Dr. Labrum discovered that the medications doctors so often prescribe for a myriad of conditions are a major contributing factor to peripheral neuropathy!
Dr. Labrum's research also helped him piece together several little-known, natural methods for repairing damaged peripheral nerves.
In this video series General Practitioner Liz Morris speaks to Research Dietitian Pam Dyson about key dietary strategies that have an evidence base for efficacy and safety in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
You’ve been diagnosed as prediabetic. What does that mean, how did you get there and what do you do now? Donetta Floyd, RD, LDN, a registered dietitian with Cone Health Nutrition and Diabetes Education Services, will answer those questions about prediabetes and provide tips to help prevent developing type 2 diabetes.

Diabetes mellitus (DM), commonly referred to as diabetes, is a group of metabolic disorders in which there are high blood sugar levels over a prolonged period. Symptoms of high blood sugar include frequent urination, increased thirst, and increased hunger. If left untreated, diabetes can cause many complications. Acute complications can include diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state, or death. Serious long-term complications include cardiovascular disease, stroke, chronic kidney disease, foot ulcers, and damage to the eyes.
Diabetes is due to either the pancreas not producing enough insulin or the cells of the body not responding properly to the insulin produced. There are three main types of diabetes mellitus. Type 1 DM results from the pancreas’s failure to produce enough insulin. This form was previously referred to as “insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus” (IDDM) or “juvenile diabetes” The cause is unknown.
Type 2 DM begins with insulin resistance, a condition in which cells fail to respond to insulin properly. As the disease progresses a lack of insulin may also develop. This form was previously referred to as “non insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus” (NIDDM) or “adult-onset diabetes “The most common cause is excessive body weight and insufficient exercise.
Gestational diabetes is the third main form, and occurs when pregnant women without a previous history of diabetes develop high blood sugar levels.
Per the World Health Organization people with fasting glucose levels from 6.1 to 6.9 mmol/l (110 to 125 mg/dl) are considered to have impaired fasting glucose people with plasma glucose at or above 7.8 mmol/l (140 mg/dl), but not over 11.1 mmol/l (200 mg/dl), two hours after a 75 g oral glucose load are considered to have impaired glucose tolerance. Of these two pre-diabetic states, the latter in particular is a major risk factor for progression to full-blown diabetes mellitus, as well as cardiovascular disease. The American Diabetes Association since 2003 uses a slightly different range for impaired fasting glucose of 5.6 to 6.9 mmol/l (100 to 125 mg/dl)

Hello, I’m Ty Mason from TheDiabetesCouncil.com, researcher, writer and I have type 2 diabetes. Today I’m going to answer the question, is Vitamin C good for diabetes. But before we get into that, make sure you download my free diabetes management book which also includes diabetes grocery shopping guide (foods to eat and avoid) by clicking the link: http://bit.ly/2g0NDAH
Citrus. Oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes, used years ago to combat scurvy. Why? They didnÂ’t really know back then but now we know that these fruits are rich in Vitamin C.
What is Vitamin C? Vitamin C (also known as ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble vitamin. It also is known as a powerful antioxidant. The role is plays in our bodies is to aid in forming and maintaining connective tissue, including bones, blood vessels, and skin.
There are other benefits of Vitamin C. A recent study at the University of Michigan over a 10 year period concluded that “Higher blood levels of vitamin C may be the ideal nutrition marker for overall health,” Dr Mark Moyad who conducted the study went on to say, “The more we study vitamin C, the better our understanding of how diverse it is in protecting our health, from cardiovascular, cancer, stroke, eye health [and] immunity to living longer.”
As one with diabetes, 2 benefits really stood out for me in that study: cardiovascular and eye health. Those of us with diabetes are at greater risk of heart and eye diseases.
The only “problem” with this study was that it used 500 mg of Vitamin C daily to achieve these results. The recommended daily allowance for Vitamin C is 75 mg per day. So unless you can really pack away the fruits and vegetables, you are going to have to take supplements to get those 500mg.
But before you go out and buy those supplements, understand that other studies show that those with diabetes also run risks if they have too much Vitamin C in their diet. Dr. David R. Jacobs Jr., of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis stated that, “Our results, if confirmed by other research, would suggest that diabetics should be more cautious than others about taking supplements.” His study looked at women over a 15 year period who were post menopausal. The results he is talking about is that those with diabetes who took heavy doses of vitamin C supplements — 300 milligrams (mg) a day or more — were roughly twice as likely to die of heart disease or stroke compared with women who took no supplemental C.
So, is Vitamin C good for those with diabetes? It is a good idea to visit your health care provider and be tested for Vitamin C levels before you make that decision. Understand that the studies I have mentioned, while finding seemingly opposite results, both carefully monitored Vitamin C levels in those under the study.
Vitamin C is good for diabetes. But one must also be careful of the amount they take daily, whether in fruits and vegetables or supplements.
I hope this answered your question is Vitamin C good or bad for diabetes. DonÂ’t forget to get your diabetes management book by clicking the link: http://bit.ly/2g0NDAH
Let me know if you have any other diabetes related questions.
Enough research has been done to demonstrate that altered vitamin D and calcium equilibrium in the blood may play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes.
Most of the observational studies have contributed towards the consistent association that exists between low vitamin D status, calcium or dairy intake and prevalence of type 2.
Along with calcium insufficiency, there are evidences that Vitamin D deficiency may negatively influence blood glucose level; concluding that combined supplementation with both nutrients may be beneficial in optimizing glucose metabolism.
