Never underestimate the cures in the cupboard and the weeds in the garden. I have decided I want to be remembered as someone who encouraged the appreciation of dandelions.

I don't even know what this means. Can you break it down into layman's plain English for me. :-) I'm a type II diabetic and would be very interested in this. -- Sandy Shop for everyone on your holiday list at Sannicron Gifts 'n' More!

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Some of my native American families swear by taking a cup of Queen Ann's lace every day to keep diabetes under control. They gather the seedpods and call them God's tea basket... Of course that's no cure for full blown diabetes, but I've known several old ladies who used them and swore it's what kept them from getting worst. One of my friends also gave it to her daughter when pregnant and diabetes surfaced during pregnancy. doctor was surprised how stable she was, mother never told the Doc what she gave her daughter, but I helped her that year to gather.. Diabetes is a serious illness, nothing to mess with and needs a Doctors supervision. I am just relaying what I have observed. C-M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 Cinnamon extract (traditional herb) potentiates in vivo insulin-regulated glucose utilization via enhancing insulin signaling in rats. Cinnamon extract (traditional herb) - I don't know what they were referring to and it probably needs to be looked up to see exactly what this is. Is it Tradtional Chinese? Traditional Cinnamon? I dunno Potentiates - gives action to In vivo - in the living body (ie not dead), and not in a test tube insulin regulated glucose untilzation glucose - sugar used in the blood via enhancing insulin signaling in rats So basically, Cinnamon Extract gives action in the body to insulin - regulated (pancreas/ pancreatic) glucose (sugar) use via enhancing insulin (the augmentation of pancreatic) signaling in rats. (Making the pancreas make more insulin to combat the blood sugar) Ain't that clear as mud? LOL Jill Mc.
