______________
Cause...
It is believed that canker sores are triggered by stress, which
can cause the body's immune system to overreact to bacteria
normally present in the mouth. They can be initiated by
irritating the inside of the mouth, such as with a rough
toothbrush or biting the inside of the mouth.
What May Help: Watkins Aloe Vera Juice or Gel Capsules
Why...
Aloe vera accelerates healing and reduces pain associated with
canker sores.
Helpful Hint...
Aloe can be taken both as the aloe vera juice and aloe vera gel.
For the greatest benefits, drink at least 2 ounces of Watkins
Aloe Vera Juice daily and when symptoms appear, place a clean,
sterile pin through the end of the gel capsule or cut open a
gel capsule with clean, sterile scissors or a knife and
squeeze the aloe onto the sore to speed healing.
What May Help: Watkins Rezist Plus, Superfood Multiple(Super
Multi)
Why...
Strengthens the immune system. Superfood Multiple(Super Multi)
contains B vitamins, often lacking in those who experience
frequent canker sores.

"Many of my customers have told me about the great results they
have using Watkins Aloe Vera Gel Capsules for canker sores.
They place a clean, sterile pin through the end of the gel
capsule and squeeze the gel directly onto the canker sore or
the gums. I have had several customers use Watkins Aloe Vera
Gel Capsules for canker sores with tremendous success."

*-Aloe Vera: New Remedy for Oral Health Problems-*
New reports published in the January/February issue of General
Dentistry show that the aloe vera plant, used to heal skin for
more than 2,000 years, can also treat many oral health problems,
including canker sores, cold sores, herpes simplex type 1 virus,
lichen planus and gum disease such as gingivitis. Researchers
suggest that aloe vera accelerates healing and reduces pain
associated with canker sores and blisters on the lips and mouth
and could be a very inexpensive alternative remedy. Author
Richard L.Wynn discusses a study done on a patient with lichen
planus, a disease affecting the skin and oral mucus membranes.
The patient drank 2 ounces of aloe vera juice daily and
topically applied aloe vera to the lips. The oral lesions
cleared up in four weeks and complete success was achieved. Dr.
Wynn cited the study as showing that oral health problems can
be treated with aloe vera. "Aloe Vera can be taken both as the
aloe vera juice and aloe vera gel. These are the two modes of
delivery recognized by the FDA," said Dr.Wynn.
Watkins Aloe Vera Juice is 99.7% pure, cold-processed and
stabilized and Watkins Aloe Vera Gel Capsules contain
concentrate equal to one teaspoon of pure gel. The recommended
use is 2 to 6 ounces of juice or one gel capsule per day. For
the greatest benefits, drink at least 2 ounces of Watkins Aloe
Vera Juice daily and when symptoms appear, place a clean,
sterile pin through the end of the gel capsule or cut open a
gel capsule with clean, sterile scissors or a knife and
squeeze the aloe onto the sore to speed healing.
Consult your physician before taking any dietary supplements.

______________
The amount of glucose, or sugar, in the blood is called your
blood sugar level. Since your cells use glucose for energy, it
is important that these levels stay within normal limits for
cells to function properly. Normally, blood sugar levels stay
within normal limits throughout the day, being highest after
meals and lowest in the morning. However, under certain
conditions, the body is no longer able to control the level of
glucose in the blood, which over time, can lead to cell damage.
Cause...
Type I diabetes occurs when the pancreas stops producing
insulin. The cause is unknown but some believe it is due to a
virus. People with type I must take insulin for life. Type 2
diabetes develops when the pancreas produces enough insulin,
but the cells resist it. This is called insulin resistance.
Obesity increases the risk of type 2.
What May Help: Watkins Superfood Multiple(Super Multi)
Why...
Contains B-complex vitamins which help to convert glucose to
energy and help to prevent nerve damage and chromium, which
helps to balance blood glucose and cholesterol in diabetics.
What May Help: Watkins Reduce Plus(WMS #2) (check with
physician and monitor blood sugar regularly)
Why...
Contains banaba, chromium and gymnema sylvestre which help to
balance blood sugar levels.
What May Help: Watkins Cinnamon
Why...
1/4 tsp per day helps to lower blood sugar levels in type 2
diabetics by helping to make insulin more effective in the body.
Consume cinnamon at each meal for best results.
*-Ground Breaking News!-*
Cinnamon shown to lower blood sugar, fats and cholesterol!
Recent studies reported in the journal, Diabetes Care, have
shown that just 1/4 tsp of cinnamon every day may help to lower
blood sugar, fats and cholesterol by up to 30 percent in those
with type 2 diabetes. Researchers suggest it may also stave off
the onset of type 2 diabetes in those at risk. Study author Dr.
Richard A. Anderson of the Beltsville Human Nutrition Research
Center in Maryland noted that diabetics could add a dash of
cinnamon to their morning servings of coffee, orange juice or
cereal.
Anderson and his team found that all cinnamon takers
experienced a drop in blood levels of glucose, fats and
cholesterol by up to 30 percent. No change was seen in the
people taking placebo. As an added bonus, cinnamon contains
virtually no calories, Anderson said, allowing diabetics to add
zest to their meals without adding to their waistlines.
Previous research has shown that cinnamon appears to help fat
cells recognize and respond to insulin. In recent studies, the
spice increased glucose metabolism by about 20 times.
Helpful Hint...
Try Watkins Purest Ground Cinnamon every day on cereal, oatmeal,
toast, apples and savory dishes. Place in coffee grounds before
brewing for rich flavor and aroma.
