Does Limu help Diabetes?

Here is an eye opening statistic: 26 Million people have type 2 diabetes, Over 6 million of them are undiagnosed - Source: national Diabetes Statistics of the National Diabetes Clearing house

So what is Diabetes?

Type 2 diabetes occurs when your body either does not create enough insulin, or, it ignores the insulin that it is producing. What is Insulin? Insulin is a hormone that takes sugar (glucose) from the body and takes it to the body's cells, where usually it would convert food into energy. If your body doesn't have the correct manufacture of insulin, too much sugar remains in the blood stream, leaving body famished of energy. If you have excessive sugar in the bloodstream it can lead to harm to nerves, kidneys and even the heart can be put at risk. In addition to increasing your risk of heart disease, one of the most disquieting facts about diabetes is that it can produce or worsen many life threatening conditions. Many of these diseases can benefit from limu's nutrients and its multifaceted carbohydrate polysaccharide, fucoidan.

How can Limu affect Diabetes?

Limu contains the complex carbohydrate polysaccharide and anti-oxidant rich Fucoidan. Fucoidan promotes curing of the harm caused by diabetes by helping toward balancing blood sugar, lowering blood lipids, speeding wound healing and preventing future damage. So Fucoidan helps frankly with:

Balancing Blood Sugar Levels Eliminating highs and lows in blood glucose levels helps prevent damage to eyes, kidneys, nerves and the heart. Limu's polysacharride from Fucoidan help stabilize blood glucose levels by slowing the incorporation of glucose from the intestines into the blood stream.

Prevents Insulin Over-Response Similarly, fucoidan also keeps insulin levels in equilibrium. When too much insulin is released, hunger is enthused and can add to weight gain.

Improves healing Slow wound healing plagues a lot of diabetics. Fucoidan stimulates hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which boosts tissue healing.

High Cholesterol Limu's fucoidan alters the action of liver enzymes that control the way fatty acids are metabolized, resulting in a lower LDL cholesterol levels in the blood. LDL cholesterol build up (plaque) on arterial walls is a principal cause of heart attack and stroke. Scientists in 5 separate studies report that fucoidan is influential in preventing hardening of the arteries - a major supplier to heart disease.

High Blood Pressure The result Limu has on the above conditions also helps reduce the risk of stroke by alleviating hypertension (high blood pressure). Limu is able to recover blood pressure by lowering lipid levels.

Boosts the immune system Fucoidan's chemical composition contains identical antibodies and nutrient as human breast milk, which help bolster the immune system. Fucoidan stimulates production of fundamental immune cells, helping the body better cope against viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi and even cancer cells.
