Nature's Way Alpha betic Multivitamin, Energy Support*

Reversed My High Glucose Levels

That's right - I've battled high glucose levels for many years and have been warned by my physician that Type 2 Diabetes was lurking just around the corner for me. I've changed my diet, religiously go to Zumba (and at age 67 that's not always easy!) and still those darn levels just stayed the same for years and years. After my last blood work six months ago I decided to give these supplements a try because nothing else was working. Yesterday my endocrinologist walks into the room with a huge smile on his face and wants to know how I managed to completely reverse my high glucose numbers! I smiled right along with him and told him about Alpha Betic vitamins. He's not a huge fan of supplements but I think I may have changed his mind, at least about these. They are definitely worth a try. I am going to send him the complete information and if I here anything negative I will be sure to post that information. But what can be bad about not being a candidate for Tye 2 Diabetes? Nothing in my book

Great value and quality vitamin supplement for anyone ,esp w a bit of belly or lung issues

Started taking this vitamin (alpha betic) when i needed to lose weight back in 2000 and it was one of the aids that helped get my sugar cravings in check and energy back. It is also one of the few vitamin supplements that has enough alpha lipoic acid in it to make a difference along with the correct form of chromium ( picolinate) You do not need to lose weight nor be a diabetic to get a lot of benefits from this vitamin supplement. I have urged friends with low energy to take it or just a bit more belly than they would like to have while also encouraging them to eat less sugar and flour.Every one of them take it religiously still because they FEEL a difference when they take it. Dose You can take it once a day in the a.m. like I do or break it in half and take a.m. and p.m. Also can take 2 a day in divided doses.You would not take more than 2 a day because of the chromium and selenium content If you are taking another supplement that contains chromium ,( GTF) or selenium ( many "diet"aids, esp cinnamon and garlic capsules sold to diabetics have it ) you need to check what doses are in any additional supplement, even herbs. Do not exceed 400 mcg of chromium a day for an example. Take a copy of the contents to your Dr or nutritionist along with your other supplements is suggested

diabetic vitamines

My wife has pretty severe type II diabetes and she insists that taking these vitamins shaves at least 50 units off the amount of the sugar level in her blood. If she misses a pill she knows it. She tells anyone who will listen about them

These REALLY Help!

While some may question this compared to other brands. This vitamin has helped me a great deal over the nearly year I have been taking it. Making some basic dietary changes and other basics, I was able to turn around my Type II Diabetes and feel so much better. The specific nutrients and mega B vitamins in this product are part of why. When I stopped taking it, I noticed a difference in energy level midday, so it does what it says for me at least. I love that it addresses the specific health concerns for diabetics and started buying it online when I could no longer find it in my most frequented grocery store

A Diabetic's Experience

I've been buying these for my partner for years. So, no, I'm not diabetic. I have no horse in this race. My review is based upon what I have observed over the course of my partner's illness. First: There is no vitamin that will miraculously cure diabetes. It is progressive and incurable, for now. Second: Everyone is different, with different metabolisms, different genetics, etc. My partner has been taking Alpha Betic Vitamins for over 12 years. Not being a medical doctor, I can't say that the vitamins affected the progression of her disease. What I can say is that she doesn't get colds or viruses very often. If you've read my other reviews, you know I work at a jail. Needless to say, it is an environment prone to the passage of airborne diseases. Before the vitamins, she would get really ticked off with me because I would come home with a cold and she would catch it. No more. Once she started taking Alpha Betic vitamins, her immune system seemed to grow stronger. It's quite irritating, really. I come home sniffling, head stopped up, nose running, and she just keeps right on going. Sometimes she feels a little bad, but then she's over it. Me, I'm still dealing with cold symptoms. For her part, my partner firmly believes that these vitamins have helped to stabilize her blood sugar. They are certainly designed to support the special needs of diabetics. I would have to say that these are a great success and should be in every diabetic's arsenal

Love these vitamins!

I love these vitamins, there are just a couple things i don't like, but i wouldn't change that, it would lessen the quality of the vitamins. OK so the size is big! but don't let that scare you, i have a problem swallowing big pills, but these ones have a coating on them that make them go right down. This is how i take them, for anyone having problems taking any pills, i first swallow water alone, to moisten my throat, then i swallow the pill with a large amount of water. it goes down much smoother that way. OK so other thing is they smell and taste pretty awful, but it is only for a second then the water washes away the taste. the smell is all those lovely vitamins, and knowing they are potent by how strong the smell is, we can tell they are very fresh and very potent, i wouldn't want that changed either. I am starting to feel better like i have more energy. It does have a lot of vitamin B2. your pee will probably turn bright yellow/florescent yellow. all that is is the excess Vitamin B2. some people may need all that vitamin B2,others don't. But they add it in because so many diabetics do, and taking too much cannot hurt you. So you pee out the excess,So i am grateful that they are trying to give everyone the amount that they need. I really think they put so much thought into these vitamins, and even though they are a bit more expensive than the normal multi vitamin, i am willing to pay the price because it is reasonable and it is targeted support for diabetics.And from all my research about it, they included everything they could that would support diabetics while maintaining safety.I feel these are the best vitamins for diabetic people. I would recommend to any one

Best Diabetic vitamins i've tried so far

This was my first try when it came to diabetic multivitamins. I kept using them for months until I ran out. I tried giving another alternative a shot…..big mistake! I tried three weeks with blood sugar support supplements and have found myself tired and with less energy than with these. I have already re ordered more but I have suffered without them. Definitely go for them. The only downside is that you do pee in a neon green type of color. I guess from excess of B vitamin but an insignificant side effect if you ask me

Hope it prevents the development of diabetes

I don't have diabetes but it runs in my family - my mother and siblings and several of my aunts and uncles and cousins are diabetic. So I'm trying to hold the disease as long as I can. I began taking these vitamins to help with this quest. So far I'm 5 years past the age when my mother and siblings were diagnosed with this disease. I believe these vitamins are helping to prevent the development since I do admit that I don't always eat a good diet or exercise as I should

Work Well

It was well control your sugar level but I recommend that you will need to buy 1 more product call cinnamon plus chromium and biotin, both are good for your sugar level. I used only 3 days and see the different. First week, you will see your urine was dark and smell but after a 2 weeks later you will be regular and you will need to drink more water. My sugar level before was 180 and after i used this 2 brand products, my sugar level come down to 110 or less. It was worth to have

Best diabetic vitamin in the world!

This is absolutely the best vitamin I ever had for diabetes. If you have any kind of neuropathy pain this will give relief quickly. I believe the main reason is the generous doses of Vitamin B which are very important for nerve regeneration in addition it's 10 bucks a bottle
