One of my 11 year old tabbies was diagnosed with feline diabetes. She was lethargic, constantly drinking and urinating and had dropped to skin & bones. I decided to give this product a try rather than the insulin shots. It has saved her life! Her weight is healthy, sugar levels normal, she's playful like a kitten again and even her fur has changed from dull and always shedding to soft and shiny...I'm absolutely amazed.

I give this product to my older diabetic cat. His age is estimated to be between 15 - 18 yrs and I made the decision to not go with insulin treatments. I add 4 drops to his food twice a day and I have also changed his diet to high protien, low carb. He seems a bit better but he really wasn't acting sick. He had lost weight and was drink tons of water which is water alerted me to the fact that he might be diabetic. It may be too soon to tell but he has definately not been drinking as much water of flooding out the littler box. He seems alert and is looking like he may have put on a pound or so. I would continue to use this product as I can't seen any adverse effects and the cat seems happy.

Short answer, Blood Sugar Gold wasn't effective for my cat. Here's my story:
My cat was diagnosed with diabetes 4 months ago. (He's somewhere between 9 and 14 years old.) At the time he was all skin & bones because the diabetes had decayed his teeth, and he couldn't chew the dry food we were giving him, which means he was starving.
After finding out what was wrong, I made two changes: I started feeding him wet food, so he could chew and eat again. (I chose the diabetic-appropriate "Classic" line of Fancy Feast - high protein, low carb). Secondly, I bought the Blood Sugar Gold and started administering it twice daily.
The immediate results were fantastic: he regained his weight, his fur started looking good again and he became his old frisky self. Of course, there was no way to tell whether these changes were because he could now eat again, or because of the Blood Sugar Gold.
About 2 months later, I tested his glucose. His blood sugar was still off the chart. The normal range for a cat not receiving insulin is about 70 to 150, and his was closer to 300 - just as it had been when the vet tested him originally.
Now, 4 months after his diagnosis, he seems to be on his last legs. He's chosen to stop eating or drinking, and has lost all his weight again. I think he's getting ready to pass on. Being that he's possibly as old as 14, maybe this is just his time to go. Then again, most of the cats I've had in my life have lived to their late teens or early twenties, so even 14 doesn't seem that old to me.
My point is, it seems that in his case, the Blood Sugar Gold didn't have much (if any) effect on his diabetes. I'm guessing if we were able to give him insulin twice a day he'd probably have a few more years in him, but that's not an option for us. So, we're keeping him comfortable, petting him a lot and trying to make his passage as peaceful as we can.
What did I like about Blood Sugar Gold? I liked that it was an herbal alternative to insulin injections. I liked that it was natural. I liked that I could put it in his food instead of sticking him with needles. I liked that it was designed to support his own pancreatic function, rather than providing him insulin that he himself wasn't producing. I liked everything about it, except that it didn't work for us.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
This product is so easy to administer. I just bury it in Fancy Feast which is recommended by our vet. I started out with one
dose a day to replace the injection. Just started the dose 2x/day.
The cat has not reverted to diabetic symptoms. I am relieved to
be able to stop the injections. Thank you.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
My 11 yr. old cat Hudson was diagnosed with diabetes in January with a blood level count over 600. I did not want to start giving him shots, so I decided to try this product. He has stopped drinking water all the time and his blood count went down to 300+, which I had checked this month. His fur is shinny and healthy again. I switched him to a high protein wet cat food and do not give him dry food anymore. I am very pleased with this product and just ordered 2 more bottles. My vet was even surprised how much his blood level has dropped.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
I started giving my cat Bootsie 5 drops 2 times a day in his food no problem with him not liking the taste, it has been 2 weeks and he is so much better by leaps and bounds. Bootsie was nothing but skin and bones just laid around cried cause he was so hungry and would throw up water. He doesn't drink so much water anymore.The litter box was a mess and so were his feet. Bootsie stopped cleaning himself and his fur was getting matted. Now he looks great and has even started to put on some weight. No problem with the litter box. That in it self is worth every penny and that was not alot compared to what shots would be. Thank You So Much Dr. Janice Huntingford for giving my Bootsie Boy Back ;-D

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
I give 5 drops of Blood Sugar Gold twice a day to my 13+ year old cat that was diagnosed with diabetes last summer.I find it easy to give with some wet food, she liked it from the beginning. Over the last 8 month she has improovMountained a lot,she is back to her normal behaviour and she put back on some of the weight she had lost.She is not extremly thirsty anymore.She seems to need a bit more frequent feeding, so she gets 3 smaller meals throughout the day in addition to the morning and evening feeding with the medication.Overall the product works well for my cat and my busy schedule,and I am thankfull that I didn't have to put her down(insulin injections are not an option).

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
Our house cat was diagnosed with diabetes in February. Her litter had become a headache to clean as there were huge clumps of urine and we could hardly keep up with her consumption of water. The vet told us it would cost at $50-$100 a month to treat her and she would need insulin shots twice a day as her blood sugar was over 400. When i googled cat diabetes, this site came up. I was advised to switch to a low carb meat pate and use this product. We had been feeding her a good quality dry food but the switch to a pate brought immediately better results. She had hardly been eating or cleaning herself anymore. When we gave her the pate, she could hardly believe how good it tasted. As we waited for our blood sugar gold product to arrive, we continued the pate and when we added the 5 drops of blood sugar gold twice a day she didn't blink an eye. She still loves her food and medicine and has improved considerably. Her litter is much easier to clean and she's playful, happy, and cares for herself again.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
My 18 yr old kitty started drinking water like crazy, had dizziness, a lack of energy, and a terrible nasal discharge from one side of her nose. Took her in to find out her glucose levels were through the roof, and the vet started her on insulin. Testing every morning was so painful for her, as was the shot, and I was determined to find an alternative, and found this web site. After reading the reviews, I decided to try the Blood Sugar Gold for Cats, and L-O-V-E the results!
She is completely off insulin and is only using this product, along with a low caloried diabetic diet, and pinch of psyllium whole husk (to help her with pooping), and her energy is back, she is putting on weight, and is back to her old quirky self. The only thing she didn't like is the taste, so I give it to her mixed with a tiny amount of water, and just shoot it into her mouth 2x p/day. Easy.
The nasal discharge was being caused by a lymphoma tumor, so I just orded the Cat Cancer Kit from this site, and I'll post how that is helping in a month or so.
So far, I'm 100% pleased with the results of this product, and HAVE recommended it to many friends who have diabetic pets, and to my veterinarian. If you have a pet w/diabetes, give this a try; I feel you will be just as pleased.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
Louie is 15 years and a few months old. Blood Sugar Gold appears to have helped him a great deal along with the all meat diet I feed him, and the Vitamin B-12 for his neuromyopathy, which is now gone. He has trimmed down, is more energetic, and appears to be the way he was at 5 and 6 years old. I attribute BSG for helping him deal with what carbs he gets and adding to his healthy disposition these days. Its not hard to feed him twice a day. He doesn't mind it so much anymore and it must taste okay to him. I'd recommend this product very much.

I use this product daily to keep my 14 year old Cat alive. He was diagnosed with diabetes and this is a more affordable way for treatment. My vet says that it is a miracle that my Cat has lived as long as he has but is thankful that I can keep my Cat alive longer, and for me to have a medicine that is more affordable than shots daily. I am very pleased with this product and would recommend it to anyone to try should they have a Cat or Dog that is diagnosed with diabetes.

My cat China is 15 years old she was unresponsive and had stopped eating she was also drinking water all day long and was loosing hair.

I didn't want to put her through going to the vet and possibly needing shots so I ordered the Blood suger gold for cat diabetes support and I couldn't be happier China has come back to life, she is still drinking a lot of water but all other symptoms have gone and she is like her old self. Thank you Pet Wellbeing for giving me back my China.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
I was a bit skeptical about ordering Blood Sugar Gold at first, but really felt my cat was at least borderline diabetic, as he constantly meowed to drink water from the faucet, was quite heavy (22 lbs.), and there were lots of huge urine clumps to clean up in his litter box each day. Instead of starting him on some sort of insulin regimen (which would limit my travel away from home, etc.), I decided to order two bottles of this product. Amazingly, after three days on it, he no longer cried for water and has never done so since; it has been about 4 weeks that he has been on the product. He also has lost a bit of the fat around his middle and is using the litter box less than he used to. He also seems much happier and content and also more active. In short, he is back to his normal self!
I also stopped using dry cat food entirely as it is too high in carbs and I learned cats need protein, not carbs. So, now I only feed him one small can of a high quality, high protein, meaty soft cat food in the morning and another in the evening, along with his small water dish, which he does drink from, but not excessively. One bit of info: At first, he did not seem to like the taste of his soft cat food with the product, so I lessened the dosage and gradually increased it. Within a few days he was eating it as if there was no difference from before. I highly recommend this product!

The bottle comes with an eye dropper top which makes measuring the amount and administering to our cat very easy. It is concentrated, so very little needs to be given. We received the product promptly and with in 2 days noticed many wonderful improvements in our 18 year old cat. She could jump up on the couch again, her back flattened out, she acted at least 2 years younger and was much more comfortable all around.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
When the doctor told me I would have to administer 2 shots a day to my cat, I just said, there is no way I can't do that both emotionally,or financially. So I searched the net for feline diabetes and found well-being and millet. I read the reviews and decided to try it. It was this or put the cat down if he declined any more. Well...........I tried it and now-he has his bounce back! I don't know how long I am adding to his life, but for now, we are both much happier!!! It took care of the nasty excess urinating symptoms, because it took care of his excessive thirst. We have been using it now for 10 months. Just 5 drops twice a day on his food.

Comments about Pet Wellbeing Blood Sugar Gold - Cat Diabetes Support:
I began using this on our 12 year old Maine Coon cat who was losing weight and lethargic, and had all the symptoms of diabetes,(the dry skin, wt. loss, not playful, frequent drinking and urination, unhappy, cataract in one eye). I am an alternative medicine person and always believe there is another way than mainstream medicine...not to mention the cost of the Vet and the insulin etc.!
And am I happy I found your herbal remedy!
On the 15th of Nov. I began to give Obie 5 drops twice a day in a small amount of wet catfood to make sure he eats it all...and he gobbles it up! I am so pleased because he is very fussy and was worried he would turn his nose up at it...
I couldn't have asked for a better way to give his medicine to him...no upsetting him with pills, etc. It couldn't be easier.
And the results were and are wonderful! And almost immediate. Within the first week I noticed him having more energy. And the second week, miracle of miracles, he began to play with me again. He is definately happier, has more energy, is more affectionate and playful and eats well. I am thinking he is beginning to gain some weight. At least he isn't wasting away like he was before. His coat looks better. Everything is better except his urinating still seems to be alot. Hopefully with more time, that too will resolve? He has been on the medication now exactly 5 weeks. Thank you with all my heart! What a wonderful product!

Description
About Feline Diabetes Mellitus
Diabetes results when the cats pancreas fails to produce enough insulin. Sugars build up in the bloodstream rather than enter the body’s tissues where they would otherwise provide energy. (This is why diabetic cats are often lethargic.)
Excess sugar in a cats bloodstream can lead to several of other conditions, including heart, liver and kidney disease, increased infections, slow healing, cataracts, blindness, etc.
Risk factors for cat diabetes include:
- Obesity
- Poor diet (high carbohydrate kibble)
- Cortisone treatments
- Stress and shock
Diabetes is more common in:
- Male cats generally
- Cats fed a strictly dry kibble diet
- Overweight cats
- Middle-aged and older cats
Common symptoms of Feline Diabetes Mellitus include:
- Increased thirst, frequent urination
- Weakness, lethargy
- Signs of pain in the abdomen
- Cataracts (eyes cloudy rather than clear)
- Weight loss
- Muscle wasting
Diagnosing and treating Cat Diabetes
If you think your cat might have diabetes, you should take him to a vet. A veterinarian can diagnose cat diabetes mellitus by examining sugar levels in the cats blood and urine.
A recommended lifestyle change usually includes a healthy species appropriate diet, high in protein and no complex carbohydrates. If your cat is overweight, you should help him lose weight through diet and increased exercise. Caution: Weight loss should be gradual. If cats lose weight too quickly or stop eating, they can become prone to a serious illness called Hepatic Lipidosis where an excess of fat builds up in the cells of the liver (also called Fatty Liver Syndrom). Be very careful of transitioning your cat to a new food slowly to ensure they are eating adequate amounts daily. Cats cannot be fasted! Conventional treatment may also include regular injections of insulin. Your cats feeding regime will be determined when a glucose curve is done by a veterinarian. This will indicate the best time to give insulin and when to feed your cat. Also monitor closely, any adjustment in diet. Especially if moving from a higher carbohydrate kibble diet to a higher protien, lower carbohydrate diet. Lower carb diets may reduce the percentage of body fat and lower insulin requirements.

Ingredients
- Devil's Club root bark (Oplopanax horridum)**: This indigenous North American herb has vast uses. Maintenance of normal blood sugar levels is one of its most powerful applications. It has also been used traditionally by First Nations Peoples for the respiratory system, for joints, the digestive system and as a general health tonic.
- Fenugreek seed (Trigonella foenum-graecum)*: A seed used extensively in India for health and nutrition, recent studies concur that healthy liver and insulin levels may be linked with regular ingestion.
- Gymnema leaf (Gymnema sylvestre): With the addition of this herb to our formula, there is specific support to the beta cells of the pancreas and also to maintain healthy blood sugar levels immediately following consumption of food.
- Goat's Rue herb (Galega Officinalis)*: Used and grown in Europe for hundreds of years, this herb may allow the body to better tolerate carbohydrates. It is also one of the main plants used for maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. Its secondary ability to support the liver makes it a valuable addition to this formula.
- Oregon Grape root (Berberis aquifolium)**: Although we tend to think of the pancreas as the main body part that plays a role in affecting blood sugar, the liver is also integrally involved in this balance. Oregon Grape's action on the liver increases the effectiveness of this formula.
- Bilberry fruit and leaf (Vaccinium officinalis)*: Rich in anthocyanins, these berries are considered a wonderful food source of antioxidants. The extract is known to affect the tiny blood vessels that supply the eyes. It also shows specific dual action in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.
- Glycerin based with natural bacon flavor
---435 mg per ml (20 drops / ml)
