Diabetes Drug Concerns Lead to Serious Questions

(NewsUSA)- For the more than 15 million diagnosed diabetics in the United States, some of the most commonly prescribed treatment options for their disease came under attack recently when two medications were found to almost double the risk for heart and cardiovascular disease.

The medications, Avandia and Actos, were found to increase the risk of heart attacks by 45 percent and death from cardiovascular disease by 64 percent, compared to diabetics who were not taking the medications -; according to a study published by the New England Journal of Medicine. Because more than 3 million diabetics in the United States use both drugs, the news leaves many patients and medical professionals eagerly searching for newer, safer ways to control diabetes.

Gaining national acclaim for their ability to combat diseases, natural-food remedies have continued to make their way into mainstream medicine.

In fact, the developments concerning Avandia and Actos have caused many diabetics to turn to treatments like Cinnergen, a liquid supplement made by eFoodSafety.com that combines 12 concentrated food nutrient extracts including cinnamon and blueberries. The supplement has shown promise in a closely monitored, clinical study to lower blood sugars naturally.

The results of the double-blind study, performed at Bucks County Clinical Research center in Philadelphia, showed that just one ounce of Cinnergen fully controlled blood sugar levels in 52 percent of patients tested when taken daily. The remaining 48 percent of patients were able to significantly decrease the amount of prescribed medications in order to properly control their diabetes. All of the test subjects also reported improved energy levels, moods, sleep habits and mental alertness -; lending a substantial amount of credibility to natural supplements' ability to fight serious disease.

With warning alarms sounding every week for yet another prescription drug being called into question or recalled entirely, it's important for those fighting diseases like diabetes to know there are more treatment options.
