Dbx-13 Scam (Page 9) (Top voted 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.

I am glad l read your experience about DBX-13 because l was ready to join HSI. Thank you for your honesty. I guess the government don't want to see any natural cure for anything. That wouldn't be good for the pharmaceutical business,that's why they won't let any one come up with a nutural cure for anything.

I'm not positive, but I believe pharmaceutical companies do sometimes use natural ingredients in certain pills. If that is true, then I would believe that at least 1 of the companies, (if not all) would create a product containing "gurmar" to fight diabetes and at the same time make lots of money. I think that will be a win-win situation. Also, if I'm mistaken about that, my other thought is why doesn't another (non pharmaceutical-non FDA approved) company make the product? They might have a lot less red tape, lobbying, restrictions and liabilities than a big name pharmacy.

I have been taking Gymnema Sylvestre for about two years. It is most certainly a "sugar killer" pill. I take the Source Naturals 450 mg two times a day. Along with this I take 1000 mcg of Chromium 1X/day. It helps reduce cell resistance to insulin. I also take 500 mg of cinnamon 2X a day (morning and evening meals). For my numb feet (no longer numb) and tingly legs (just barely tingly now) I take Cayenne Pepper (40,000 HU) 2X a day (again, one pill with breakfast and 1 pill with dinner).

My A1C has dropped from 12% to 5.5% over the last 5 years. Whether this regimen would work with you is anyone's guess.

how did you blend the three ingredients: cinnamon, okra and bitter melon? did you cook them together, are they in pill form?

The three ingredients you mention, okra, bitter melon and cinnamon can all be found in caplet form. I usually buy whatever supplements I take from Amazon or other health supplement sites such as Swanson or iHerb. If you Google the supplement you are looking for and add the word "caplet" or "pill" you usually find what you are looking for. I always try to read the reviews as well before I buy. There are some honest folks out there that will give you good information.

Good luck with your quest for better health!

Thank you so very much. I was just online last night seriously considering ordering this program, but something told me to check it out. I also have type 2 diabetes and always looking for something to get off of medications. I know losing weight would help, but it's so darn difficult. Again, thanks for your input.

Sherri, I have been waiting for an answer to this basic question for months, so don't hold your breath. Must have either been someone who only visited this website once or just another big serving of bologna.

Electronic communications are ruining the English language. Just because a message is a so called " blog" does not excuse the writer from using correct, spelling, pronunciation and grammar. Young people using their phones as their major means of communication are going to grow up with a total lack of grasp of what my generation used to call English. I shudder at what I see sometimes and it is now spreading into the printed media.

Spam for DBX-13 is still around. It's supposed to help you lose 10-35 pounds and drop your blood sugar to normal in 30 minutes. You can still eat what you want. It claims to also regrow your bones!

Just become vegan and no high holesterol any more. Many health problems will disappear. After 3 month becoming vegan I lost 13 pounds ( I didn't need it) and my holesterol went Dow from 129 to 80.
Food in America - it what makes us sick the most.

Vegetable Lady's Fingers is another name for Okra. That's why she put Okra in parentheses.

Please don't be so rude, is punctuation more inportant than the information being shared?
I have broken my right shoulder on morphine using my left hand. As I am naturally right handed this is difficult.
Should I have no say, because my punctuation is not perfect?

KB's info was perfectly understandable if not perfectly punctuated. Why waste time of such trivial things? Btw, one cannot start a sentence with "Else" !
