Your Comments
 
I have just been told my level is borderline diabetic at 6-2. Do I need to have medication or can I control or even REVERSE the levels to normal? I cannot exercise because I have severe arthitis in both knees and I cannot walk very far so that is out of the question. I already eat quite healthily but my weight is very high due to lack of exercising.
