Today I was in a little pain. The pregnitude worked a little bit as far as relaxing me as well as the oatmeal I ate. I haven't taken my metformin or the Turmeric yet. My wonderful hun is cooking a special chicken meal, so I'll take it then.
Can't wait until payday Friday. I'm so trying out the DIM. I've read too many great reviews on it. Though every woman responds differently to different treatments, I don't want to be that woman that said "I should've tried..." So DIM here I come.
Saw Palmetto (berries) - a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor impedes testosterone conversion and reduces circulating testosterone (androgens).
Vitex Agnus Castus (Chaste tree berry) - Promotes menstrual regularity, supports luteal phase of menstrual cycle and addresses hyperprolactinemia.
Stinging Nettle (root) - Increases sex hormone-binding globulin.
Flax Seed - Supports estrogen metabolism, which increases the production of protective estrogen metabolites and increases sex hormone-binding globulin.
Milk Thistle extract (seed) - Supports liver function.
Vanadyl Sulfate - Maintains healthy blood glucose and cholesterol levels, increases insulin sensitivity, improves glucose tolerance and metabolism, decreases body fat and reduces appetite naturally.
Chromium (Citrate) - Supports insulin binding to cells and maintains healthy cholesterol and insulin levels. Boosts insulin response to glucose.
Alpha Lipoic Acid - Increases insulin sensitivity and maintains healthy glucose levels. Provides antioxidant activity, scavenges free radicals, supports glucose transport and extends the functional capacity of Vitamin C, Vitamin E and CoQ10.
Magnesium (Citrate) - Positively affects insulin secretion/action and improves cholesterol profile. (Lower than normal levels of magnesium are associated with insulin resistance, glucose intolerance and hyperinsulinemia.)
Zinc Citrate - Lowers insulin concentration and improves insulin sensitivity.
L-Carnitine (Tartrate) - Improves insulin sensitivity.
Copper (Citrate) - Balances zinc and supports its ability to lower insulin concentration.
Calcium (Citrate) - Reduces fasting insulin levels, increases insulin sensitivity and regulates fat tissue.
Biotin - Involved in the manufacture and release of insulin; a cofactor required for the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids.
Manganese (Citrate) - Reverses glucose intolerance.
Pancreatic Tissue (procine) - Provides nutritional support for the pancreas.
Adrenal Tissue (bovine) - provides nutritional support for the the adrenals.
Vegetarian Enzyme Blend - Supports nutrient absorption and digestion.
Vitamin C from calcium ascorbate - promotes glucose regulation, improves glucose tolerance and scavenges free radicals.
CoQ10 (Ubiquinone) - Maintains healthy glucose and insuline levels and promotes carbohydrate metabolism. Aids peripheral glucose utilization.
Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) - Supports healthy nerve function, and reduces sorbitol accumulation, muscle weakness and tingling.
Folic Acid - Ensures sufficient folate status to aid in the support of a healthy cardiovascular system.
Quercetin - Antioxidant to inhibit free radical production. Reduces intracellular accumulation of sorbitol that is implicated in adverse impacts on eye health.
Bilberry Extract - Improves microcirculation and protects the vessels of the eyes, in particular.
Grape Seed Extract - Reduces free radicals and supports healthy blood vessels.
Thiamin - Thiamin (Vitamin B1) (as thiamin HCL) May help convert carbohydrates into energy. Thiamin is important for several body functions of the heart, muscles, and the nervous system.
Vitamin D - Vitamin D (as cholecalciferol) plays an important role in bone health, immunity and wound healing.* Vitamin D may also affect insulin secretion and glucose tolerance.
Cinnamon Extract (CinSulin ®)
- helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
Guar Gum - Helps maintain healthy cholesterol, triglycerides and blood pressure, and supports insulin sensitivity.
Apple Pectin & Beet Powder - Slow the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream, which reduces insulin response.
Fenugreek - Reduces the effect of carbohydrates following a meal, and helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels, and promotes insulin response and glucose tolerance.
Milk Thistle - Helps maintain healthy blood sugar and insulin levels. Supports the liver.
Nettle - seems to help those with PCOS who specifically have high levels of DHT (dihydrotestosterone). It inhibits an enzyme known as 5 alpha reductase which is responsible for converting testosterone to DHT (DHT is the form of testosterone which produces hirsutism/male pattern hair loss and acne). However, it can alter sex hormone binding globulin.
Red Raspberry Leaf - Is a natural fertility enhancer and helps prepare the uterus for healthy conception.The Red Raspberry Leaf is most popular as a tonic for pregnancy, but is it also excellent as a nutritive and tonic in preparation for pregnancy. It is also one of the main herbs that is considered safe in most cases to use during pregnancy in preparation for labor. Red Rasberry Leaves are high in Carotenoids, citric acid, tannins,vitamin A, B complex, C, and E. They also have an easily assimilated form of iron, calcium, phosphorus, potassium and silica.
DIM (DIINDOLYLMETHANE) - is a plant indole—a plant compound with health-promoting properties. DIM 150 is safe for women and has no side-effects, as long as it is taken as recommended. Women should use a lower dosage of one half to one capsule (75-150 mg) per day. Post-menopausal women that take replacement hormones can improve their estrogen metabolism with DIM. Among the other benefits DIM gives women is a lower chance of weight gain and maintain uterine, cervical breast health while decreasing the chances of cancer.
