Mol Biol Int 1995;35:125-134). Furthermore, this herb has been shown to have great supportive capabilities with regards to the maintenance of healthy blood glucose levels within the normal range. (Huang, S. Y., Jeng, C., Kao, S. C., Yu, J. J., and Liu, D. Z. "Improved haemorrheological properties by Ginkgo biloba extract (Egb 761) in type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with retinopathy". Clin.Nutr. 2004;23(4):615-621)
Bilberry
(Vaccinium Myrtillus) has several active constituents which have been isolated from the berries and leaves of the bilberry plant, including anthocyanoside flavonoids (anthocyanins), vitamins and pectins, which are found in the berries, and quercetin, catechins, tannins, iridoids, and acids, which are found in the leaves. Bilberry also has excellent anti-oxidant properties due to high levels of anthocyanosides, further increasing the supportive health benefits of this remarkable herb. Regular use of Bilberry helps to support healthy vision as well as the health of the tiny blood capillaries which carry oxygen to the eyes. (Bone K. "Bilberry-The vision herb". MediHerb Prof Rev . 1997;59:1-4)
Chromium Picolinate
is a mineral supplement and highly absorbable nutritional form of chromium - an essential nutrient for sugar and fat metabolism. The adequate daily dietary intake for chromium is 50 to 200 micrograms, but most diets contain less than 60% of this intake! Chromium has been studied with regards to its supportive action on insulin production. In one controlled study, subjects were administered a placebo or 100 or 500 micrograms of chromium picolinate two times per day for four months. Those subjects receiving 100 micrograms twice per day demonstrated no significant improvements, while the group receiving 500 micrograms twice per day saw significant benefits in the glucose/insulin system. (Anderson RA. "Nutritional factors influencing the glucose/insulin system: chromium". J Am Coll Nutr. 1997; 16(5):404-10). (Martin J, Wang Z, Zhang X, Wachtel, D, Volautova J, Matthews D, Cefalu W. "Diabetes Care". Volume 29;8: 2006)
