I am diabetic and nothing worked for me, except this. NO meat, No sugar, No dairy, and no chocolate. I live on salads, nuts , beans tofu, and some cheese. The goat kind. That is the only dairy I get. I take lots of supplements and I excerise like a mad woman. So far I have lost 72 pounds and still loosing. My blood sugars are great, I am still taking meds, but everything is better now. you will be suprised how easy this really is. I am proof it works. I am still on high blood pressure meds too. I have dropped one of them and in the near future I hope to drop all of them. My Doctor says I am very well nourished and we have gone over all of it, so I know it is worthwhile. He agrees, it works.
