Dbx-13 Scam (Page 7)

Updated

In January 2013 - I recently purchased a subscription to the Health Sciences Institute (HSI) newsletter and got the book "Miracles from the Vault." I scoured the pages to find DBX-13 which they advertised as the diabetes miracle cure, and couldn't find it anywhere. I called HSI, and after three attempts and by threatening to take them to court for false advertising, a response finally came by email. DBX-13 is called X-Cravings. But get this... it is no longer being manufactured. X-Cravings appears to be a formula to help you stop craving food... a diet product... and I guess they apparently felt this would help you lose weight which would help your diabetes. I placed a call to the manufacturer of X-Cravings, Nutricology. Tel: (800)545-9960 who claims they don't know that X-Cravings was called DBX-13 by HSI, and they said they discontinued X-Cravings last year (2013). They also don't have a replacement product for it either. I hate when companies like HSI scam you by offering you hope that doesn't exist, which is why I am posting this information.

I have been on Plexus since June 20th 2016. I have been a diabetic for 3 years. Since I have started the tri Plex I have lost 25lbs and Im off of my blood pressure medications, Cholesterol, heart rate meds, and I only take half of my dosage of metformin 1000mg since I saw my diabetic doctor on July 28th 2016. I have also changed my eating habits and now have the energy to exercise. Thanks Plexus. {edited for privacy}.

Just a little on-line research and you will find that this "Plexus" is just a part of a big (MLM) multi level marketing scheme, with sales 'ambassadors scattered all over the country. Also any time you see anything claiming to heal or improve that many conditions, you better watch out. Thanks.

Diet and exercise guys - I lost 45 Ibs using a modified nutri - system diet approach with yoga type resistance exercise 15 minutes on M - W - F only and went from a tight 43 inch pants size to 36 inch pants! I love it and my sugar went from pre - diabetic to sugar levels in the good range - time frame about 9 - 10 months it doens't happen over night and there are no miracle cures - sorry just my opinion based on my experience. By the way I have had 7 heart attacks a stroke and a failed quad by pass. I am 67 and smiling in Florida along with the sunshine so keep on keeping on!

It's like a type of trolling. A sentence is a sentence whether it runs on or not. I read this comment with no difficulties. If you cant understand the sentence because of just punctuation maybe it's your level of intelligence that deprives you from understanding and recognizing words used everyday in the absence of periods and commas. I would ask you "Who cares" but apparently there are a few of you.

Thank you so much for this website. I knew it sounded too good to be true. And if it was a 'super' cure for diabetes EVERYONE would know about it. Losing weight is your best bet against diabetes.

Wow, i wish i saw this post back then! so many of these posts i am not aware of until for whatever dumb reasons, i end up getting an email alert, which kicks up this old post, in the likely event that somebody recently read it and posted a comment to it, maybe being unaware that the originator of the thread started the thread upwards of a year ago or more, and that this person likely doesn't even use or visit this website anymore. I always wonder how that person is doing & hope that they are well. In this case, I would like to thank this person for this HSI post. I came SOOOO very close to purchasing this "Vault" health manual as well, after getting sucked into a really long video advertisement they had. I consider myself to be extremely well read, I am very perceptive to scams as an educated 45 year old woman, and it was not AT ALL apparent to me that they making an empty promise. They presented a ton of valid scientific data in their presentation and I do not specifically remember mention of dbx for diabetes, but I recall thinking they really had a great manual and I'd love to get my hands on it, just to have it as a reference and source. I could have just as easily been duped, too, and again, it was in NO WAY obvious whatsoever.

So with your diabetes gone, are you still taking Cinnamon and bitter Melon ? I would appreciate an answer very much.

I am surprised by your experience with HSI and DBX-13. I have found 2 cures for my Type 2 Diabetes from Jenny Thompson, Berberine and GlucoComplete. Both work. I also went into remission by following Dr. Berg by taking mostly high concentrations of potassium laden vegetables (I used Bok Choy), and my A1C got down to 6.0. With the Berberine and the GlucoComplete, I got down to 5.5, and could eat some sweats, French fries, and other cheat goodies at times. So I do trust HSI, and will keep a jaded eye on this DBX-13 issue. Thanks!

The information I have with my Type one diabetic team, here in New Zealand, is there is NO CURE for type one, you here a lot of lies about cure's, if there was one it would have gone world wide

Yes, GlucoComplete uses a very refined form of cinnamon, and I do not consume any melon. I still have my Bok Choy high potassium vegetables, avoid carbs most always, and my glucose stays around 85-125. I have not used any diabetes meds for over 2 years. My type II diabetes is in total remission. Yeah!!!!

Your diabetes, if type II, can be fully controlled, if you can be disciplined. Your diet must be under control. Eat meat and fats, NO carbs. The only carbs you can have will come from healthy, mostly organic vegetables. You need to eat about 4700mg of potassium laden vegetables. Google up the "30 highest potassium vegetables" which is a good list. Out of those I chose Bok Choy. I found it hard to eat the 7-8 cups daily which is needed to get to the 4700mg of potassium. So you can use your blender to make smoothies and just drink your veggies down. The potassium helps your liver to become less insulin resistant, and your blood sugar levels will decrease.

The next thing I did, which I got from Jenny Thomson at HSI was to take Berberine from Dr. Whitaker (about $10/month) and GlucoComplete form Real Advantage (about $50/month). It takes about 1-3 months for both to work. They say that one can work just fine, I'm trying both for right now, and likely will later simply just go with Berberine because of cost.

I got my A1C down to 6.0 just on the Bok Choy diet, and was in complete remission from my type II. After taking the Berberine and GlucoComplete for a month, my A1C dropped further to 5.5, and may go even lower. Jenny said that with these two supplements that you could cheat on the no carb diet, and enjoy so things which spike your blood sugar, the Berberine and the GlucoComplete will bring your blood sugar back into control in about an hour. I tried it, and that's exactly what happened.

So no more type II, fully under control, no more meds for it, and one happy camper. These ideas came from Jenny Thomson at HSI and Dr. Berg who has many great videos you can Google up on YouTube. Enjoy.

There are natural supplements (as in not made in a lab) that can control glucose, but diet and exercise are first in healing your body. Type 2 can be reversed through avoiding bad carbs.

The problem with these posts is that if you don't identify the person of the response, you don't know who the responder is referencing. In many cases I can tell by context, but not always.

I have been using Sentra5 for the last year. The results have been very good. My A1c has been dropping 2 to 2 1/2 points every 6 months for three consecutive blood tests.

Thanks, Mark. I may try it.

Post 68: Martha, It sounds like you are on a special program. I paid a lot of money to be in a program such as you are describing, and I lost 50 pounds, dropped my blood sugar from 299 down to 100, and reduced my collestrial to good levels. I am now off of the program and numbers ae climbing again. Where did you get the information that led you on such a dist?

Sorry, everyone. Post 139: I meant to say my glucose dropped from 200, not 299. I hope nobody got impressed.
