Since we are not vets (or doctors), the following is our lay holistic interpretation. Holistic vets and nutrition experts generally state that cats should never be fed kibble, even a super premium brand, because of the poor nutritional content inappropriate for carnivores. One vet has called kibble “diabetes in a bag" for cats because of the high carbohydrate content. Corn has a high sugar content and according to one holistic vet could be the main cause of the increase in diabetes in our pets. We suggest avoiding all dry kibble with corn as an ingredient. With excessive carbohydrates and sugars in our pet's diet, the pancreas gets stressed and overworked, then insulin production diminishes . But the effects do not stop there. With the pancreases overworked, the other job of the pancreas, producing digestive enzymes, also decreases. So, now the animal's digestion begins to get compromised. Can you see the holistic snowball effect that happens? Maybe diabetes and poor digestion (and the need to add digestive enzymes for older pets) are not just an inevitable old age disease in animals.
Here is a human example. At Deepak Chopra's World Wellness Weekend (January, 2006) we did an unscientific experiment with an adolescent who had juvenile diabetes. We had the youngster test her glucose level at 170. We gave her two capsules BioSuperfood-F3 and a small sip of water. We asked her not to eat or drink anything else for 30 minutes and come back and retest her glucose level. After 30 minutes of taking BioSuperfood her glucose level now measured 142. Even though BioSuperfood has no insulin producing ingredients or pancreatic "boosters," the child realized a reduction of 28 mg/dl. BioSuperfood did not reduce the blood sugar levels as a supplement but by providing super nutrition and boosting up the master glands of the brain (i.e., pineal, pituitary and hypothalamus glands) the body was better able to regulate all the secondary glands (such as the pancreas, adrenals and thyroid) so the body could naturally and holistically balance the blood sugar levels. This is the holistic effect BioSuperfood has on the body.
One of Dr. Kiriac's human patients reportedly eliminated his need for insulin by taking one capsule of BioSuperfood every waking hour. What this patient was doing was supplying super nutrition to the brain (and rest of the body's glands and organs) at frequent enough intervals so that the glands actually retrained themselves from a point of insufficient insulin to normalization of insulin in the body. BioSuperfood did not cure the diabetic condition but BioSuperfood nutritionally helped the body overcome the insufficient production of insulin by boosting up the glands that regulate the process.
A recent human study showed that Spirulina was found to "...significantly reduce plasma triglyceride and plasma malondialdehyde levels and increase plasma adiponectin levels, reduce plasma total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, IL-6, and blood pressure."

These results are individual case studies. We cannot guarantee your results will be the same. Since each body responds differently to the super nutrition in bio-algae concentrates your results will be different. These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA.
