Dbx-13 Scam (Page 5)
(Newest replies first)

In January 2013 - I recently purchased a subscription to the Health Sciences Institute (HSI) newsletter and got the book "Miracles from the Vault." I scoured the pages to find DBX-13 which they advertised as the diabetes miracle cure, and couldn't find it anywhere. I called HSI, and after three attempts and by threatening to take them to court for false advertising, a response finally came by email. DBX-13 is called X-Cravings. But get this... it is no longer being manufactured. X-Cravings appears to be a formula to help you stop craving food... a diet product... and I guess they apparently felt this would help you lose weight which would help your diabetes. I placed a call to the manufacturer of X-Cravings, Nutricology. Tel: (800)545-9960 who claims they don't know that X-Cravings was called DBX-13 by HSI, and they said they discontinued X-Cravings last year (2013). They also don't have a replacement product for it either. I hate when companies like HSI scam you by offering you hope that doesn't exist, which is why I am posting this information.

Thank you so much for sharing this information. I was ready to try this, but because I read your post, I quickly decided to not order this...

There are so many scams on ths web that it is so hard to believe what is true and what is a lie...

Thank you again...

Did you just eat okra in any form and how much, how often. Also how much lemon and cinnamon and in what form? I'd really appreciate more information. Thanks for your input!

Had assumed that few people had an A1c level that high, and that if they did they wouldn't be using this discussion forum for nonprofessional advice.
All I asked for was how much your A1C had dropped because of your diet.
Thanks

not so fast. actually, the best a1c range is about 6. if he were say 14 and lost between 2 to 2 and 1/2 points each time for three tests, then i would say he is now in the perfect range. what he didn't do is tell us how high he was to start. i think losing between 6 and 8 points is awesome

Axne, I would really like to know how much, if any, your diet has helped your A1c.
My sugar is highest when I first get up in the morning. Sometimes makes me wonder if stress has more to do with it than carbs.
Thanks.

please understand- you can NOT eat NO carbs- it isn't healthy. you need at least 60 carbs a day. yes it should come from healthy veggies. you should also skip the fat from meat- which is not healthy for you. lean meat is best.

a real recipe for disaster is having too strict of a diet. you need to allow yourself something off your diet at least once a week - but a very tiny amount. my doctor suggested a peanut-butter cheese cracker.

but before you think you can eliminate carbs from your diet, please be aware of the dangers. and remember it is not a diet- it is a life change. if you can change your eating habits, you can gain control.

don't think for an instant that you can diet for a week or two and then eat anything you want. even with supplements you can't. what i do is go ahead and purchase the things i would love to eat, cut them into bite sizes, and then freeze them. they are each put in a sandwich bag, then in a big bag. meanwhile i focus on fruit and veggies and slushes made from them. if i find myself absolutely craving, i take one bite from the bag. often by the time it defrosts, most of the craving has passed.

if i am still craving, then i allow myself that one bite- and i do take my bolus to cover it.

the one thing i do not do is force myself to live on less than 60 - 64 carbs a day. however, that even takes discipline. it is easy to go over in just two meals.

Wish you would give more detail about your cinnamon and lady finger (okra) remedies, or maybe a link. Thanks!

You can download the book. In fact, almost any book you get told about through these types of commercials are actually posted somewhere on the internet and shared. They are often part of the group of writings called public license.

No reason to buy anything just to read a book.

I got HSI's book this year, and Jenny recommends two products for type II diabetes, Berberine and GlucoComplete. Both work well. And you must also watch you diet by eliminating most carbs, and for the most part getting your carbs only from leafy greens high in potassium. I don't like Beet Greens, or Swiss Chard, and am not a fan of Kale, and found Bok Choy to be very tasty. Dr. Berg has said to eat 4700mg a day of this to reverse you insulin resistance, and I have found with the Berberine and GlucoComplete that you can get by on less. Anyway, I no longer take any medications, my A1C is at 5.5, and my type II is in complete remission. So who needs DBX-13, and yes, you can still trust Jenny. She saved my life with the Berberine, or the GlucoComplete. Just saying........

HSI's Jenny Thompson's advertisement also mentions BMP's for arthritis pain, Nitric Oxide for high blood pressure, and Policosanol(sp) to battle high cholesterol(LDL). I'm searching online for any info on these too and I will post what info I find. Thanks for the heads-up on HSI and it's bogus DBX-13.

Post 141, Beetle: It may have been phony. I couldn't get my comment to post, because the board kept asking me for more. So I finally quoted him (forgetting to put quote marks) and put my comment below. The bottom paragraph is mine, not the top one. Sorryl.

If you lost 2-2 1/2 points on your A1c each of your last 3 checkups, that would be a total of 6-7 1/2 points which would put most people into a dangerously low blood sugar
range which makes your story sound phony.

Sorry, everyone. Post 139: I meant to say my glucose dropped from 200, not 299. I hope nobody got impressed.

Post 68: Martha, It sounds like you are on a special program. I paid a lot of money to be in a program such as you are describing, and I lost 50 pounds, dropped my blood sugar from 299 down to 100, and reduced my collestrial to good levels. I am now off of the program and numbers ae climbing again. Where did you get the information that led you on such a dist?

I have been using Sentra5 for the last year. The results have been very good. My A1c has been dropping 2 to 2 1/2 points every 6 months for three consecutive blood tests.

Thanks, Mark. I may try it.

The problem with these posts is that if you don't identify the person of the response, you don't know who the responder is referencing. In many cases I can tell by context, but not always.

There are natural supplements (as in not made in a lab) that can control glucose, but diet and exercise are first in healing your body. Type 2 can be reversed through avoiding bad carbs.

Your diabetes, if type II, can be fully controlled, if you can be disciplined. Your diet must be under control. Eat meat and fats, NO carbs. The only carbs you can have will come from healthy, mostly organic vegetables. You need to eat about 4700mg of potassium laden vegetables. Google up the "30 highest potassium vegetables" which is a good list. Out of those I chose Bok Choy. I found it hard to eat the 7-8 cups daily which is needed to get to the 4700mg of potassium. So you can use your blender to make smoothies and just drink your veggies down. The potassium helps your liver to become less insulin resistant, and your blood sugar levels will decrease.

The next thing I did, which I got from Jenny Thomson at HSI was to take Berberine from Dr. Whitaker (about $10/month) and GlucoComplete form Real Advantage (about $50/month). It takes about 1-3 months for both to work. They say that one can work just fine, I'm trying both for right now, and likely will later simply just go with Berberine because of cost.

I got my A1C down to 6.0 just on the Bok Choy diet, and was in complete remission from my type II. After taking the Berberine and GlucoComplete for a month, my A1C dropped further to 5.5, and may go even lower. Jenny said that with these two supplements that you could cheat on the no carb diet, and enjoy so things which spike your blood sugar, the Berberine and the GlucoComplete will bring your blood sugar back into control in about an hour. I tried it, and that's exactly what happened.

So no more type II, fully under control, no more meds for it, and one happy camper. These ideas came from Jenny Thomson at HSI and Dr. Berg who has many great videos you can Google up on YouTube. Enjoy.
