[Introduction]

Konjac is a plant that is found in China, Japan and Indonesia. The plant is part of the genus Amorphophallus. Typically, it thrives in the warmer regions of Asia.

The extract of the Konjac root is referred to as Glucomannan. Glucomannan is a fiber-like substance traditionally used in food recipes, but now it is utilized as an alternative means of weight loss. Along with this benefit, konjac extract contains other benefits for the rest of the body as well.

The main material of the natural konjac gum is fresh konjac, which grow in virgin forest in Hubei area. We use advanced method to distill the KGM, aminophenol, Ca, Fe, Se which are good for health. Konjac is known as“ the seventh nutriment for human”.

Konjac Gum with its special water holiding capacity, stability, emulsibility, thickening property,suspension property and gel propery can especially adopted in food industry.

Researchers have been investigating a number of powerful natural agents that can help you stabilize your blood sugar, and once again, cinnamon has proven itself as a viable contender in the fight against diabetes, as the study in Diabetic Medicine reveals.(1)

One of cinnamon’s most impressive health benefits is its ability to improve blood glucose control.

For example, just half a teaspoon of cinnamon a day has previously been shown to significantly reduce blood sugar levels, triglycerides, LDL (bad) cholesterol, and total cholesterol levels in people with type 2 diabetes. (2)

The more you can make use of natural therapies such as nutrition and exercise, the better your health will be.

However, as helpful as supplements like cinnamon can be, they should not be misconstrued as cures. They are not substitutes for proper diet and lifestyle choices. You cannot properly address your diabetes if you still maintain a sedentary lifestyle and poor dietary choices — cinnamon supplementation or not!

How Cinnamon Can Benefit Diabetics

Below are five known ways cinnamon can be helpful to your metabolism:

1. Cinnamon can increase your glucose metabolism about 20-fold, which significantly improves blood sugar regulation. (4)

2. Cinnamon has been found to have “insulin-like effects” due to a bioactive compound, qualifying it as a candidate for an insulin substitute.

3. Cinnamon slows the emptying of your stomach to reduce sharp rises in blood sugar following meals, and improves the effectiveness, or sensitivity, of insulin.

4. Cinnamon actually enhances your antioxidant defenses. A study published in 2009 stated, “Polyphenols from cinnamon could be of special interest in people who are overweight with impaired fasting glucose since they might act as both insulin sensitizers and antioxidants.” (5)

5. A bioflavonoid found in cinnamon called proanthocyanidin may alter the insulin-signaling activity in your fat cells.

Other health benefits of cinnamon include:

• Supporting digestive function
• Relieving congestion
• Relieving pain and stiffness of muscles and joints
• Reducing inflammation and symptoms of arthritis
• Helping to prevent urinary tract infections, tooth decay and gum disease
• Relieving menstrual discomfort
• Stimulating circulation with blood-thinning compounds

Clearly, adding ample amounts of cinnamon to your diet is incredibly safe and inexpensive. Just remember, unless you are adding it to a proper diet — high in vegetables and extremely low in fructose and grains — it is unlikely you will experience any benefit whatsoever.

Speaking of grains, what about whole grains and diabetes?

Reishi Mushroom (aka Ganoderma, Ling Zhi, or Mannentake)

REISHI AND HIV
Called “the mushroom of immortalty” Reishi is one of the top medicinal plants in the Chinese herbal system.

Non-Toxic –
Reishi is non-toxic when used appropriately and can be taken daily on a long-term basis with few known side effects.

Interference with the effectiveness of some drugs (especially immunosuppressants) is possible.
It’s always a good idea to consult a qualified health physician (preferably someone with experience in complementary health care) before consuming any dietary supplement. This is not medical advice.

The “Great Protector”
Reishi is also known as the “Great Protector” because of it’s well documented ability to strengthen the immune system .

Active Components – Beta-glucan polysaccharides and triterpenes:
The active components of Reishi include both beta-glucan polysaccharides and triterpenes in the form of Ganodermic Acid.

The fruiting body (above-ground part) and mycelium (filaments connecting a group of mushrooms) are used as medicine. It’s now being shown that that mushroom spores contain up to 70 times more of these active constituents.

Increases T-Cells
As Dr. Andrew Weil writes, Reishi “has been the subject of a surprising amount of scientific research in Asia and the West.” Research shows that the polysaccharide beta-d-glucan in Reishi boosts the immune system by raising the amount of immune-boosting T-cells. HIV, the virus responsible for causing AIDS, attacks the immune system, specifically targeting these T-cells, reducing the body’s ability to fight infection. By stimulating them, Reishi strenghtens the immune system’s ability to combat AIDS and other diseases.

Anti-Viral
It’s also known for it’s anti-viral properties and studies indicate that Reishi inhibits the HIV-1 PR enzyme.

Now Being Used In the West
Western medicine is starting to embrace Reishi where it’s currently being used as an immune stimulant by patients with HIV according to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. WEbMD and other well-known medical websites also list Reishi as a treatment for HIV/AIDS.

An Approved Cancer Drug in Japan
Reishi contains over 400 bioactive components and is an approved cancer drug in Japan.

Interlukins, Glucans, and Canthaxanthin
They evidently recognize it’s abiltiy to stimulate interlukins which combat tumors, as well as it’s immune enhancing properties. Studies also show that the “glucans” in Reishi help immune cells bind to tumor cells. Another substance in Reishi called “canthaxanthin” slows down the growth of tumors according to “The Prescription for Dietary Wellness” by Phyllis A. Balch and other experts.

Red vs Black Reishi
Please note that Black Reishi is also used as a medicinal herb but is not as potent as the red variety due to it’s lower polysaccharide levels.

The “Medicine of Kings”
With all these benefits, Reishi is truly “the medicine of Kings.”

US National Library of Medicine
Numerous medical journals published in the US National Library of Medicine have shown Reishi mushroom to be effective.

Cancer Research UK (CRC), the City of Hope National Medical Center in California and the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
Health institutions such as the Cancer Research UK (CRC), the City of Hope National Medical Center in California and the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center are now pursuing researches and studies on Reishi mushrooms.

Toyama Medical and Pharmaceutical Universit
A study in Japan at the Toyama Medical and Pharmaceutical University indicated that “Ganodermic” compounds in Reishi were “found to be active as anti-HIV-1 agents.”

October 1998 issue of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin
Another study published in the October 1998 issue of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, found that triterpene compounds, found in the reishi mushroom and it’s spores significantly inhibit anti-HIV activity.
