What's been your blood sugar experience?
I was diagnosed with PMR in early January. I also did the Hemoglobin A1C test at about the same time. The test indicated that I have just crossed over into the pre-diabetic area. I am a 63 year old male and had just done the test course of Prednisone a couple of weeks before the A1C test. I don't know

Fasting and CLL
I am reading posts from a couple years ago about CLL and fasting. Does anyone have long term results they’ve experienced/ not experienced. My husband is a big advocate of fasting and I am wondering whether it will be useful. Diagnosed May 2018. Still w&w. Thanks!

Can I stop taking metformin?
Since May 2017 I have been reducing my carb intake and also doing intermittent fasting - I skip breakfast. My doctor has taken out Dibizide M from my prescription and I am now on just 250 mg metformin at night. I also do a 36 or 48 hour water fast once a week. My HbA1c has come down to 5.4 from 6.4 and

Atorvastatin & PMR is there a connection?
Hi, I was diagnosed with PMR in August 2017. Started on 10mg and now down to 5mg for the second time. I also have familial cholesterol which was diagnosed approx. 10 years ago. So I take 40mg of Atorvastatin every night. is there any clinical evidence that there is a link between statins and PMR. Thanks

Can metformin start causing side effects after you have been taking it for a long time?
I have been taking metformin since this past summer but for the past few months, I have been having really bad shortness of breath to the point of it being painful. I also just found out that metformin can cause b12 deficiency as well as shortness of breath. I will be having my b12 levels checked later

Gluten Free Bread and GF baking,
Hi folks, for this who need a GF diet there's more to just replicating gluten when baking. One really important thing that is overlooked is the temperature that a grain starts to cook at (gelatinisation temperature) and with wheat it is 48C potato and tapioca 62C rice 72C soy 79C so this is why most

Deficiency in coenzyme Q10, can increase Diabetic Risk.
Simple molecule could prevent, alleviate Pre-diabetes risk increased by coenzyme Q10 deficiency. Restoring levels of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ), a key molecule in energy production in cells, could overcome insulin resistance or pre-diabetes -- a precursor to type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Allopathy and Ayurveda
My mother aged 72 has Type 2 diabetes for 20 years plus. She has multiple disc issues and unable to walk. We tried Ayurveda treatment for her disc. Ayurveda medicines brought down her sugar levels. Is it safe to consume both allopathy and Ayurvedic medicines together ?

Ribollita ~ Italian winter soup...
Lots of different recipes from The Graun, though it’s more of a throw beans & veg in the pot. Cavolo is compulsory for me, & I like to use borlotti beans. It’s also nice with pasta, though this doesn’t seem to improve the texture if it lasts as long as day 2. Today’s version: Two large garlic cloves
