[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2312553, member: 196898"] In my first post I was making the point that there have been extensive human 'trials' on that large continent, and they have been using Ayuvedic medicine for many years, but there is as yet no proof scientific that the treatment works even on individual components in the list. So again, if it was really the answer to a maidens prayer, then it would be accepted by mainstream health institutes and pharma by now. Metformin has a pitiful effect on blood sugars, but that was a healing herb (French Lily) that made it out from the test tube. Aspirin was another old wives cure that also did, as did digitalis (foxglove) But not so for those ingredients in the Curalin list. Their evidence is so far mostly anecdotal and mixed results. For example, I used Bitter Melon for over 3 months and thought I was getting good results. Then I stopped taking it, and I saw absolutely no change in bgl levels. I cut back on Metformin on another occasion, and within a week I saw my daily average rise by the appropriate amount (about 1 mmol/l), and it dropped low again when I restored the Metformin. That is the difference between a supplement and a medicine IMO. [/QUOTE]
