Improve Diabetes with Gymnema Sylvestre
Improve Diabetes with Gymnema Sylvestre
Gymnema sylvestre has been used as a treatment for diabetes for
at least two thousand years. Its name is derived from the Hindi
name Gurmar which translates to "sugar destroyer". It dates back
to a time when the diagnosis of diabetes was literally made by
sweet tasting urine, so called "honey urine".
Historically, Gymnema has been used in the treatment of various
ailments and conditions from stomach problems and constipation,
to snake bites, and urinary disturbances. Probably the most
exciting use of this herb however, is for use in blood sugar
balancing and glucose metabolism. Not surprising, is that the
major portion of the research has been directed to blood sugar
control, and use with diabetes.
Today, several studies have verified the beneficial effects of
Gymnema sylvestre in helping to control blood sugar levels and
thereby improve diabetic control. An additional benefit seems to
be the ability of this substance to control sugar cravings and
also reduce sugar absorption in the intestine.
Another positive benefit of this natural substance is the
gradual effect it has in improving blood sugar metabolism and
balance, rather that the not so subtle changes that occur with
prescribed drugs. It also appears to be very safe in that the
hypoglycemic effects do not lead to dangerously low blood sugar
levels, but rather act within a normal range.
Fortunately in this day and age there are many companies that
sell preparations containing this valuable herb for diabetics
and pre-diabetics. Gymnema's ability to stimulate existing cells
in the pancreas to produce more insulin and function more
effectively makes this a natural for those felt to be at risk
for developing diabetes.
Knowing the importance of proper blood sugar control and having
the tools to do it in a natural manner can be extremely helpful
in preventing the various complications known to arise in
uncontrolled diabetes.
