AIM GlucoChrom™

Lifestyle has a direct impact on the overall quality of our lives. We're truly healthy when our bodies are healthy. A major hindrance to a healthy lifestyle centers around our blood sugar or glucose levels. AIM GlucoChrom™ helps you to maintain this aspect of your health.

Blood sugar is the amount of sugar (glucose) in the blood produced by the body by breaking down the carbohydrates in our food. The blood carries glucose to every cell in the body as fuel to provide the energy needed to keep us healthy.

It's extremely important that blood sugar levels remain consistent and not be too high or too low. The amount of blood sugar is regulated by insulin, a hormone secreted by the pancreas. When the pancreas, insulin and the cells aren't working in harmony, the result can be a degenerative condition called diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes is a disorder in which blood sugar levels are abnormally high because the body doesn't release or use insulin adequately. Symptoms include: frequent urination, extreme thirst, increased appetite, weight loss, dry skin, frequent skin infections, recurrent vaginitis, blurred vision, fatigue, drowsiness and nausea.

Diabetes has the potential for serious long-term complications that lead to increased risk for atherosclerosis (the buildup of fatty deposits called plaque on the inside walls of the arteries) and cardiovascular disease, visual problems and blindness, slow healing of injuries, kidney failure and damage to the nervous system.
