EHL: The Essentials of Healthy LivingSM
Blood Sugar
Blood sugar imbalances can signify a disorder in carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism, and can lead to hypoglycemia and/or diabetes. Chronic blood sugar problems greatly increase the risk of adrenal exhaustion, heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and loss of nerve function. Diet and lifestyle factors play a significant role in regulating blood sugar levels. Incorporating key nutritional supplements and making positive dietary and lifestyle modifications can make a dramatic health difference. It is essential that diabetic individuals consult with their physician and carefully monitor their blood sugar levels because insulin requirements or drug levels may need to be adjusted when changing or adding elements in your diet.

Optional Products for Blood Sugar Balancing
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Alpha lipoic acid is an antioxidant able to scavenge both water and fat-soluble free radicals within cells or in intracellular spaces. Alpha lipoic acid also extends the life of Vitamins C and E. In fact, it has been used in Germany for over 30 years to successfully address diabetic neuropathy in dosages of 300 mg to 600 mg daily. Alpha lipoic acid improves glucose metabolism, increases insulin sensitivity, improves blood flow to peripheral nerves, and stimulates the regeneration of nerve fibers. Alpha lipoic acid plays a crucial role in the metabolism of both fats and carbohydrates into energy.

Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that protects cellular membranes from damage and has been found to have a beneficial effect on diabetic complications. For example, Vitamin E helps to prevent free radical damage to LDL cholesterol, improves the functioning of blood vessels, enhances the rate of transmission for electrical impulses through the nervous system, increases blood flow to the eye, and addresses diabetic retinopathy. Pathway SUPER E 400 is a mix of 400IU of natural d-alpha, beta, delta, and gamma-tocopherol. This comprehensive blend gives you even more complete benefits than just d-alpha tocopherol taken alone.
