I received, it is emails like this that make everything worth while
The following is an email from Mandy, she has been with us since
the beginning of my madness to share what we know about the epidemic
of diabetes.
Here is Mandy's story;
Hi Julia, well I feel now it is time for me to write and give
others in this group an update on how things are going for me.I
am from the Oregon coast and I have type 2 diabetes for the last 10
years. I have struggled with high blood sugar longer than I would
like to remember, unfortunately I also battle severe depression.
Months ago my eye sight was getting progressively worse and my feet
were starting to tingle. After a doctors check up it was confirmed
that the disease that invaded my body was starting to break it
down. Looking for answers I can across Melabic. I purchased it
when it was released and I have been taking it faithfully for 4
months. I can happily report that has made a big difference in my
life. My blood sugar has come way down and the painful sensation
in my feet is nothing that it was and my eye sight not 100% perfect
has improved so much that I have no hesitation to drive anymore
compared to months ago.
I am a middle aged woman from Oregon who is quite active but
because of my genetic pool I have been predisposed to high blood
sugar. I can say I have changed nothing in my diet as I have
always followed a good one and I walk alot, the only thing I have
changed is taking my daily dose of Melabic. There is no other
explanation as to why my feet no longer keep me up night after
night and why now I can read the newspaper without a large
magnifying glass.
I do not want to say that I am glad you almost lost your husband to
diabetes but if he had not you would not be fighting for
individuals like us. Thank you for all your hard work and time you
put into what you do, I appreciate it more than you know.
Mandy

Some of you may have already read the following report regarding your
eyesight, but for those who haven't I encourage you to take a couple
minutes to read it.
How can diabetes affect the eye?
Your eye has a lens and an aperture (opening) at the front, which
brings objects into focus on the retina at the back of the eye. The
retina is made up of a delicate tissue that is sensitive to light,
like film in the old cameras before the digital age.
At the center of the retina is the macula which is a small area
about the size of a pinhead. This is the most highly specialized
part of the retina and it is vital because it enables us to see
fine detail to read small print. The other parts of the retina give
us side vision (peripheral vision). The rest of the eye in front of
the retina is a clear jelly-like substance called the vitreous
humour.
Diabetes can affect the eye in a number of ways. These usually
involve the fine network of blood vessels in the retina - the most
sever condition that can occur is diabetic retinopathy.
Affect - Temporary blurring
Your vision may become blurred for a few days or weeks while your
diabetes is first being controlled. This is due to the swelling of
the lens of the eye.
Affect - Cataract
This can occur in two forms:
young people with diabetes can develop a special type of cataract.
Although their vision gets worse, it can be restored by surgery;
older people with diabetes can be especially prone to developing
cataracts. Cataracts can be successfully removed by surgery and
usually it is possible to insert a lens implant. This procedure is
not for everyone.
Affect - Diabetic retinopathy
The most serious diabetic eye condition involves the retina and is
called diabetic retinopathy. This condition is very common in
people who have had diabetes for a long time. Your doctor may be
able to see abnormalities in your eyes, but there is no threat to
your sight.
There are two types of diabetic retinopathy which can damage your
sight. Both involve the fine network of blood vessels in the
retina. They are described below.
Type 1 - Maculopathy
This happens when the blood vessels in the retina start to leak. If
the macula is affected, you will find that your central vision
gradually gets worse. You may find it difficult to recognize
people's faces in the distance or to see details like small print.
The amount of central vision that is lost varies from person to
person. However everyday sight for getting around the house and
outside (navigation vision) will be preserved. It is quite rare for
someone with maculopathy to lose all their sight.
Type 2 - Proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Sometimes diabetes can cause the blood vessels in the retina to
become blocked. If this happens then new blood vessels form in the
eye. This is nature's way of trying to repair the damage so that
the retina has a new blood supply.
***** Melabic has the ingredients to help these blood vessels stay
healthy, you can read more by visiting Melabic.com *****
Unfortunately these new blood vessels are weak. They are also in
the wrong place - growing on the surface of the retina and into the
vitreous jelly. As a result these blood vessels can bleed very
easily and cause scar tissue to form in the eye. The scarring pulls
and distorts the retina. When the retina is pulled out of position
this is called retinal detachment. This condition is more rare than
background retinopathy and is more often found in people who have
been insulin dependent for many years. The new blood vessels will
rarely affect your vision, but their consequences, such as bleeding
or retinal detachment can cause your vision to get worse suddenly.
Your eyesight may become blurred and patchy as the bleeding
obscures part of your vision. Without treatment, total loss of
vision can happen in proliferative retinopathy.
*** With treatment most sight-threatening diabetic problems can be
prevented if caught early enough.***

balanced !!!! To find out how you can normalize your blood sugars

Although your vision may be good, changes can be taking place to
your retina that needs treatment. Most sight loss in diabetes is
preventable: early diagnosis is vital
have an eye examination every year do not wait until your vision
has deteriorated to have an eye test.
Your family doctor or optometrist can examine for diabetic
retinopathy.
Remember, however, that if your vision is getting worse, this does
not necessarily mean you have diabetic retinopathy. It may simply
be a problem that can be corrected by glasses.
I hope this gave you a bit of insight on how important regular eye
exams are. I book Tim & I in a year in advance so there is no
excuses for us.
