Diabetes
Read what our customers have to say about our amazing 100% pure blueberry juice here!
We live in Auckland and have a son David (14) who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes four years ago. He has been on insulin since then. A few weeks ago we started to give him Mamaku Blue Juice daily and noticed that Davids blood sugar has been consistently lower than before. He does not seem to have as many spikes in sugar levels as he did before. We feel that the juice has definitely helped stabilize his sugar levels and we have therefore started to give him much lesser insulin than we have been giving him prior to having the juice. David has a sensor on his arm that detects his blood sugar levels and so we regularly observe how he is doing through the day and night. Since having the juice we have noticed a remarkable stability in his sugar levels right through the day. We are hugely grateful for your juice and wanted to say thank you! *Results may vary.

I have been giving the blueberry juice to my Mum for around 4 to 5 months now. She is a Type 2 Diabetic. Since having the juice daily, she has noticed an improvement in her blood sugars. They no longer fluctuate throughout the day as they did before. An example, prior to taking the juice, if she did not eat her lunch at 12 on the dot, this would result in a blood sugar low pretty promptly, requiring her to drink or eat something fast! She now has no issues if she eats her lunch a little later, often lasting until 1pm or later with no crashes! She also mentioned recently that she feels her eyesight has improved as she found herself in a situation where she needed to read a book and did not have her glasses with her. Usually she wouldn’t be able to read it, but she attempted it and much to her surprise was able to read the few pages she needed to with no trouble and without her glasses. She says this has not happened before and attributes this to the juice. My Mum and I are very pleased with the results and will continue to have the juice daily (100-150mls daily). Thanks so much! *Results may vary.

I started on Mamaku Blue juice earlier in the year after doing some researches and it shows that Blue berry juice is great for people with type 2 diabetes with kidney issues. Since taking the juice my urinal tests has dropped from 37 to 32 and improving. The aim is to go below 30 which is the norm. I take a glass a day on an empty stomach and this seems to work just fine. I would continue to order the Juice from Mamaku Blue and would recommend it to anyone. Many thanks and I look forward to dealing with you all at Mamaku blue. You have a great team there. *Results may vary.

We are from Samoa and my husband was advised that most probably he will have dialysis early this year. This was last year. He began searching in the Internet for help and he found Mamaku Blueberry Juice. After taking Mamaku Blueberry Juice for 6 months plus having a diabetic diet his glucose level is now normal and he is not taking anymore Metformin tablet which he used to take a daily dose and also the specialist has also told him that his kidneys have no clots and they are stabilized. We highly recommend Mamaku Blueberry Juice to everyone who has diabetic and kidney problems. We would like everyone with this problem to know that there is a solution. *Results may vary.

My mother has type 2 diabetes, which has brought about very poor kidney function as well as other health issues, so last year we did some research and read good things about your Mamaku blueberry juice and decided to get some for her to try and mum has not looked back since. It has helped her kidney function stabilize, given her more energy and generally helped her overall health since she has started taking it. Thank you for such a great product Nicola. *Results may vary.

OUR CUSTOMER WHO HAS GONE OFF DIALYSIS BY TAKING MAMAKU BLUE PURE, 100% BLUEBERRY JUICE. It was in early July 2014 that my wife was admitted to hospital with kidney failure. At 85 years of age she was already a diabetic on 32 units of injected insulin daily and had had a pacemaker inserted in 2013 and also had severe osteoarthritis affecting the whole of her spinal column. She was also legally blind and wore a hearing aid in both ears. For 3 days after her admission she was in a coma and was given a slow dialysis after which she slowly regained consciousness. Her urine output early was nil or next to nothing and this was so for many weeks. The official medical outlook was most pessimistic but she was maintained on 3 dialysis sessions per week. I learned from the internet about favourable responses attributed to the use of blueberry juice in renal failure, especially on your site at Mamaku Blue.
After consulting with her dietitian and her physician, I started her on
Mamaku Blue in September. The first thing that I soon noticed was a mild but quite distinct improvement in her urine output and that in itself was encouraging. Finally, she was allowed home with strict attention to diet in late November but still on 3 dialyses per week. Unfortunately, she had been home for only 3 weeks when she suffered an embolic stroke on Christmas Day 2014 and was admitted back into hospital. She still has a left-sided paresis (arm and leg) and is now bed-ridden but she communicates well and is a pure delight. Her facial palsy is almost undetectable. It was not until early February 2015 that she was again allowed home from hospital as we had arranged for home nursing and home dialysis. Since September 2014 and throughout all this, I had been able to maintain her intake of 150 mls of Mamaku blueberry juice daily. She has recently amazed us all when her renal function began to show definite signs of improvement and the renal physician began to reduce her dialysis from 3 sessions to 2 sessions per week. Then, to our final amazement he announced that she had improved to such an extent that she could come off dialysis altogether. She has been without dialysis now since early March 2015 (the past 9 weeks) and, what’s more, she no longer requires her daily dose of insulin! Her back pain has improved to the extent that she no longer takes any regular analgaesics for it. All her other physical signs and observations are within the normal range.Her last blood test about 10 days ago showed a still further improvement in renal function and she seems to be going well. As well as wonderful medical attention and nursing care there have no doubt been many prayers offered for her recovery during this period and we are thankful indeed for them all.
Nonetheless, there is no doubt in our mind that Blueberry juice has been the main vehicle by which her amazing improvement has been achieved and we are most grateful for that and also to Anne Frost at Mamaku Blue for her early encouragement ’to try it out.
This seems a long testimonial but it is worth telling despite our age and maybe more so because of the age! Anyway, we would be happy for you to use the above.
Best wishes and thank you again. *Results may vary.

I purchased the Mamaku Blueberry Juice when I was desperate for something to help my 89 year old father, with his failing kidney function.
At that stage he had 20% function and was failing fast. Doctors really didn’t have any answers, except to say that he would soon need to consider dialysis. After 3 weeks of taking the juice, his kidney function improved to 29%. Doctors couldn’t believe it as they had told him the best they expected was that he may hold at 20% if he was lucky. Three weeks later, there was further improvement to 38% and after another month it has improved further to 44%. There have been no other changes to his medication and this we believe is all due to the Blueberry Juice, of which he takes 150ml per day.
My mother of 85 years, has Type 2 diabetes and suffers repeated urinary tract infections. She struggled to keep her blood sugar reading stable. Readings would range from 7 to 10 and sometimes higher. She has also decided to take the juice and has had fabulous blood sugar readings of 5 and 6 since being on the juice. They are both very happy and extremely relieved. I have no doubt it is helping in other areas as well. This will be a standard order for them now. There are just too many benefits to even consider not taking the Mamaku Blueberry Juice. It’s hard to believe that something that tastes so good, can actually be good for you ! Thank you so very much for this wonderful product. You have no idea how much pain and anxiety has disappeared from our lives since we found your company and ordered this amazing product. *Results may vary.

I have been taking the Mamuku berry juice for three weeks now and already I can see the difference in my skin. I am Type 2 Diabetic and therefore it takes much longer for skin conditions/cellulitis to heal. I have had a rash on my arm for months and since taking the juice for only three weeks the rash has completely gone. My BSL has shown great improvement. Thank you so much for this wonderful product. Regards, LYNDELL. *Results may vary.

Rick suffers from diabetes and has had cellulitice and swelling of the legs. He has had 2 bouts of cellutice and often has leg swelling.When taking the blueberry juice his sugar levels lower and he generally feels better in himself. His legs heal quicker if he gets any small wounds which is very important for a diabetic. His circulation also improves which helps with the swelling of the legs.
Over a period of about 4 months he stopped taking the juice and tried an alternative that someone suggested which was massage of the legs with coconut juice to improve circulation. He initially had success but this was not long term and his overall health appeared to deteriorate.
We still had 3 bottles of juice left from our last order which has begun taking again over the last 2 weeks and I can see an improvement in his energy levels already along with more consistent blood sugar readings which are ranging from lows of around 3.9 to highs of 9 or 10 maximum. Normally around the 6 to 8 range. These are really good for Ricky.
The skin on his legs looks a lot better and he generally is feeling well.
I have placed another order which should arrive in the next day or so and I don’t think he will go off it again.
Look forward to the next batch of juice which I am going to start taking as well to see if I can improve my energy levels and reduce my blood pressure. Will 50 ml a day be okay for me. Rick takes 150 ml. *Results may vary.

I am a diabetic with type 2 diabetes on insulin which gave complications to my kidney. I was seen by the doctor on a monthly basis to monitor the function of my kidney, but on my fifth visit to the doctor I was told that my next appointment will be in a year’s time. I believe the Mamaku Blueberry Juice made a difference.
I use to have trouble with my eyesight giving me blurred vision when my sugar level reading rises in the 10 to 15 range. The Blueberry Juice has made a difference – today my eyesight is clear.
The Mamaku Blueberry Juice is a blessing – Thanks to Anne and the team at Mamaku Blue. *Results may vary.

I am a diabetic with type 2 diabetes, this led to my kidney failure. I lost at least 75% of my kidney function, and was on Hemodialysis at the hospital for up to 6 hours every day.
I was introduced to Mamaku Blue Pure – 100% Blueberry Juice in January this year 2013. I took the suggested amount for kidney failure of 150mls per day. This had an immediate effect of increasing my urine output from just a quarter of a litre a day to filing the litre bottle and this has continued until the present day. I believe this Mamaku Blue Juice seems to have kicked my kidneys into life again. I am now on APD Dialysis at home, plugged in at night while I sleep – I have my life back, I can now do other activities in the day time.
I had trouble with my eyes my vision was blurred, but after drinking this Mamaku Blue Blueberry Juice my vision became clear – however when I ran out of Juice my vision became blurry again once back on the Juice my vision cleared. Amazing result.
The Mamaku Blue Pure 100% Blueberry Juice still has it’s natural sugars but did not seem to have a negative affect on my blood sugar levels which remain to be quite good. I believe it has also helped my pancreas which is now functioning better.
My energy levels have really increased since having the Mamaku Blue Juice, declines when I run out, and comes back when I start the Juice again.
On the medical side my doctor is very pleased with my medical results and has informed me that my blood count is becoming normal, so I do not have to take the blood count pills anymore, he has also taken me off the pills that stopped the potassium and calcium build up in my body as the levels of both are now normal.
I believe the Mamaku Blue Juice takes the toxins and excess fluid out of your body. I am so pleased I found it – but wish I had been introduced to this Mamaku Blue Pure 100% Blueberry Juice before my kidneys had got so bad. *Results may vary.

I am in my early 50’s and work full-time in a very demanding role. I am also in the midst of menopause, have high blood pressure and have had unstable blood sugar levels that were heading into abnormal levels.
Earlier this year, my husband came across the blueberry juice at a farmers market and after chatting with the stallholder about the benefits, decided to purchase a bottle for me to try.
So for the next week each morning, I was drinking a nip of 150mls before heading off to work.
By mid-week, instead of dragging myself home after work to collapse on the couch for a nap, I was actually able to get home and have the energy to get some chores done straight away.
We definitely thought we were on to a good thing so put an order in so that our adult daughters could try the juice too.
Three months down the track, we are really starting to feel the benefits.
I am finding so much more energy to cope with stressful workloads. I have increased clarity of thought, especially for problem solving and working more efficiently through an ability to organise my thoughts, (which is not always easy for menopausal women!).
My blood sugar levels are stable, as I’m not feeling ‘highs & lows’ through the day and my blood pressure recordings have dropped at least 20mmols on both diastolic and systolic readings.
My daughters are reporting increased vitality, stomach ease and have described a feeling ‘level moodedinness’.
Our family is amazed at the quality of this juice – thank you! *Results may vary.
