I was wondering if anyone knew anything about salacia oblonga. has anyone used it to treat diabetes? i am pre-diabetic. I just switched to the Blood Type Diet and was interested in purchasing some supps from the BTD store. i came across something called "glycoscia". it's supposed to be great for diabetics or those who want to control blood Sugar levels. it has resveratrol, salacia root, quercetin, red sage root, and maitake mushroom.
it's a bit pricey for me, but i found a decent deal for it on ebay:

so, has anyone tried salacia root? i just wanna know more about it before i make a bid.

This is a reply to # 1,279,129Try Fenugreek. I am O, and no longer pre-diabetic, change of diet and Fenugreek did it for me. It is way cheap.

This is a reply to # 1,279,129There are a lot of herbs that do a great job of controlling blood sugar. Fenugreek, bitter melon, juniper berry, bilberry leaf, green stevia, etc.
If you are pre-diabetic though you can probably get by without any hypoglycemics. Instead I recommend chromium polynicotinate (not picolinate)200mcg 3 times daily. Chromium opens up the insulin receptors that are closed in type 2 diabetes. It is available inhealth food stores for about $6 a bottle.
Also stay away from Sugar substitutes like Aspartame (Equal, Nutrasweet) and sucralose (splenda) which actually raise blood Sugar and stimulate weight gain.
