FDA Approved Diabetes Breakthrough Goes Public

Carson City, NV – Diabetes cost America $174 billion dollars in 2007. The American Diabetes Association reports $116 billion of the overall diabetes price tag is for medical expenditures. The other $58 billion is from indirect costs like absenteeism and disease-related unemployment disability. One out of every 5 American health care dollars is spent caring for someone diagnosed with diabetes.

Now, imagine all that money didn’t need to be spent.

Imagine the 20.8 million Americans the CDC says are diagnosed with diabetes, and the other one third that are un-diagnosed, didn’t need to have their feet amputated, didn’t have bleeding into the eyes, didn’t have kidney problems, heart problems or convulsions.

Dr. Marc Rose imagined a world without complications from diabetes over 20 years ago. This month the company he co-founded VitalCare (Care That Is Vital for Your Life) went public on the Stock Exchange.

“The 85-thousand Americans a year who will have their feet amputated - the 12-million who will have bleeding into the eyes because of diabetes - we can stop that. We can stop it and reverse the damage,” the renowned physician states.

Most people think of diabetes as a blood sugar problem. But blood sugar and insulin are just symptoms of the disease. Diabetes is caused by a malfunctioning metabolism.

No matter how carefully a type 1 (juvenile onset) or type 2 (adult onset) diabetic monitors blood sugar or measures insulin, he or she is still fighting a ticking clock. Nearly all diabetics will eventually have complications like kidney or heart failure.

VitalCare clinics use iCAT Therapy (TM pending) to give diabetics micro-pulses of insulin, mimicking the way food and energy are processed in the normal human body. Dr. Rose says over time the treatment stops, stabilizes and actually manages to fix damage from diabetes. To date, no negative side effects have been reported.

The FDA approved once a week six hour treatment costs $1-thousand dollars. “It might sound like a lot,” says Rose, “but once someone goes sour – that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. This actually saves HMO’s, PPO’s, hospitals and taxpayers money. If we can cut hospitalizations for diabetes by just 50 percent – and we can – that will save millions of dollars a year.”

Rose has 30 VitalCare clinics throughout the country – but imagines more. “I see so many diabetics with complications…human beings who don’t know about - or can’t get to – a clinic. These patients don’t have to ‘go sour’ anymore.”
