What the anti-aging specialists do when they run into degenerative disorders is encourage pituitary function, part of which is to release the same amount of growth hormone that would be the maximum producible in a 22-year old. HGH is the body's master hormone. The outcome is that as the glands heal, pancreas included, they tend to normalize their hormonal output. The doctors say during their seminars that beta cells can regenerate and " particularly " type II diabetes improves, and that they've also seen improvement in a lot of type I diabetics too. In addition, a few other things such as the herb gymnema sylvestris have been shown to stimulate the regeneration of beta cells. regards, Duncan Crow http://philaero-wellness.com http://members.shaw.ca/duncancrow/ #410, 2556 Dingwall St Duncan BC Canada V9L 2Y9 --- live and help live... --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 Stacey, No, I haven't tried them yet. I hadn't thought about that... that maybe I'm not allergic to the insulin, but rather to the ingredient that slows down absorption. Sandy ------------------- Have you tried short acting insulins yet? Humalog and Novolog? If you're not allergic to them, it seems your best choice might be an insulin pump where you use the short acting insulins throughout the day for all your insulin needs. The short acting insulins don't have the same ingredients that make the insulin be absorbed slowly like the longer acting ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 My sister is waiting for a kidney transplant and would like to have a pancreas transplant also, but she's on disability, and the state of Illinois won't pay for a pancreas transplant. She would have to move to Wisconsin. Sandy ------------------------------------------------------ Actually, yes. But, as I understand it, only those who have already had a kidney transplant are eligible. No, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
