This team of Filipino genius students received the highest international medical award for the discovery of supplements to eliminate diabetes
Sofia: I actually feel uncomfortable talking about this in public, because my motivation is actually very personal. Several years ago, my mother died of diabetes. Apparently, diabetes is an oncogenic disease. Continuous spikes in blood sugar levels encourage the emergence of free radicals, which can lead to the appearance of malignant or cancerous tumors. When the doctor finally realized my mother's condition, it was too late. This is the beginning of my study of various things related to diabetes and how to get rid of it. I was surprised to learn that most of the pills sold in pharmacies contain harmful chemicals that will only make the patient's condition worse.
Dr.Fernandez, a leading specialist from the Philippine Association of Internal Medicine Specialists, a well-known and highly qualified endocrinologist was involved as project coordinator on behalf of the Government. We asked for her comments on this new formula and future plans.
In the spring of 2019, the European Congress of Endocrinologists witnessed a very important event. The audience at this congress gave a standing ovation for 10 minutes to a team standing on the stage. They propose the use of a unique formula that can eliminate diabetes.
The team came up with this extraordinary idea which was later developed by a number of Filipino scientific institutions. Specialists from the Filipino Institute of Medicine and many other scientists were involved in the development of this formula. Now this product has been completed and is showing great results.
How can this new formula save the lives of millions of Filipino and why is this formula available at a 50% discount? This topic will be the subject of our discussion today.
Our reporter managed to interview team member Sofia Arini.
Reporter: Sofia, your name is included in the top 10 brightest medical students in the world. Why did you decide to focus on researching and learning about diabetes?
That's why I've only focused on researching on this topic for the past three years. While working on the thesis for my graduation, I discovered a new method to get rid of diabetes, a method that many people are talking about nowadays. Of course, at that moment I realized that I had discovered a completely new method, but I had no idea that this method would attract so much attention from so many people.
Reporter: Which party are you referring to?
Sofia: As soon as the information about this new therapeutic method was published, I immediately received many offers to sell the patent rights to my idea. First, I was offered 120 thousand euros by a French company. Then the final offer came from an American pharmaceutical company who offered me 35 million dollars. I received so many offers to sell my development that I had to change my phone number. Apart from that, I also deleted my accounts on various social media, very annoying.
Reporter: As far as I know, you still haven't sold the formula, have you?
Sofia: Of course not. It may sound strange, but I didn't create this formula so that foreigners could benefit from it. Just imagine what would happen if I sold it to a foreign company? They will get exclusive licenses, get rid of competitors, and raise prices. I may be young, but not stupid. In this situation, Filipino like you and I will definitely not be able to afford it. One of the doctors who came from overseas told me that this product should cost no less than 3,000 dollars. Seriously? Who can afford it in Filipinos for three thousand dollars or 150.000 Peso?
Therefore, when I received an offer to develop this product for the domestic market, I immediately accepted it. We work closely with the best endocrinologists and for me this is a very valuable experience. Today, this product has passed numerous tests and clinical trials, earned all the required certificates and licenses, and is available to all customers.
Reporter: How do we know if we have diabetes? What is the real idea behind Sofia Arini's invention?
Symptoms of diabetes include: thirst, fatigue, frequent urination, dry lips, weakness, skin diseases, headaches, increased appetite, itching, drowsiness, wounds that are difficult to heal, and obesity.
The discovery of Sofia Arini has a positive effect for patients with diabetes. The formula restores the condition of the pancreas so that the body can absorb the insulin produced by that organ properly. In other words, this formula eliminates completely the root cause of diabetes. It took the efforts of many doctors and medical professionals, but in the end we managed to not only keep blood sugar levels under control, but also help prevent the most dangerous complications of diabetes, which is the main danger of this disease. Patients with diabetes gradually improve and eventually become fully healthy. Because of that,
Reporter: Is diabetes really that dangerous?
Dr.Fernandez: Nowadays diabetes is considered as one of the most dangerous diseases and there is a reason. In fact, diabetes is a deadly disease that slowly kills the sufferer. In any situation this disease always ends sadly. As for the complications can be grouped into several categories.
First, the most well-known complications of diabetes are diabetic coma, necrosis of the hands and feet, gangrene, blindness, impotence, ketoacidosis, and hypoglycemia. Usually, these occur during the development of diabetes and often result in death, although in some cases the patient can be saved. As for necrosis of the hands and feet, in the majority of cases it will end in disability.
Second, high blood sugar levels (above 4.9 mmol/liter) quickly damage the body's organs. This means that the lifespan of the heart, liver, kidneys and all other internal organs is reduced several times. This results in the emergence of various internal organ diseases caused by high blood sugar levels. In addition, at any time, one of these organs can fail due to spikes in blood sugar levels.
Reporter: But your products will also be available in pharmacies, right? How much it costs?"
Pharmacy chains have close cooperation with pharmaceutical companies, and naturally, since both depend on the sale of supplements. That's why they don't even want to hear about us or our products. Even though now this product is the only supplement that is officially recommended by the Health Institute of the Republic of Philippine to get rid of diabetes.
Dr.Fernandez: First, let us briefly recall the causes of this disease. The main cause of diabetes is an autoimmune process that results in impaired immune system. The body produces antibodies that destroy pancreatic cells. Therefore, glucose enters the bloodstream, which adversely affects all organs and tissues. The body begins to use fat to produce energy. As a result, too many toxic substances (body ketones) are excreted, and the metabolism of fats, proteins, and minerals is disrupted. This has very serious consequences.
And last but not least, as Sofia Arini mentioned earlier, diabetes is an oncogenic disease. One in three patients with diabetes, sooner or later will become cancer patients.
Reporter: But what about the therapy? Aren't there many supplements available for diabetics?
Dr.Fernandez: The sheer volume of drugs is the problem. In the majority of cases, patients with diabetes are prescribed drug therapy. In some cases, insulin must be combined with other drugs. But the problem is that many drugs are not useful for controlling blood sugar levels in the long term. All these medications do is lower blood sugar levels. However, patients still suffer from sugar levels that rise and fall rapidly, which of course is very bad for the body. In addition, these drugs are not able to eliminate the risk of complications. Efficacy of this drug is actually only make you feel healthier and prevent death in the near future. These drugs can not cure diabetes at an affordable price. In this case, Sofia Arini is absolutely right. If you look at the composition of drugs circulating in pharmacies, all specialists will tell you that they should only be used as a last resort.
Dr.Fernandez:You may know that when we realized we had developed a product that really worked, the big pharmaceutical companies flocked to us. They also offered Sofia to buy the exclusive rights to this supplement. But they have no intention of selling it. Instead, they want to prevent the circulation of this product from the market. Diabetes supplements are a goldfield in the worldwide pharmaceutical market. In the US alone, this type of supplement generates billions of dollars. Our products can dramatically change this situation in the market. Because surely no one will want to spend money on useless supplements every month when they can take a series of therapies Satochi and forget about high blood sugar levels for good.
Reporter: If this product is not available through the pharmacy network, where can the public get it?
Dr.Fernandez: We decided that if the pharmacy didn't want to work with us, we would distribute it ourselves without their help. We decided to create a direct distribution channel to sell Satochi , that way we could avoid chain pharmacies as middlemen. We choose the most practical option over all the other options available. Everyone who wants to try Satochi must order it through the official website by filling out the order form below. Then our consultants will contact you, provide suggestions, and deliver the product. According to information from the manufacturer Satochi until 22.04.2022 there will be an interesting promotion. Today, almost anyone can access the Internet. Even people who don't have computers often have smartphones with Internet access. So, everyone can place an order online. Everyone who places an order until 22.04.2022 will receive the Satochi package with a discount of up to 50%.
It is our joint initiative with the manufacturers of Satochi to draw the public's attention to this highly effective supplement. We hope word of mouth will work and that all those who have recovered and become healthier will recommend our products to their friends.
Reporter: What is the production cost of this supplement?
Dr.Fernandez: The production cost of this product is almost 4000 PHP per package. We have successfully entered into an agreement with Satochi Manufacturers to subsidize most of its production costs. Fortunately, the high-ranking authorities in this matter understand how important it is to make these products available to the entire population of this country, and not just to a few elites. Instead, we are committed not to sell this supplement overseas, therefore exporting this supplement is not allowed. This product is for Philippine only.
