Doctors Now Warn Strongly Against the Complications of Diabetes

(Newswire.net — May 25, 2020) Orlando, FL — One of the most common conditions nowadays is diabetes, which is still incurable. Experts have long been stressing the importance of managing the condition to reduce the risk of complications. 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reveals that diabetes is the seventh top cause of mortality worldwide. 

Doctors warn that when diabetes is not controlled, it can lead to serious health issues. It could lead to amputations, vision loss, and stroke and even death due to heart attack. 

According to Lucille Hughes, diabetes alone doesn’t cause health complications – its uncontrolled diabetes that causes health problems.

Hughes is a certified diabetes educator and director of diabetes education at South Nassau Communities Hospital in Oceanside, New York.

Dr. Lorena Lewy-Alterbaum says that diabetes is called the silent killer for a reason.

Lewy-Alterbaumis an endocrinologist with Memorial Regional Hospital South who’s also in private practice in Hollywood, Florida.

Health authorities recommend taking medications to manage the condition. This particularly includes having healthy diet and lifestyle, which has long been found to be extremely helpful for overall health. 

Dr. Gregory Dodell says that in its most extreme form, amputation of a limb may occur because of poor circulation or infections occurring when you have neuropathy.

Dodell is an assistant professor of endocrinology, diabetes and bone disease at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine, who is also in private practice at Central Park Endocrinology in New York.

Natural remedies like milk thistle have been widely studied due to their diabetes-fighting benefits. Milk thistle contains silymarin, which in combination with fatty acids and antioxidants can work together against the condition.

More particularly according to experts, it aids in regulating levels of insulin and blood sugar. Previous research has long demonstrated milk thistle’s ability to enhance control of blood sugar in people with diabetes.

A 2006 study was published in Phytotherapy Research.

It involved 51 individuals with type 2 diabetes treated with silymarin. It has been found they exhibited a significant reduction total cholesterol and LDL (“bad”) cholesterol. 

What makes its use even more beneficial is that the silymarin it contains aided in regulating the blood sugar levels of the participants.

In laboratory tests, milk thistle was also able to fight insulin resistance. Some other studies have even shown it fights diabetes-related kidney damage, which is also called diabetic nephropathy. 

A 2005 report was published in Medical Hypothesis. 

In this research, the silibinin found in milk thistle combined with resveratrol aided in reversing insulin resistance. They have been found to work against the IKKbeta, which is an enzyme shown to disrupt insulin signaling.

Divine Bounty Milk Thistle is a formula found to be helpful in delivering the natural remedy’s healing goodness (http://www.amazon.com/Milk-Thistle-Supplement-Standardized-Extract/dp/B01LWI4A51).
