COLD-fX has been demonstrated safe and effective in healthy individuals. Clinical trials have not been conducted specifically in diabetic populations. Individuals with diabetes were permitted to participate in our US-regulated trials in seniors; blood glucose was not affected by COLD-fX intake and the frequency of adverse events was not different in the COLD-fX versus the placebo (control) group. However, to ensure that COLD-fX is safe to consume in your specific situation, we recommend consulting a health care practitioner and monitoring of general health and glucose levels when taking COLD-fX. Our laboratory studies suggest that the COLD-fX herbal remedy for colds and flu is unlikely to interact with other medications, including anti-diabetic drugs, but to be safe, please speak to a health care practitioner if you are taking these medications before consuming COLD-fX.
