I’ve introduced a friend to Anthony William’s books and blog and webinars. We both suffer from diabetes, so we both watched last night’s webinar on the liver and diabetes.
She asked me how my sugar levels were looking with all the fruit I’m eating now. Since I just saw my medical practioner last Thursday, I could share that after two months of eating on the diet and reducing my Metformin down to one pill a day, my A1C was the same as last year’s, which had been 6.4 – under the 7.0 that sets the alerts going.
Since I reduced the Metformin without checking with my practitioner, she was concerned that this might change. She asked me to check my blood sugar daily for two weeks and let the nurse know the results. I have been doing that and they continue to be excellent – with one exception, under 110 and all well under the 130 range they are looking for.
M.C. stated that she “felt hope now.” I’m glad. Without this diet, all we have is the rest of our lives on medication, with an expectation that of course, everything will likely get worse.
My cholesterol levels have improved as well, but two months is not the ideal length of time to show real improvement with cholesterol. When I have the levels checked again in December and if/when they show improvement at that time, then my practitioner will believe my diet change is helping. But I believe now.
