A friend had given me a glucometer & I could plainly see, ADA was not the way to go.
. I am up to 3 miles a day. I have lost 26 lbs. I came across a website talking about glyconutrients and ordered a bottle.


I Anyone with suggestions or advice on what nutrients to take & how much?

Thanks
Julie
Dear Julie,
Your transformation is very impressive. I'm curious as to how you were able to see through the ADA dogma.
I was diagnosed two years ago with a blood glucoes of 268 and thanks to Atkin my fasting glucoise is now in the 90's. The lowering came in stages, but a big chunk came with induction.
The use of supplements recommended by Atkin is better described by "The Rosedale Diet," a book I found useful in addition to Atkin. I couldn't lower my blood pressure until I followed some of his recommendations on supplements.
Best of luck and congratulations on seeing through the ADA.
