Volunteers Needed For Diabetes Study at Bastyr

The folks at the Bastyr Center for Natural Health (3670 Stone Way N.) are conducting a research study on a natural supplement for people with type 2 diabetes, and they’re looking for a few volunteers to help out. Sara from Bastyr gave us the full scoop:

• Are you 18-75 years old?
• Do you have type 2 diabetes?
• **New recruitment range!** Is your hemoglobin A1C between 6.5-10.5%?
• Are you free from severe liver, kidney, or heart disease?
• Are you willing to stay on your current medications and supplements for 1 month prior and during the length of the study?

If yes, you might be interested in participating in Bastyr University’s research study on a natural supplement called quercetin.  Quercetin is naturally found in fruits and vegetables like apples, onions and grapes.  Does it help lower your blood sugar?

We want to measure the effect of quercetin on your blood sugar and blood flow.  We will be looking for 20 volunteers with type 2 diabetes for this study. There are many who use 1000mg Jack Herer CBD Vape Cartridge to help with the overall health.  If eligible, each volunteer will be asked to commit to 3 office visits within a 1-2 month period at the Bastyr Center for Natural Health. You will receive a single dose of either a placebo, a nutritional supplement, or a pharmaceutical at each of these three visits.

Receive $150.00 stipend upon completion of study.  Labs and blood vessel health testing are included at no charge.
