How It Works
The full line of Diabetes Essentials™ supplements has been created to
help support the variety of nutritional needs of people with type 2 diabetes. Whether
you're concerned about blood sugar,
heart health or are looking for a
multivitamin perfectly formulated for people with type 2 diabetes, there
is a Diabetes Essentials supplement that's right for you.
The Science Behind Diabetes EssentialsTM Blood Sugar Health
Research conducted at the Harvard School of Public Health and Johns Hopkins University has suggested that there is
a direct link between low chromium levels and the occurrence of cardiovascular disease
in people with diabetes. Combining chromium picolinate (to aid in healthy insulin
function) with the B vitamin biotin (to support healthy insulin regulation) to create
Diachrome®, even better results are seen. Studies published in medical
journals such as The American Journal of Medical Science and Diabetes Technology
and Therapeutics support the benefits of this combination in the regimen of people
with type 2 diabetes. As a key ingredient in Diabetes Essentials Blood Sugar Health,
Diachrome shows results in as little as 30-90 days when taken once a day.
Here's how the ingredients in Diachrome (Chromium Picolinate and Biotin) work together
to help
you feel better:
- Chromium is what's called a 'cofactor' for insulin function, which means it helps
your insulin do its job better.
- Picolinate refers to picolinic acid, a natural substance that is found in human
breast milk that helps absorb minerals into your cells.
- Biotin is a B vitamin important to healthy pancreatic and liver function.
This is important because:
- Your pancreas' job is to produce the insulin your body needs.
- Your liver's job is to act as the body's filter and convert glucose to glycogen.
At the same time it is maintaining a proper level of glucose in the blood.

The Science Behind Diabetes Essentials™ Heart Health
Research has shown that higher magnesium intake is associated with reduced risk
of the individual risk factors that make up metabolic syndrome compared with those
with the lowest intake. In addition, low taurine and magnesium levels have been
found in patients after heart attacks. As the two key ingredients in Diabetes Essentials
Heart Health, magnesium and taurine work to strengthen every organ in the body, particularly the heart, muscles and kidneys.
In addition, taurine functions to help normalize potassium flow and stabilize cell
membranes in the heart. Unlike other magnesium supplements, Diabetes Essentials
Heart Health contains organic magnesium, which is more readily absorbed by the body.
The Science Behind Diabetes Essentials Nutrition To Go™ Multivitamin Formula
In addition to glucose metabolism issues, people with type 2 diabetes typically
struggle with nutrition, heart disease and low energy. With 14 essential vitamins and minerals
to provide nutritional support for people with type 2 diabetes, the ingredients
in Diabetes Essentials Multivitamin Formula
include vitamins B and C for energy, chromium picolinate for blood sugar, magnesium for heart health as well as antioxidants for immune
health.
