Information for Diabetics about Herbs and Vitamins
I created this website to keep people updated with the latest peer-reviewed research about vitamins and supplements for Diabetics. Most of the research resolves around either helping to manage blood sugar levels, or helping to mitigate the devastating side effects of high blood sugar. I have a general news section where I try to keep up to date on interesting Diabetes related projects.
The research on this site is useful for both Type 1 (formerly known as Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus or IDDM) and Type 2 Diabetics. I have been a Juvenile Diabetic(type 1) for over 10 years, and so I have a personal vested interest to make sure the information on this website is accurate and unbiased.
The most important thing to realize is that some supplements certainly do have a positive effect for Diabetics and should be taken routinely to reduce the devastating side effects of the disease.
