The diabetic illness affects millions of Americans. In fact, it is one of the most common chronic diseases, with over 34 million people diagnosed with diabetes. But pre-diabetes is a serious growing problem in the USA.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 88 million American adults are aged 18 years or older. Diet and poor exercise are the usual culprits.
The problem, as we get older, the lesser our body is able to process certain diets that contribute to diabetes or the pre-diabetic stage.
FGF2 Study
A pilot study on the effects of Laminine dietary supplement shows it can help normalize blood sugar levels in subjects starting to have unhealthy blood sugar levels.
Subjects with slightly higher than normal Hgb A1c levels took two Laminine daily. Other subjects who were on blood sugar-lowering medications that had been previously prescribed for them took two Laminine daily.
The research shows a difference between glucose levels before and after 12 weeks of supplementation with Laminine.
All participants experienced a normalized down-regulation in Hgb A1c levels and saw a positive change in their sugar levels.
Although the result is promising, a much larger sample is needed to substantiate the claim.
