Are you diabetic? If so please read.?
If so, you should be aware that products claiming that they are capable of regulating your blood sugar "naturally" are strictly BS and should not be used under any circumstances. I'm mainly referring to glymetorl, which is an herbal supplement that claims that it is capable of regulating blood sugar, however there are many other like it. Please be aware that these products do not work, and that they are designed to prey on the elderly and un-educated. If you, or anyone you know is taking, or is thinking about taking these products, please warn them that these products have never been tested on humans period. Just an FYI.

Glad to see someone posting this, I agree.
Also, "Diabetic Friendly" food products are also typically not diabetic friendly. Things like sugar-free cookies still contain plenty of flour and sugar alcohols, which cause a rise in blood sugars!!
Anything claiming to be "Diabetic Friendly" should be taken with caution!

Thanks for the warning. It's good to know that a lot of those products aren't really regulated. I mean look at all the weight loss supplements and look at what ephedrine did to all those people. It is wise not to buy into all the hooplah of that "quick fix" stuff.

I am diabetic. Thank you for giving out this advice on glymetorl. Fortunately I have never heard of this. However, I have heard of cinnamon helping diabetes, I hope this is not wrong too.
