I had a diabetes coach suggest I ask my doctor about it to see if it will help me to lose weight. I only need to lose about 50 pounds (I had lost 40, then gained back 10 when I lost my job last April). Can anyone tell me what side effects there might be with this med? What does it do exactly? Does it work well for blood sugars as well as losing weight? Is there a website I can go to so I can read up on it? I see my doctor on Monday and I want to know more about this before I ask her about it.

First I want to correct a statement made: Byetta is not made from the Gila Monster, it is a synthetic version of a protein produced by the Gila monster.
The most common side effect of Byetta is nausea, it usually goes away over time in most patients.
Weight loss is also a side effect, so therefore you may not loss weight.
Byetta is for type 2 diabetes and it has not been FDA approved to use with insulin.
The best place for information is on the website: www.byetta.com

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

byetta is a new drug on the market that is made from the poison in the gila monster. it was developed in arizona and how it was discovered was doctors were noticing a trend that when people would get bitten by a gila monster there blood sugar levels would drop very rapidly. i'm unaware of the potetntial it has with losing weight, but if you have problems with higher blood sugars it may be a good presrciption to try out. it is still new enough as well that there is no generics available and there are many pharmacies that still don't carry it....
a great website is
