How Alpha Lipid colostrum can help People with Diabetes?

Share it Please
There are likely to be a number of mechanisms behind how colostrum can assist diabetes. The specific mechanism that is directly linked is through insulin like growth factor (IGF), a component that naturally occurs in colostrum. 

IGF assists in the regulation of blood sugar levels and improves the utilisation of glucose – a diabetic has difficulty using glucose, commonly due to insulin resistance which prevents cellular uptake of glucose from the blood (type II) or due to insufficient insulin production and possibly insulin resistance (type I).

Colostrum can assist in the body’s response to signals to take glucose into the cells thereby lowering blood sugar levels. The other well known effects of colostrum such as balancing of the immune system and restoration of the gut possibly play an indirect role in the management of blood sugar levels by optimising digestion, absorption and general health.

These are not drugs and the recommendation of products and lifestyle changes are not intended to offer therapeutic cures. Individual results from the use of nutritional products may vary. It is advisable to discuss with a medical practitioner the use of these as nutritional support.
