More Reasons to Avoid Diabetic Drugs!

Two more studies published in the prominent Journal of the American Medical Association have raised questions about the safety of both Avandia and Actos, two popular diabetes medications.

Earlier this year, a combined analysis of more than 40 studies, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, found that Avandia, made by GlaxoSmithKline, doubled the risks of heart failure and raised the risks of heart attack by 42 percent.

This finding was confirmed by yet another combined analysis by researchers from Wake Forest University. This time they limited the analysis to four long-term studies. Their findings were almost identical, and Dr. Sonal Singh, co-author of the study, said the Food and Drug Administration should consider withdrawing Avandia from the market.

“If you use Avandia to treat patients with type 2 diabetes,” said Singh, “their chance of getting heart failure due to Avandia is one in 30, and their risk of having a heart attack is one in 220. All due to the drug.”

Additionally, a second study by researchers at the Cleveland Clinic, found that Actos, a similar drug made by Takeda, actually lowered the risks of heart attacks, strokes, and death by about 20 percent but, like Avandia, also raised the risks of heart failure.

There is a safe and natural way that will assist you in lowering and maintaining normal blood sugar levels and reversing the diabetic condition.

A Diabetic Success

“This is actually my second order. I bought the first package from a neighbor which led me to you. I have been on a low carb diet for the first time in my 56 years. As a result of the diet and your supplements I have lost 10+ lbs and have seen significant reduction in blood sugar results. My A1C dropped a whole point! In March it was 8.1 and in May it had dropped down to 7.1. My doctor was thrilled!”
