Diabetes Reversed
I attended a couple of nutritional workshops at Abundance Acupuncture to learn more about diabetes and they started me on supplemental Chromium Picolinate. I also joined Curves in January 2009. When I visited by doctor a couple months later he said I was no longer diabetic, just borderline. I plan to do my best to keep this condition in check. Diabetes, Arthritis, and IBS
These problems made my life uncomfortable and in the case of the arthritis, problems exercising. In addition to acupuncture I used physical therapy. I was on several medications for my diabetes including Actos, Glyburide and Metformin. I felt great improvement in IBS symptoms and arthritis pain in four months and at that time I had been given the information by David about the negative effects of Actos and the danger to my body. I shared that information with my physician and he took me off of the medication and replaced it with Januvia. Due to that medication change, I lost 22 pounds in 6 months without making any significant changes in my lifestyle. This resulted in lower blood pressure and better blood glucose readings. Without the research knowledge of the staff at Abundance Acupuncture which they shared with me I would probably still be struggling with the above mentioned issues. I would recommend acupuncture as a means of healing and education about our bodies to anyone seeking a more wholistic approach to their health.
