         Current scientific research has confirmed the efficiency of many diabetes natural treatments. Herbs and other plants have been used for centuries as diabetes natural treatment. Only those herbs and plants that appear most successful, are relatively non-toxic and have substantial documentation of effectiveness are covered in this article.

    What a relief to be able to use natural methods to address this disease. I have used

    Here are some diabetes natural treatments for you.

    Asian ginseng
    In traditional Chinese medicine Asian ginseng is regularly used as a natural diabetes treatment. The evidence has been that it enhances the release of insulin from the pancreas and also increases the number of insulin receptors. A current analysis showed that 200 mg of ginseng extract per day improved on blood sugar control as well as energy levels in Type 2 diabetes (NIDDM).

    Bilberry
    Bilberry may lower the risk of some diabetic complications, such as diabetic cataracts and retinopathy.

    Blueberry leaves
    Blueberry anthocyanosides increases capillary reliability, inhibits free-radical damage and enhances the quality of the vascular system. In Europe, it is used as an anti-haemorrhagic agent in the handling of eye diseases including diabetic retinopathy. I heard for a long time how good blueberries are. As diabetes natural treatment, it makes all the sense in the world to me.

    A decoction of the leaves of the blueberry has a long history of folk use in the treatment of diabetes. The compound myrtillin (an anthocyanoside) is apparently the most active ingredient. Upon injection it is somewhat weaker than insulin, but is less toxic, even at 50 times the 1 g per day therapeutic dose. A single dose can produce beneficial effects lasting several weeks.

    Cinnamon - Triples insulin's efficiency.

    Fenugreek
    It's the fenugreek seeds that make the difference when it comes to using this herb as a diabetes natural treatment. The defatted sections of the seed that contain the alkaloid trogonelline, nicotinic acid and coumarin is what makes this an effective diabetes natural treatment.

    The pungent twosome - Garlic and Onion
    Onion and garlic have significant blood sugar lowering action. The principal active ingredients are believed to be allyl propyl disulphide (APDS) and diallyl disulphide oxide (allicin), although other constitutents such as flavonoids may play a role as well.

    Experimental and clinical evidence suggests that APDS lowers glucose levels by competing with insulin for insulin-inactivating sites in the liver. This results in an increase of free insulin. APDS administered in doses of 125 mg/ kg to fasting humans was found to cause a marked fall in blood glucose levels and an increase in serum insulin. Allicin doses of 100 mg/kg produced a similar effect.

    Ginkgo Biloba
    Ginkgo biloba extract may prove useful for prevention and treatment of early-stage diabetic neuropathy. Plus it helps with memory.

    Gymnema Sylvestre
    Gymnema assists the pancreas in the production of insulin in Type 2 diabetes. Making this herb an effective diabetes natural treatment. Gymnema also improves the ability of insulin to lower blood sugar in both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. It decreases cravings for sweet. This herb can be an excellent substitute for oral blood sugar-lowering drugs in Type 2 diabetes. Some people take 500 mg per day of gymnema extract.

    Pterocarpus Marsupium
    This herb has a long history of use in India as a treatment for diabetes. The flavonoid, extracted from the bark of this plant has been shown to prevent alloxan-induced beta cell damage in rats. Both epicatechin and a crude alcohol extract of Pterocarpus marsupial have actually been shown to regenerate functional pancreatic beta cells. No other drug or natural agent has been shown to produce this activity.

    The benefits of using diabetes natural treatments compared to taking drugs are many. They are safer, and get to the problem without the side effects that can accompany medicines. You may have to experiment with these diabetes natural treatments to find the one that works for you.

    You have just been given a group of at least seven diabetes natural treatments. I have had success using some of these herbs. Hopefully you will as well.
