I have been using this product for about a month now and I haven't noticed any difference. I will finish what I have, but I probably will not buy anymore unless I begin to see improvement.

I am writing to correct the reviewer saying that this product is Alpha lipoic acid and Biotin. It is not Alpha lipoic acid. ALA is a cheap mixture of natural and synthetic lipoic acids. Insulow is pure natural R+ lipoic acid. Not ALA or Krala or any of the other cheap inventions of the supplement industry. R+ ALA is now sold by BASF in Germany for diabetics as a drug to manage blood sugar and neuropathy. BASF's costs 4 times as much as Insulow and is not even available in the US. Luckily the FDA classifies R+ ALA as a supplement and not a drug.
There is a study from the Univ of Toronto showing that this ingredient is more effective than the 4 leading drugs used for glucose uptake enhancement in diabetics. That study is on the American Diabetes Association website. Insulow is not the same as ALA and biotin by any means.
Dr. Richard Bernstein now recommends Insulow in his latest Diabetes Self-Management book.
 There are better and cheaper products available November 2, 2006

This product's active ingredients are alpha lipoic acid and biotin--these are common ingredients in natural multivitamin formulas which would be a better value. I am type II diabetic and have found the following herb/vitamin formulas to be excellent:
Nature's Way Blood Sugar formula ($7 per bottle)
Geromatrix Glucose Balance ($28/bottle)
Life Enhancement Insulife ($24/bottle)
Wild Tibetan Goji Berries for repair of tissues damaged by high blood sugar.

I started Insulow in June 06. I have been diagnosed as insulin resistant with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Over the past year, my cortisol levels shot through the roof due to external stress and despite, a drastic change in diet, the addition of Relacore and vigorous workouts up to 6 days a week, I could not drop a pound. Glucose was simply not going to my muscles! Also, when I ate too much refined sugar over a period of days, I would get terrible boils from the sugar building up in my blood. After sticking to the Insulow regimen of 15 min. before meals, I am no longer fighting boils. Now is August 1, 2006 and I have successfully shed 7 lbs so far and my stomach is visibly smaller. I can go much longer periods between meals, sometimes up to 6 hours. I also eat much smaller meals, much, much smaller meals! I do take Insulow in addition to Relacore because I was diagnosed with high cortisol and the two give me so much energy that my entire lifestyle is reverting to the days when I was healthy. I'm out clubbing 2-3 days a week and exercising in my living room the other days. I feel wonderful.

After just 3 weeks of using this product my fasting blood sugar has dropped to 111. Thats over 40 points!!!! Pretty impressive. My Dr. started me on Metformin but it made me very sick. This stuff works much better wiht no side effects. I wish I had known about this years ago as I have been fighting with high fasting sugars for years. This product is a god send.
