Diabetic Support Product for Cats and Dogs.
This product contains the following :
Zinc
Zinc plays multiple roles in proper insulin function. Zinc is needed to help the pancreas produce Insulin, to allow Insulin to work more effectively and to protect insulin receptor cells.
In healthy animals, Insulin is secreted after carbohydrates are eaten and this hormone lowers glucose levels in the blood and drives sugar into the cells where it can be used as fuel for energy.
When Zinc levels are low, two things can happen. One, the pancreas may not secrete adequate amounts of Insulin so glucose levels remain high. Two, the Insulin that is released may not work as effectively as it should.
When this happens, glucose cannot enter the cells and remains elevated in the blood.
Chromium & Brewers Yeast
Chromium & Brewers Yeast increases the power of Insulin to process sugar so you need less Insulin to do the job and blood sugar levels drop. Thuswith adequate chromium, much less Insulin circulates in the blood. By reactivating Insulin, chromium alleviates some of the danger of "Insulin resistance" that comes with age.
Chromium can even improve Insulin resistance in diabetics.
L-carnitine is not an amino acid in the strictest sense (it is actually a substance related to the B Vitamins). However, because it has a chemical structure similar to that of amino acids, it is usually considered together with them.
Unlike true amino acids, L-carnitine is not used for protein synthesis or as a nurotransmitter. Its main function in the body is to help transport long-chain
fatty acids which are burned within the cells, mainly in the mitochondria, to provide energy. This is a major source of energy for the muscles.
L-carnitine thus increases the use of fat as an energy source. This protects against fatty buildup especially in the heart, liver and skeletal muscles.
Taurine
Taurine mobilizes fat and aids in the release of Insulin. Taurine helps to protect the membranes of the lens of the eye from the
buildup of polyols as the result of high glucose levels.
N,N-Dimethylglycine (DMG)
DMG is a derivative of glycine, the simplest of Amino Acids. It acts as a building block for many important substances, including the Amino Acid Methionine, Coline, a number of important hormones and nurotransmitters and DNA.
DMG has been found to enhance the immune system, taking supplemental DMG can have a wide range of beneficial effects including helping the body maintain high energy levels and boosting mental acuity.
Co-Enzyme Q10
Co-enzyme Q10 is a powerful antioxidant that is structurally similar to Vitamin E. It plays a crucial role in the generation of cellular energy, it improves circulation and stabilizes blood sugar. It also works well in
protecting the cells and removing toxic substances from the body.
Folate (Folic Acid)
Also known as folacin, folic acid or pterolgtutamic acid (PGA) folate is
considered a brain food and is needed for energy production and the formation of red blood cells.
S-Adenosylmethionine (SAMe)
Magnesium
Vitamin B12
B12 deficiency has been associated with diabetis.
Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine)
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin)
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine)
