Re: Blood sugar numbers coming down...still working on it


The Zocor was likely prescribed because insulin damage of the arterial walls promotes cholesterol depositing on arterial walls. Type 2 diabetics cannot utilize their insulin in early stages leading to excessively high insulin levels. This is what causes the retinopathy, kidney damage, gangrene, and much of the heart disease. It is not the glucose causing these problems. The insulin is HIGHLY vasoconstrictive in high levels leading to rupturing of micro blood vessels, and tissue damage and death. The glucose causes neuropathy, excess urination, diabetic cataracts, and elevated triglycerides.

What the doctors are not telling people is that drugs like Zocor actually increase the risk of heart failure due to declines in CoQ10 levels. They are also notorious for causing liver damage.

What I mentioned earlier about chromium is its role in opening the insulin receptors so the cells can utilize the insulin. Normally insulin binds to glucose, then binds to an insulin receptor to get the glucose out of the blood. The insulin is basically the cargo ship, the glucose is the cargo, and the insulin receptor is the dock where the ship docks to unload its cargo. When the body is chromium deficient the insulin receptors close and there is no place for the insulin to dock and unload its cargo.

If you use a chromium supplement I prefer chromium polynicotinate. It is the same cost as chromium picolinate, but 300 times more effective. And the niacin molecules the chromium is bound to is also helpful to prevent insulin damage.

I recommend going to Medline and doing a search on chromium and diabetes.

Vanadium (vanadyl sulfate) is also helpful. It can carry glucose out of the blood like insulin, but can bypass closed insulin receptors in the process. It also helps to re-open insulin receptors in the process.
