| Ask yourself this question.
Is the product I'm about to put into my body supported
by a double-blind clinical trial? |
Many people take alternative natural products on faith. They
want to believe if it's natural, it's guaranteed to be
effective.
For those who love natural products they have made
a huge (though understandable) mistake.
Most believe that it's possible to know if a natural approach
works by simply trying it. The insights of a double-blind
study cut through someone's wishful thinking and idealism &
make them a hard-nosed skeptic. What you should be asking is
"Show me the double-blind study & I'll pay attention".
Otherwise, it's little more than hot air.
What is a Double-Blind
Study?
In a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, some
of the participants are given the product being tested, others
are given a fake product (placebo) and neither
the researchers nor the participants know which is which until
the study ends (they are thus both “blind”). The
assignment of participants to treatment or placebo is done
randomly, perhaps by flipping a coin (hence “randomized”).
Why Double-Blind
Studies?
For most types of products, only a randomized double-blind,
placebo-controlled study can properly answer the question: “Is
the product effective or not?” To explain this, we will
work backwards and illustrate the problem that could occur
if we attempt to answer this question in any other way.
Common sense tells us that we can determine if a product
works by simply trying it. Does it help me? Does it help my
friends? If so, it’s effective. If not, it doesn’t
work. Right? Unfortunately, no, that’s not right. Medical conditions
are an area of life in which direct, common sense observations
aren’t reliable at all. The insights brought to us by
double-blind studies has been invaluable. It's the only form
of unbiased valuation we have.
The understanding that products must be grounded in double-blind
studies is called the “evidence-based” movement
and it is the same movement that must become the norm in alternative
medicine. According to the evidence-based approach, if a product
has not
been properly
studied, it
should not be advocated as effective.
The DiaMetrix Story™
In early 2006, the positive results of a small preliminary
trial convinced the creators of the formula to invest in a
larger Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled,
Human
Clinical Study.

The study was
designed primarily to examine how well DiaMetrix works
with the body to promote healthy blood sugar by measuring
response in a glucose challenge test, A1c and other biological
markers.
Secondarily, the study examined how well DiaMetrix works
with the body to promote healthy triglyceride, cholesterol
and blood pressure health. The study began in June 2007 and
concluded
in September 2007.
The study also measured 14, 30, 60,
and 90 day fasting blood sugar levels. The 90 day reading supplied
A1c levels that were compared to those taken at the start of
the study. We invite you to review the complete DiaMetrix® clinical
trial report and peer review.
