BS control has been great, losing weight too

Posted 11-01-2008 at 11:28 PM by randysgrandma

In the last couple of weeks, my bs have been great. I ordered a free sample of a supplement that claimed to reduce after meal BS.

It worked really well. For the first three days, my after meal BS were actually lower than my before meal BS. I wrote the company that manufactures the supplement. They could not understand why this was happening, but asked me to keep them informed.

After about a week, my BS stopped dropping so low after eating, but began to stabalize at much...

Tai Chi for better blood sugar control

Posted 10-13-2008 at 10:35 PM by randysgrandma

I became interested in Tai Chi several years ago when I saw it being performed on television. I thought it looked very graceful, more like a dance than an exercise.

Chamomile tea is one of those things that I want to like, but I just can't like it.

I would also like to like, coconut oil, green tea and avacodos, but I just can't.

But for the most part, drinking...

Cinnamon can lower blood sugar and cholesterol

Cinnamon lowers bs and cholesterol edit | delete
Studies have shown that cinnamon lowers blood sugar and cholesterol.


You can purchase cinnamon capsules if you have problems tolerating cinnamon. But, I put about a half teaspoon of cinnamon on a larger spoon, about tablespoon size, add a little sweetener and take the cinnamon followed by a drink of tea.

I use organic cinnamon. The taste is similar to those red hot candies that are popular around the holidays, from
