HypoglycemiCare is especially helpful in correcting
the symptoms of hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar. Hypoglycemia refers
to symptoms that come when blood sugar levels drop too low, and
that go away when blood sugar levels are returned to normal (with
eating).
Healthy people are able to maintain normal blood sugar levels for
long periods of time without eating. On the other hand, people without
hypoglycemia that go too long without eating can get the following
symptoms of low blood sugar,
- irritability, or crankiness
- headaches
- fatigue, feeling faint
- jitteriness or shakiness
People with hypoglycemia often find they,
- need to eat frequent meals
- crave sweets almost constantly
- get palpitations when they eat chocolate and/or sugar
HypoglycemiCare often works quite fast. For mild symptoms, people
usually notice some effects within a few days, but most will notice
sustained reief within 2 weeks. Once the symptoms are gone, we recommend
that patients continue the HypoglycemiCare for one or two months
before weaning off. Many patients will find that their symptoms
remain improved even after they've weaned off. If patients notice
that they are not able to wean off the HypoglycemiCare without their
symptoms returning, and their temperatures are low, they may be
able to overcome their hypoglycemia with the WT3 protocol
for WTS.
HypoglycemiCare is considered a tonic, which means that people
can keep taking a small daily dose (e.g. a capsule a day) if they
want, as a healthy habit. This is an especially good idea for patients
who have a family history of Diabetes (HypoglycemiCare may
help nip blood sugar problems and serve as a preventative measure).
HypoglycemiCare is aimed at providing support to all the different
organs that affect blood sugar, including the adrenals, the liver,
and the pancreas. It can be thought of as a "tune-up"
for those organs involved in glucose metabolism. The ingredients
are considered good for the body and there is nothing toxic in these
capsules.
Side Effects and Drug Interactions:
None known.
Using HypoglycemiCare
Patients should eat diets that are higher in protein (such as meat,
eggs, and fish) and lower in simple carbohydrates (decreasing items
such as breads, crackers, potatoes, and sweets).
Regular Dosage: 1 capsule 2 or 3 times per day.
Below are included more uses of HypoglycemiCare.

Conjunction With WT3
Protocol In Patients With Low Body Temperatures

Starting Dosage
|
|
HypoglycemiCare 1 capsule 2-3 times a
day
|
|
Comments:
- Many patients with low body temperatures experience symptoms
of hypoglycemia. These symptoms often resolve when the patients'
temperatures are restored to normal with the WT3
protocol. However, if the WT3 is not enough,
adding HypoglycemiCare can often help

Symptoms In "Fast-compensators"

Starting Dosage
|
|
HypoglycemiCare up to 2 capsules 5 times
a day
|
|
Comments:
- Some patients on the WT3
protocol are what are
known as "fast-compensators" to the treatment
(this term is explained in the Doctor's
Manual). Fast-compensators are more prone to instabilities,
including hypoglycemia, while on the treatment. HypoglycemiCare
up to 2 capsules 5 times a day can be very helpful in this
situation.

General Description
Brackets, [ ] indicate
the names of researchers
HypoglycemiCare holistically addresses all of the
organs involved in blood sugar balance (including the adrenals,
liver, and pancreas), but shifts the emphasis toward adrenal support.
Devil's Club (Oplopanax horridum) is an adrenal tonic which has
demonstrated a specific positive effect in achieving blood sugar
balance [Drum]. Jambul (Syzygium cumini) has been traditionally
used in India to control blood sugar levels. While largely used
as an anti-spasmodic in the west, Wild Yam (Dioscorea villosa) is
used in Chinese medicine to "brighten the eyes" and as
a tonic. It also contains diosgenin, a precursor for cortisol, a
key constituent in blood sugar balance [Buhner]. Licorice (Glycyrrhiza
glabra) prolongs the half life of cortisol, thereby helping maintain
consistency of blood glucose levels, and has repeatedly demonstrated
anti-stress and fatigue properties [Buhner]. Siberian Ginseng (Eleutherococcus
senticosus) has been in use in China for over 2000 years in the
treatment of fatigue, weakness, depression, forgetfulness, and insomnia.
It is known in the west for its adrenal and liver tonic properties
[Buhner]. Milk Thistle (silybum marianum) is well known as the western
herb for liver support par excellence [Buhner].
Ingredients:
Jambul Seed (Syzygium cumini) 45 mg
Devil's Club Bark (Oplopanax horridum) 184 mg
Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) 45 mg
Milk Thistle Seed (Silybum marianum) 92 mg
Wild Yam Root (Dioscorea villosa) 92 mg
Siberian Ginseng Root (Eleutherococcus senticosus) 92 mg
Actions: Blood Sugar Balancers
Indications: Hypoglycemia, Borderline Diabetes
Specific Indications: Irritable without eating, headaches
without eating, fatigue without eating, the need to eat frequent
meals, palpitations when eating sugar
Mechnasim of action: Nurturing the organs of blood sugar,
the pancreas, liver and mostly adrenal gland.
Dosage: 1-2 caps three times a day
Combination with CardiaCare:
Hypoglycemia with low blood pressure: CardiaCare
Combination with the WT3 protocol: Typically symptoms
of hypoglycemia improve after the WT3 protocol due to the
increase in thyroid metabolism. However, low adrenal function is
still a contributing cause of most hypoglycemics. Taking the HypoglycemiCare
helps curb the continuous food cravings, and therefore aids also
in weight loss. During compensation times of the WT3 protocol,
hypoglycemic symptoms can intensify, supplementation with HypoglycemiCare
can decrease the intensity. Many people after taking HypoglycemiCare
for three months will notice continued complete resolution of symptoms
even after they stop taking it. For many people prone to longstanding
hypoglycemia, a maintenance dose might be recommened.
Drug Interactions: The herbs used are blood sugar balancers,
so the chance of becoming too low or too high is impossible.
Predictive value: Hypoglycemia is very well treated with
herbal medicines. The decrease need to eat as often can be noticed
as son as within a few days to a few weeks. Long tem use of product
can result in a cure. Some patients might need to take it as short
as one month, or continue on it every day. These herbs can be taken
long term, and are tonics.
Lab tests: Reactive hypoglycemia does not always show up
on lab tests except during the moment of hypoglycemic symptoms.
Typically diagnosis is based on symptoms only.
Side Benefits: Some patients have reported increase energy,
increased body temperature, and improvements in regulating their
menstrual cycles.
Toxicity: None known
