WHAT IS DIABETES?

Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, or alternatively, when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood sugar. Hyperglycaemia, or raised blood sugar, is a common effect of uncontrolled diabetes and over time leads to serious damage to many of the body's systems, especially the nerves and blood vessels.
  • Type 1 diabetes (previously known as insulin-dependent or childhood-onset) is characterized by a lack of insulin production. Without daily administration of insulin, Type 1 diabetes is rapidly fatal.

· Symptoms include excessive excretion of urine (polyuria), thirst (polydipsia), constant hunger, weight loss, vision changes and fatigue. These symptoms may occur suddenly.


  • Type 2 diabetes (formerly called non-insulin-dependent or adult-onset) results from the body’s ineffective use of insulin. Type 2 diabetes comprises 90% of people with diabetes around the world, and is largely the result of excess body weight and physical inactivity.

· Symptoms may be similar to those of Type 1 diabetes, but are often less marked. As a result, the disease may be diagnosed several years after onset, once complications have already arisen.

· Until recently, this type of diabetes was seen only in adults but it is now also occurring in obese children.


  • Gestational diabetes is hyperglycaemia which is first recognized during pregnancy.

· Symptoms of gestational diabetes are similar to Type 2 diabetes. Gestational diabetes is most often diagnosed through prenatal screening, rather than reported symptoms.

Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) and Impaired Fasting Glycaemia (IFG) are intermediate conditions in the transition between normality and diabetes. People with IGT or IFG are at high risk of progressing to type 2 diabetes, although this is not inevitable.

GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor)

GTF (Glucose tolerance factor) is known as a hormone-like compound that works with insulin to transfer glucose from blood into cells. It is composed of certain trivalent chromium, some minerals, amino acids and vitamin. When GTF function is not working properly, the cells resist insulin and do not properly absorb the glucose needed for generation of energy. The liver also needs GTF to manufacture fatty acids, lecithin, cholesterol and lipoproteins.

In 1959, Dr. Mertzs, the former director of the Institute of Human Nutrition, USDA, first discovered GTF in porcine kidney. Later, researchers also found other types of GTF compounds in the liver of other animals, malt yeast and the colostrums of cattle. The best GTF is in human colostrums that are naturally designed for healthy growth in newborn infants. Many manufactures attempted to produce GTF but most production processes of GTF were unstable and could not be mass-produced for commercialization.

Maxluck Biotechnology Corp. have studied colostrums GTF for many years, we finally had a remarkable breakthrough and successfully manufactured colostrums GTF (brand name GT&F®). The GT&F® technology is a patented technology (USP 6,379,693) approved by USPTO. This biotechnological technique can mass produce GT&F®, instead of extracting colostrums GTF. GT&F® Milk Powder is made by blending GT&F® with New Zealand best grade milk powder to mimic the bioactivity of colostrums GTF.

Since GT&F® is non-toxic, does not produce side effects, contains no drugs, hormones, or toxins, it is safe to take. GT&F® is able to effectively promote functioning of insulin, and long-term use provides body with sufficient GTF to maintain homeostasis of blood sugar and also will prevent the occurrence of type 2 diabetes and its complications.

CURE4U Diabetes Treatment Centre

Alternative Treatment Center for Diabetes

Majority of diabetes patients or diabetics with neuro-infectious diabetes foot would seek medical treatments at government hospitals, private hospitals or even private clinics to diagnose their foot ulcer hoping that it would be healed and they could resume life normally.

However, after weeks or months of treatments, these sufferers found all hopes diminished and expectation for a complete recovery becomes unrealistic. Instead, the wound worsen – oozing brown smelly pus, leading to putrefaction of the tissue with visibly no signs of recovery.

To control the spread of this infection, specialist doctors would generally suggest amputating the infected foot which otherwise would be fatal and life threatening. With no other option available, diabetics or their family members would eventually conceded to the specialist’s suggestion. As a result, patients with diabetic foot, which can be treated with alternative medication, are often amputated.

Now, through traditional treatment with modern approach at CURE4U Alternative Treatment Center for Diabetes, we are confident to treat diabetics with foot ulcers and provide them an option against amputation. Without exaggeration, we can even heal diabetic wounds in a much shorter period than conventional treatment method.

To date, there are significant numbers of diabetics from all walks of life receiving treatment at CURE4U Alternative Treatment Center for Diabetes successfully returned to their normal routine and no longer depended on conventional medication or CURE4U alternative medication. Simply speaking, they have fully regained their lives but this time much aware of the importance of healthy lifestyle to avoid future recurrence.
