Two Main Types Of Diabetes
There are 2 main types of diabetes:
Type 1 - Beta Cells Stop creating Insulin
Type 2 – Either Body does not create enough
insulin or cells become insulin resistant
Type 1 Diabetes
• Type 1 diabetes is when the beta cells in the
pancreas stop making insulin. The illness and
symptoms develop quickly (over days or weeks)
because the level of insulin in the bloodstream
becomes very low.
• Type 1 diabetes used to be known as juvenile,
Type 2 Diabetes
• With type 2 diabetes, the illness and symptoms tend to
develop gradually (over weeks or months). This is because
in type 2 diabetes you still make insulin (unlike type 1
diabetes). However, you develop diabetes because:
• You do not make enough insulin for your body's needs; OR
• The cells in your body do not use insulin properly. This is
called insulin resistance. The cells in your body become
resistant to normal levels of insulin. This means that you
need more insulin than you normally make to keep the
blood glucose level down; OR
• A combination of the above two reasons.
• Type 2 diabetes is much more common than type 1
diabetes 90% of diabetes sufferers are type 2

Diabetes Kills
• Chronically high blood sugar levels causes
nerve damage, which can result in kidney
disease, blindness and amputation.
• It estimated that diabetes causes 4.6 million
deaths every year and that health systems
spend $465 billion annually fighting the
disease.
Diabetes is a BIG
Global Problem
• An estimated 371 million people worldwide
now suffer from diabetes and the global
epidemic is getting worse
• The International Diabetes Federation
described the number of cases as
"staggering," with one person dying from
diabetes every seven seconds.
Diabetes Global Problem
Astragalus Polysaccharide
Stimulator For Insulin Production
Reverses the affects of diabetes
The pancreas is stimulated to recreate insulin
into energy
Insulin injections through a course of a
Astragalus Polysaccharide treatment will reduce.
On average after 6 months insulin injections will
no longer be necessary
Insulin Sensitizer
Studies have found that Astragalus
polysaccharide (APS) can regulate part of the
insulin signaling in insulin-resistant skeletal
muscle, and that APS could be a potential insulin
sensitizer for the treatment of type 2 diabetes
