How to Treat your Cat's or Dog's Diabetes
Treating your Cat or Dog for DiabetesHave you heard that cats and dogs too can experience diabetes? It's true and it can be equally as scary a process as it can be for human beings.
Diabetes mellitus is a common endocrine disorder that either disallows your beloved's pancreas from producing enough insulin or prevents their bodies from using insulin properly. Why is insulin so important? Insulin is basically a hormone that allows sugar (glucose) in the blood to enter cells, where the sugar is stored or burned for fuel in order to help the body function. Without insulin, glucose remains in the blood stream until it is poured forth by the kidneys and is lost in the urine.
Type 1 Diabetes
100% of diabetic dogs and up to 50% of diabetic cats suffer from Type 1 diabetes mellitus which involves their body not being able to produce any insulin.
Type 2 Diabetes
More commonly known to affect cats, Type 2 diabetes typically involves up to 50% of diabetic cats. A pet with Type 2 diabetes either can no longer make enough insulin or can no longer properly use the insulin it produces.
Possible Causes of Diabetes Include:
Hereditary factors (genetic reasons)
Pancreatitis
Use of corticosteroids
Use of progestogens and other conditions affecting the pancreas
Diabetes Symptoms
Apparent weakness
Breakdown of body fat

Has anyone used this treatment in place of insulin? My cat has been on insulin for the past 6 months since being diagnosed with diabetes and I recently noticed a big decline in his activity level resulting in another increase in insulin. Any experiences with this product would be greatly appreciated.
