\r\n \r\n I think I\'d seen that ad before...maybe even a year ago.....I didn\'t buy it.
\nYou know what they say about "if something sounds too good to be true" it probably isn\'t true.
\nAnd I know of no one else who bought it either.\r\n

\r\n \r\n JanH, just try turmeric (curcumin) for sugar lowering help. Try one capsule of 500mg one day and test your sugar the next morning. You may be surprised.
\n
\nMany other benefits of turmeric too. https://www.turmeric-curcumin.com/ You should be able to find turmeric at your local health food store. If you climate is like central Texas, now is not the time to order any herb or supplement for delivery. Triple digit heat.
\n
\nThere are other herbs that are great at keeping sugar under control. https://mountainmistbotanicals.com/formulas/sugar.htm\r\n

\r\n \r\n jfh, thanks. I already take turmeric, gymnema, chromium, ALA, vanadium, numerous other supplements. I take no insulin or pharmaceuticals to help control my blood sugar. If I\'m careful with what I eat and maintain my exercise program, my A1C and fasting are all on the highish side of normal range. Dr. Ripich promises an actual "cure," not just control, which is what interested me. Those who give testimonials on the link I provided are very enthusiastic, of course, but I\'m always suspicious of those. I was hoping for someone on this site who\'d actually bought the book and tried the program.\r\n

\r\n \r\n I understand JanH. I just don\'t see why anyone would buy such a book, if they are already knowledgeable, of diabetes, as you seem. Look at the Day-1 through Day-10 steps. Does that seem like there would be a cure? Day-2 says simply add a little of this spice ... which he won\'t tell you until you buy the book. I just supplied you a list of such. The rest just seems like common sense for diabetics of type 2. He talks about certain beverages and carbs to stay away from. Your own research can tell you such.
\n
\nAs he says, the key to reversing diabetes is not will power, it is brainpower. But I also think will power is important when trying to follow a diet or dietary plan. He does give you "secrets" to help that brainpower.
\n
\n50 dollars "right now" plus free gifts. And that is a $20 discount for a while. Well I suppose. You might want it for you library and friends.\r\n

\r\n \r\n Greetings.
\n first post of a Type 2 diabetic + other issues I\'m hoping to cure.
\n
\nI use Natrol\'s Cinnamon Extract 1000 mg and I eat a boring diet mostly. 1 tablet or sometimes 2 tablets if I\'m splurging (on holidays) does the job quick enough.
\nIf not I pace a few times or walk the block..
\n
\nMy Mum takes these in the morning if her sugar is high and she is type 1. She still needs her insulin.
\n
\n
\nIt\'s real cinnamon and not the table kind which is only flavored.
\n
\nand for the chocolate cravings...
\nI eat a single Mounds and it don\'t raise my sugars very much. Lately I\'ve been eating too many of these but one at a time. My sugars levels are rarely over 180 most of the time under 160.\r\n

\r\n \r\n 21 grams. That is about 5 teaspoons of sugar. The first ingredient is corn syrup (really high fructose corn syrup - that\'s the worse). The third ingredient is sugar.
\n
\nDon\'t fool yourself.\r\n

\r\n \r\n Well in order to cure diabetes, I am told that you need to eliminate all unhealthy fats as well. No more cooking with vegetable or canola oil. Take flaxseed oil w/low fat cottage cheese no less than 4 TBS of flaxseed oil daily. No more fast foods, etc. No hydrogenated oils or trans-fats. In 30 - 90 days you will have gotten rid of the bad oils that line your cells and cause insulin resistance.
\n
\nAdditionally, I have read that you can reverse diabetes by eating RAW FOOD for about 30 days.\r\n
