Type 1 diabetes insulin pumps deliver the right amount of insulin you need to
keep your blood sugar balanced…
But a new study has found that when you fly, it affects the delivery of insulin due to cabin pressure changes…
It´s useful to know – find out more below…
Healthier blood sugar couldn’t get easier than this one simple step!
With just three small capsules of FSPNutritionals’ Complete Gluco-Control, you’re getting…
• Berberine – the secret key to the Metabolic Master Switch that regulates blood sugar at cellular level!
• Mulberry Leaf Extract – the sugar ‘sponge’ nutrient that reduces the entry of glucose levels into the blood stream!
• Chromium – the mineral that ushers sugar into your cells and out of your blood stream!
• Alpha-Lipoic Acid – the powerhouse in every single cell in your body which clears the way for insulin to do its job properly!
• Biotin – the blood sugar vitamin that converts glucose into a form your cells can use for energy!
• Magnesium – the blood sugar essential mineral deficient in people with insulin resistance!
• Ginger – the anti-inflammatory wonder that prevents high blood sugar levels.
This could mean no more dozing off in front of the TV… or raiding the fridge for a midnight snack… or constantly worrying about your sugar level counts…
How in-cabin pressure changes affect insulin pumps…
For the study, published in Diabetologia, the researchers tested 26 insulin pumps by placing them in Europe’s largest hypobaric chamber…
The conditions in this chamber mimicked the atmospheric changes during a normal flight…
The researchers set insulin infusion on the insulin pumps to 0.60 units per hour and then de-pressurised the hypobaric chamber to 550 mmHg – which is what would happen over a 20-minute ascent in the aeroplane.
In these conditions, the full insulin cartridges over-delivered 0.60 units of insulin over a 20-minute ascent compared to ground-level performance.
The researchers noted that while this may reduce blood glucose slightly, it shouldn´t lead to clinically significant hypoglycaemia.
The opposite happened during descent – the cabin pressure increased and the cartridges under-delivered 0.51 units of insulin.
This may lead to blood glucose being higher than usual – but it´s not as serious as the effects of too much insulin, in case type 1 diabetics consider increasing their dosage…
The biggest change came in during rapid decompression – read about it below…

Remember how it felt at the beginning? You could go all night…
But now you find yourself tired and more than a little disinterested when the time comes to turn off the lights.
Imagine recapturing that wonderful feeling of excitement, boosting your energy (and interest) level, and feeling really good again?
Now you can bring back your Glory Days with just one powerful supplement!
Rapid decompression during flight poses the most concern for type 1 diabetes…
Rapid decompression during flight resulted in 5.6 units of excess insulin being delivered. This causes an insulin overdose, which can result in blood sugar levels falling sharply, leading to hypoglycaemia.
It´s important to keep glucose tablets, or another form of short-acting carbohydrates, in your pocket and within easy reach in case this happens to you on a flight.
While normal changes in compression may not be significant – when everything else is unchanged – it´s important to know about them and to be prepared in case you need to adjust your medication on flight.
Always tell your doctor you´re travelling and discuss a plan, with specific dosages, in case of eventualities on flight.

How to activate the Metabolic Master Switch in your cells for more balanced blood sugar
There’s a natural compound found in a number of plants that’s been used for centuries in Chinese Medicine to help treat a variety of ailments.
It has the ability to help activate an enzyme in cells called the Metabolic Master Switch. When this happens, your body can switch specific genes on and off to regulate your metabolism – at cellular level!
The results: Lower blood sugar levels, improved insulin sensitivity in cells, muscles use more glucose for energy, reduced sugar production in the liver and a delayed breakdown of carbohydrates in the digestive tract.
