abstract: We were checking the thermal waters of Varazdinske Toplice--sulfuric mineral calcium natrium hydrocarbonic sulfatic hyperthermic (t: 57.8 st. C, H2S: 8.1 mg/l, min: 955 mg/l mvol uk. 24.70 Ca: 50.12 mvol%, HCO3 54.12 mval%, SO4 26.18 mval%) on the sugar level in the patient's blood, suffering from Diabetes mellitus. We were following the state of 35 patients who were on the peroral therapy with the antidiabetics and ADA diet before coming in our hospital. We excluded the medication therapy at the beginning of the experiment. The patients were drinking 1200 ml of mineral water daily and spent 30 min bathing in the same water. The checking lasted 20 days in the average, and the level of GUK was measured every third day. The results are encouraging, further examinations are still lasting.
