It also reduces VLDL and LDL cholesterol. The herb gymnea sylvestris and chromium supplements both increase cell sensitivity to insulin. The glyconutrients found in some foods and concentrated in Mannatech products make the cells more responsive to insulin by correcting malformed cell receptor sites. Insulin, like any hormone, must have properly formed receptor sites to adhere to or circulating levels will rise. Dietary inulin (sic) reduces circulating glucose levels in individuals

I don't remember the post exactly, but it sounds like 'muscle testing'. YOu hold your arm straight out and have a helper try to push it down while you resist. This gives your helper a baseline feel for your resisting strength. Then you hold the product/supplement/etc. that you want to test in your free hand and have the helper test your strength again. If you are 'stronger' - able to resist more powerfully - the product is good for you. If you lose strength, then the product isn't good for you. That's the basic idea, anyway. Could be hocus- pocus. I don't know. You do find differences, though. -Linda R Hi Pinkie. I don’t remember the post exactly, but it sounds

After I am done with this course of NMT I'm doing and its results settle out, i'd like to try the Inositol again. A couple appointments ago my Pr tested me for all the supplements I'd been taking, and almost all of them were doing more harm than good (!). So I am off them, for the moment. Makes me kind of nervous, as a lot of research and personal testing went into my choices of what to take...but the idea is that NMT has made them unnecessary. I AM rid of all food allergies :-), and don't get so sore when I exert myself 8=). My Pr took me off my thyroid supplement (Organic porcine source w/both T3 and T4) and put me on a homeopathic remedy to stimulate endogenous thyroxin production...But I don't even HAVE a thyroid gland any more (Nuked 12 yrs. ago) so I'm hoping Pr isn't nutso. Gotta give it all a good try or not bother, I figure. I had my husband muscle test me for my old thyroid meds yesterday, and sure enough, i was weaker when I held the tablets in my hand.

I'm sorry - I busted up when I read your post. This picture from 'Castaway' popped into my head - A ragged guy on a raft, adrift on the sea, DEFINITELY on the water and sea salt diet, closing in fast on the ultimate 'cure' for ALL the ailments of life.... But seriously, what IS the water and sea salt diet? Sounds interesting. -Linda R Hi Kady. I’m sorry - I busted up when I read your post. This picture
