If someone stacked 150 one-pound bags of sugar on your kitchen table on January 1st, how long would you say it might take you to ingest all of it in the course of your normal diet? A couple of years? Five years? Longer?
The fact is that in the U.S., the per capita sugar consumption averages a staggering 152 pounds per person, per year.
You say that’s not you? Maybe it’s not. Maybe you only go through 100 pounds per year (check the labels in your cupboard: sucrose, corn syrup, caramel color and fructose are all sugar in disguise). But someone out there is ingesting hundreds of millions of pounds every year, and the consequences are dire. Seventeen million Americans are diabetic and millions more are borderline diabetic or hypoglycemic, and many of them don’t even know it yet.
In short: it’s an epidemic.
Obviously, if there was a way to significantly reduce the blood sugar level with each meal, the potential life-saving consequences could be enormous. That was the goal that HSI Panelist Jon Barron set when he began looking for a natural way to address the blood sugar problem.
For almost three decades, Jon has researched alternative medicine, nutrition, and herbal remedies. He is also the author of “Lessons from the Miracle Doctors,” and a monthly publication titled “The Barron Report” that examines natural treatments for a wide variety of health issues. Some time ago, Jon told me about his efforts to develop a way that diabetics might control their blood sugar and overcome the typical health problems they face. When I read the June 2002, issue of “The Barron Report,” I knew Jon had accomplished his mission. In it, he explains in detail how a unique combination of herbs, according to clinical trials, successfully regulates blood sugar.
He explained to me that the value of these specific ingredients is that they each use completely different mechanisms to address the key problems of elevated blood sugar, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure, with the final effect of not only complementing, but actually amplifying each other’s benefits.
Jon took his research to the lab for an exhaustive period of experimentation, trial and error, and constant tweaking to create his new blood sugar formulation. Once it was ready, a 6-month testing period followed, using two different methods. With one method, diabetic subjects took the formula with each meal and continued to eat their normal diet, while blood sugar levels were monitored once a week. With almost every subject the result was a significant drop of blood sugar into the normal range. One subject saw his blood sugar level fall 500 points in only two weeks, while another, who suffered from hypertension, was able to completely discontinue his blood pressure medication.
Another trial method used an A1C test that measures the average amount of glucose that’s been attached to red blood cells in the subject’s blood over the previous 60 to 90 days. The A1C measurement was taken just before the subjects began using the Barron formula, and then taken again after using the formula for just 6 weeks. As with the first trial method, researchers observed a significant drop in blood sugar levels, with some subjects even going from a severe diabetic level (9.0) to a completely non-diabetic level (5.7). Furthermore, with both testing methods almost every subject showed declines in levels of triglycerides, cholesterol, blood pressure, and weight-loss averaging 6-8 lbs per person.
Over the Labor Day weekend a company called Healing America officially launched this new product as Glucotor. And, as an HSI e-Alert reader, you are among the first people in the world to know of its availability.
Like the CoQMelt coenzyme Q10 product we told you about earlier this week, there is currently only a limited supply of Glucotor, so we wanted to give you the opportunity to secure some right away.
Healing America, which Jon has worked with frequently, has put together an introductory package that includes a 3-month supply of Glucotor, and two A1C tests. The idea is to use one of these tests to determine your blood sugar levels before you begin using Glucotor, and then use the other test at the end of 3 months to measure your progress. The cost of the entire package is approximately what you would pay to receive two A1C tests in a doctor’s office, so according to the company, it’s like paying for two tests and receiving the 3-month supply of Glucotor for free.
Healing America believes so strongly in the effectiveness of this revolutionary supplement that they’re offering an unconditional money-back guarantee for this introductory package. At the end of 3 months, any customers who are not completely satisfied with the results of the second A1C test will receive a full refund.
If you’re one of the millions who are suffering from diabetes or hypoglycemia (and all of the health problems that inevitably come with these diseases), visit the Healing America web site (www.northernnutrition.healingamerica.com) to find out more about how Glucotor may be able to revolutionize your health through balanced blood sugar. This is one of those “sweet” risk-free offers that just might change your life.
