I have not posted in a while. My cat Lucky has been diabetic for well over two years. She was normalized with just low carb food and never ended up needing insulin thus far. However I was introduced to a new supplement DMG. She has bad allergies and pulls her fur out. But because she has arrhythmia she can't be on any steroids for it. A friend had good success with DMG and her cat with allergies. I was thinking of trying it with Lucky but wasn't sure if it was okay for her to have since she is diabetic. I don't want to chance having her remission short lived.
A page about the supplement says this:
DMG, short for dimethylglycine, is a nutritional supplement that can provide wonderful positive benefits to humans and animals. Our bodies use DMG every day, even though we don't know it. Humans and animals produce DMG in small amounts, and it affects nearly every metabolic pathway within each cell of the body.
It provides useful building units for biosynthesis of vitamins, hormones, neurotransmitters, antibodies, nucleic acids and other metabolically active molecules. It can be helpful in virtually all species of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, rodents, reptiles and birds.
Laboratory and clinical research indicates that DMG supplementation can be used effectively as a nutritional adjunct to a number of health issues in pets.
These include:
Cardiovascular problems
Glucose metabolism
Autoimmune disorders
Allergies
Cancer/tumors
Liver diseases
Respiratory problems
Immune response deficiencies
Neurological disorders
Just wondering if anyone has had their diabetic cat on it? Is it safe to give? I just don't want to give her something and have it raise her blood sugar.
Thanks!
