Diabetic Drug Metformin Depletes Vitamin B12
*Many physicians and Metformin patients are unaware that Metformin depletes the body of vitamin B12. However, this side effect can be reversed by taking additional supplements of B12 and calcium.

Diabetics and Sugar
*Diabetics should avoid sugar; but how much? According to HealthCastle.com, on a 2000 calorie intake a day, a diabetic should consume no more than 50g (10 teaspoons) of sugar per day. Remember these sugars are fructose, dextrose, lactose, glucose, sucrose and maltose. More weight should be given to the amount of sugar used, than the type of sugar used.
Natural Sweetener
*Stevia a natural sweetener is three hundred times sweeter than regular sugar. It can be used for cooking and baking and it is an excellent alternative to synthetic sweeteners. Stevia is an herb that grows in South America. Stevia was use by the natives in Paraguay for centuries and by Japan since 1970 and available in the United States in 1990.
Other Sweetener
*White and brown sugar, honey, and corn syrup brakes down quietly in the bloodstream, causing cravings, constant hunger and your blood sugar to surge.
Diet Verses Regular
*According to Boston University, there is no difference between a diet drink and a regular drink. They are both linked to the same health problems. The results of the study were published online July 23, 2007, Circulation Journal website.

More Is Not Better

An intake above this level puts you at risk. Instead of assisting the body it can become harmful. Be sure to read the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA). Take vitamins for a specific medical condition, you will more than likely need to take more than the recommended amount. Do not take without medical supervision. (ConsumerLab.com)
