Can My Blood Glucose Levels Go Up?
A small number of users found that their blood glucose levels actually went up when they first started taking ELEOTIN®. The reason is simple to explain. These individuals discontinued or adjusted their current methods of glucose control before the full effects of ELEOTIN® started to appear. Remember, it is very important to continue with your current drugs and insulin treatments until the full effects of ELEOTIN® begins and when your doctor advises you to reduce your drug consumption . ELEOTIN®'s effects usually appear slowly, so please be patient.
One thing that should be mentioned is that many diabetics are anxious to experience the benefits of ELEOTIN®. So many people jump to the conclusion that “My diabetes is cured!” at the first sign of improvement. Nothing could be further from the truth. There are going to be many ups and downs. Only after a long period of careful and consistent treatment will you be safe to make such conclusions. You should check your numbers and levels such as Plasma Insulin, C-Peptide, and HbAlc to tell whether your diabetes is really being treated. A lower blood glucose level over a few days is just too unreliable to make the conclusion that you are cured.
There can also be a second reason why sugar levels rise. The increase in some people continued for a few weeks, and then subsided. Afterwards, ELEOTIN® began to work quite well. It is very likely that these people experienced the “homeopathic symptom,” or detoxification effect. The homeopathic symptom occurs when individuals are not accustomed to herbal treatments, which can cause mild headaches and mild dizziness. This homeopathic symptom is a temporary problem as people quickly adjust to all herbal treatments, including ELEOTIN®. This is usually not a big concern. If this happens to you, reduce the dosage by half or even to a quarter of the recommended dosage. Go back to the recommended dosage when these discomforts disappear.
Rarely, but it is also possible that people with serious liver problems and kidney problems may experience a sudden increase of blood glucose when they take ELEOTIN®. These people experience this increased level of blood glucose when they take any herbal product, not only ELEOTIN®. It seems like that the liver of these people tend to release the glucose stored in their liver when stimulated by herbal products they take. It is recommended that these people stay away from any herbal products. But, if they still want to try ELEOTIN®, they can start with 1/8 th of the recommended dosage and gradually increase the dosage as their liver and kidney conditions improve.
