Diabetes Mellitus Support
Formerly referred to as "sugar" diabetes!
A carefully selected combination of natural, plant and mineral ingredients, traditionally valued for supporting balance in metabolism, energy, and overall vitality. Historically, these remedies were associated with maintaining healthy appetite, circulation, and general wellbeing.
Understanding Diabetes Mellitus in Pets
Diabetes mellitus occurs when the pancreas is unable to properly regulate blood sugar.
There are two primary types:
Type I (Insulin Dependent) – requires daily insulin injections.
Type II (Non-Insulin Dependent) – may respond to dietary changes and careful management.
Feline Diabetes Mellitus
Cats are particularly sensitive to dietary carbohydrates. Common signs include:
Weight loss despite increased appetite
Excessive thirst (increased water intake)
Frequent or excessive urination
Nutritional Considerations
Avoid feeding “dry” carbohydrate-rich foods such as kibble or biscuits, as these may contribute to high blood sugar levels. Cats, in particular, are more sensitive to refined carbohydrates than dogs. Diabetes is often considered an acquired condition influenced by diet and lifestyle factors.
Nutrient Support
Vitamin B12 has been referenced in relation to nervous system balance and awareness of blood sugar fluctuations.
Reference: PMC Article – Impaired Awareness of Hypoglycemia Improved After Vitamin B12 Treatment
Some practitioners recommend high-quality activated B12 supplements (such as Perque Activated B12 Guard) for long-term support, with benefits often seen over a period of consistent use.
Peripheral nerve changes can sometimes be seen in cats living with diabetes mellitus. This condition is linked with consistently high blood sugar levels, which may place strain on the nerves, particularly in the hind legs.
Possible signs may include:
Weakness in the hind legs
Difficulty standing on the toes
Challenges with jumping
Legs slipping or giving way, making walking more difficult
In some cases, discomfort such as tingling or numbness may also be present.
Educational Note on Nutritional Support
Certain nutrients, such as Vitamin B6 (pyridoxal-5-phosphate / P5P form), have been traditionally referenced for their role in supporting nerve and metabolic health. Some practitioners suggest that adding small amounts of B6 powder from capsules into meals (e.g., ¼ capsule for cats) may assist general wellbeing.
A commonly referenced brand is “Seeking Health,” which provides activated B6 in capsule form. Always ensure supplements are added carefully and monitored, especially in pets with underlying conditions.
