Diabetes
For thousands of years Noni (Morinda citrifolia), is used to battle a wide array of health challenges. In recent years, the health-enhancing properties of this plant are harnessed and made available for the benefit of people. This miracle from paradise is described as one of the most important health discoveries of twentieth century. Noni earned this praise through its powerful ability to help with a variety of health conditions and act as a natural immune system booster.
Thousands of people worldwide attributed improvements in their health to the tremendous, and often life-saving benefits in Noni. Recent scientific research in both clinical and laboratory settings validate efficacy of this ancient fruit. In addition, doctors and health care professionals around the world are praising Noni as their patients win battles against chronic conditions, many suffered from for years.
One such health challenge that many found Noni to help with is diabetes. Doctors and researchers suggest that Noni has the ability to strengthen the immune system which, in turn, help the body maintain strong insulin levels. As a result, many Type I and II diabetics have finally found relief from this often deadly disease in the form of Noni.
Many of the effects of diabetes can be controlled. While there is no cure for the disease, studies show that by keeping one’s blood sugar as close to normal as possible significantly reduces diabetes’ long-term complications.
A diabetic’s body is not able to turn food into energy properly. The cause of the problem is the body’s production and use of hormone called insulin. There are two types of diabetes: Type I and Type II. In Type I diabetes, the body produces little or no insulin. It is often referred to as juvenile diabetes because it usually starts at a younger age and is more severe. In Type II diabetes, the body produces enough insulin, (sometimes even too much). The insulin is unable to adequately enter the body’s cells to break down sugar into energy. In a Type II diabetic, the body has trouble properly utilising fats and protein. Type II is the more common type, accounting for nearly 90% of diabetics. It used to be referred to as “maturity-onset” diabetes.
Type I and Type II diabetes share a few similar symptoms. The most common of which includes : lack of energy, increased hunger, weight loss, frequent urination, excessive thirst, blurred vision, nausea, abdominal pain and weakness. While we do know that diabetes is genetic, or is passed on from generation to generation, scientists are not exactly sure of the precise cause except that the disease may be the result of a malfunction in the body’s endocrine and immune system.
Research had showed that if the immune system start to turn on itself - perhaps the result of an autoimmune disorder - it causes a complete obliteration of the pancreas’ beta cells or at least a reduction in number of functioning beta cells. This then affects the amount and purity and effectiveness of body’s insulin. However, if the immune system is able to ward off an attack, the integrity of body’s insulin will be maintained.
More refined tests now make it possible to detect faulty immune antibodies in blood well in advance of a person showing symptoms of diabetes. In some adults, these destructive antibodies may be present years before diabetic symptoms appear. This lag time is known as the “prediabetic stage.”
One of Noni’s effects is on the pancreas and immune system. Current studies revealed that Noni helps promote a healthy immune system or by either enhancing an already functioning system or by stimulating a sluggish one. In addition, as described earlier, Noni fortifies and maintains cell structure. This can be accomplished by Noni acting as an adaptogen that can aid “sick” cells in repairing themselves. This could apply to diabetes by either helping malfunctioning beta cells in the pancreas or by aiding cells that are unsuccessfully trying to receive and use glucose in blood.
Keeping a daily log of our blood sugar level is the best way to monitor any changes that perhaps may occur. A good recommendation is to check our blood sugar first thing in the morning (a fasting level) and then check it again in the late afternoon (around 4 p.m.) This will show how your body is metabolising sugar and responding to the Noni or anything else you have consumed.
Please note that a Type I diabetic should never substitute Noni for insulin shots. A Type I diabetic may be able to reduce his or her insulin. Using a natural supplement like Noni should be done under the supervision of a doctor.
