Bitter Melon and Diabetes Success

[SusanGene]

We just ordered a bottle of DBcure and are wondering if anyone has tried it.
It's guaranteed to cause your glucose numbers to be significantly lower within 2 weeks.

I guess no one has heard of it. Anyway, it did what it said it would:
it lowered my DH's glucose by 50 pts in 4 days!! But, here' the rub:
it won't go any lower. It is still 150 taking one DBcare a day and that's 50 pts lower, yes, but it is stuck at 150
Maybe in another week it'll be lower??

it's DBcare ; not DBcure. darn.

My husband, a type II, was diagnosed seven years ago. His glucose had been 200-215 on Amaryl and Actos and the doctor said he has to take insulin.
I got on the net and looked up alternatives and found DBcare, the main ingredient being bitter melon, used for hundreds of years in India and China.
Generally, if we lived in India we'd not be on Actos; we'd be on bitter melon.
I bought a bottle of DBcare and in 3 days his glucose was down 50 (fifty)
points. But it was still too high. I bought a cheap bottle of bitter melon. Last night he took his DBcare and one of my bitter melon pills. This morning his glucose is 114. I'm thrilled but I wonder about him lowering it too fast. He sees his doctor on Jan 22 and I cannot Wait to see how he reacts to this 114 number after all the 200's he has seen.
I hope this will be useful to someone else.

Many herball supplements can help with insulin resistance and significantly lower glucose numbers in diabetes. Keep in mind that not all of these things work for all people. Also, just because it works now, does not mean that it will continue to. Diabetes is a progressive disease. The better he continues to take care of himself (not relying solely on the supplement) the better off he will be.

Don't get me wrong. I think it's great that his numbers have gone down. And I'm sure he's feeling better. Just don't forget to continue to be vigilant.

Take care.
