Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 Has anyone had any experience with healing using an Electro-Acuscope? My father, a diabetic with very poor circulation, has a sore on his toe that will not heal. In order to prevent amputation, we are trying Acuscope treatments. This is a last resort effort. I was hoping someone can give me a clue has to how effective this therapy is. Or does anyone have any other suggestions on what to try?? Thank you for your help.

I am not able to offer you an opinion on the therapy you're considering, however I am sending this article from the archives which may help you with your father's dilemma. It works for type II diabetes. A very real testimony from our archives detailing some very effective solutions!! I personally can attest to the efficacy of bitter melon, gymnestre sylvestre and fenugreek seed caps for reversing and healing both diabetes and diabetic sores...the very worst of these can be healed with these suppelements! We as a society are being deceived regarding this disease which as many others, can be healed with herbal supplmeents! Please read this message in its entirely before resorting to other more extreme measures, including the 'chopshop'. Thanks!

Please forgive my ignorance, but what does " D.C " stand for? To say research is still being done & the results are not yet proven is one thing, but to say that all indications are " garbage " is yet another. You ask for human studies. The info I sent earlier on this thread pointed to human studies. I am perplexed. Do you ignore them because they were done in India? Because much of the researches are being done by Aryuvedic doctors? Is any research or findings not sanctioned by the allopaths in America not worth your consideration? When I was diagnosed as a diabetic, my fasting blood sugar was 360 & I had a non-healing diabetic ulcer on my foot which I had had for about a year. For 5 months I followed the doctor's advice & took glyburide daily to maintain blood glucose levels & got my foot dealt with regularly by a physical therapist (weekly debridement plus various changes to my footwear plus various bandage changes & powder put on the wound). I hated the glyburide & how it made me feel. I could tell the glyburide was just not good for me long term. After doing quite a bit of reading, I discovered Gourdin, an Aryuvedic preparation of bitter melon & began taking it four times a day in conjunction with the glyburide. When my foot had completely healed, I told my doctor I was going to try going off glyburide & maintain my blood glucose levels with diet plus gourdin alone. My doctor was very much against this. She said at my age (56), I would not be able to control my glucose levels with diet alone. but when I told her I was going to do it anyway, she gave me some guidelines as to what was acceptable glucose control. After being totally off glyburide for four months, my doctor had my bloodwork done & she e-mailed me the following: >glycosylated hemoglobin Hb A1C--the biochemical measure of glucose >control over the preceding 120 days--and it is 6.6, which is only >slightly above normal. The normal range is 4-6.4. In short, you've >been doing pretty well over the past several months, so I don't think >you need to make any changes presently as long as you keep eating well. It has now been nearly 10 months since going off the glyburide. My fasting glucometer reading vary between 85 and 120, unless I have taken Niacin the day before. My post prandial readings never exceed 150 & are usually 125-135. A year ago, my fasting glucose was 360. I adhere to a strict diet -- but it is *not* the diet suggested by the ADA & the allopaths. I have just bought some Gymnema sylvestre tea (which I mentioned in my previous post on this thread) which I have not yet begun to use. Even if the experiment is not successful, what have I lost? $15 a month. And if the tea actually does regenerate my pancreatic cells? I will possibly extend my life by years and do away with all the old age complications of diabetes -- saving me much grief, physical degradation, and possibly tens of thousands of dollars in medical expenses. Aryuvedic medicine is far older than allopathic medicine. It is a much gentler approach to healing & re-balance than allopathic medicine. I do not think *any* branch of medicine is perfect in all situations. If I get shot by a crook, or if I were to be in a car wreck -- the allopaths are far better at trauma than anyone else. But when the choice is taking an allopathic drug daily for the rest of my life which has known bad side effects & leads inevitably to the degradation of my body's organs & functions, and taking Aryuvedic herbal preparations which may actually reverse organ degradation, I'll go with the Aryuvedic preparations.

There is a much more effective " cure " for diabetic sores. These types of sores are linked to poor immune system function stemming from the diabetes itself. In order to cure these `symptoms', one has to address the problem from the " inside " out and get to the root of the problem… which is the diabetes itself. My husband had similar problems several times when he cheated on the diabetic diet. There is no reason for the ADA and other diets to include refined sugars. Until one gives up all refined sugars the supplements will not be that effective. He cheated on his diet and so he had to bear the consequences. There were three sores on his leg that were inflamed and infected and the leg itself was a dark blue color. I'm saying this to let you know that we had a really severe case to deal with as well! My heart sank as I observed what refined sugar can do to the body! He came home from the doctors with the bad news that the doctor said his leg could not be saved. Yikes, that just wasn't in my future at all! We cannot take this laying down but do everything we can to turn it around. There is hope for diabetic sores, however it has to be dealt with internally where the problems all surface! First of all the diet has to be changed to exclude all refined sugars, including aspartame as well. He stopped drinking diet pop until his leg was healed. Aspartame elevates blood sugar as well, irregardless of what big pharma tries to tell you! In fact it has an even worse effect on sugar levels according to numerous sources! We started on a good organic diet of minimal fruits and lot of fresh veggies high in vitamin K and fiber. (cauliflower, broccoli, soups and salads, if you're interested I can go into more detail about the diet later). We soaked his foot in Epsom salts three times each day, at least ten or fifteen minutes as hot as it could be tolerated. The infection slowly started to recede with the good diet working to build up his immune system. Refined sugar severely depresses the immune system and destroys the healing B-vitamins! He agreed to eat an organic diet avoiding fruits high on the glycemic scale, refined white breads, etc as well. After a few days we started to see the infection go down. I also applied Rawleigh antiseptic salve in between the Epsom soaks. This also helped the infection tremendously! At the same time we were giving him Fenugreek seed caps, chromium (at least 200 mg 3 or 4x), magnesium 200 2x daily or more, gymnestre sylvestre 2x daily, Bitter melon (natures herbs) two or three times daily and alfalfa tablets 3x each day. I wanted to give him the dandelion tablets but it is a natural diuretic and it interferes with his meds so I could not include that in his regimen. We ate asparagus, spinach, and other foods high in folate and iron. We used stevia for his coffee substitute. We used whole grain waffles and other good foods for their fiber content to speed healing. Oat bran is very good for this although if its present in processed foods (cheerios) it wouldn't provide the same benefits. It has to be a health food store variety of oat bran (NOW or some other good brand). He used non-gmo Eden soymilk or organic half and half in his oatmeal and avoided all dairy including milk (milk is high in sugar and yeast content). After about a week of this, things started looking up for him. The red and soreness had gone out of the leg and it was starting to look more normal (of course he had to stay off it for the majority of the day as well). It took about two weeks for the leg to return to normal, but it was well worth the effort we put forth! When all is said and done, only a good diet and natural healing salves provide the needed benefits. Machines (he took therapy for his legs in the past) only can do so much. The body has a lot of healing energy if provided with the right materials to work with! Allopathic medicine has little to offer other than " cut, slash and burn " techniques! We now have little choice if we want to avoid a life of debilitating illness. The old remedies are the best! They help the body heal. There is no healing apart from the immune system. Even when the leg is removed, the body has to heal from that as well. Does anybody ever stop to think of that? If one little diabetic sore isn't healing, how could a larger wound from surgery? My niece had her leg removed and she is still in trauma. At times she can feel her leg still there! The wanted to take the other one as well, that's when she listened and started on the vitamins. the good news is that she still has one leg. Removing legs is a very lucrative business. Saving them doesn't bring in as much. Take my word for it, there IS another way! Don't spend your life in a wheel chair just because of what you're being told by an utter stranger who is after your money. They will not be there when you go thru your struggles afterward. We have many friends who are bedridden and in wheelchairs when just a few select supplements could have saved them all the trauma and pain! I hope that you find your answers apart from the ravages of orthodox medicine. They do not have your best interests in mind to put it mildly!
