Massive thankyou for the most comprehensive replies. Supplemental is my insurance policy if you will. Eating clean is my way forward.. (That can conjure an opinion or two![emoji4])

Hello Just wondering. I'm trialling coming off Metformin with my Doctor's blessing and taking a dietary approach with supplements of cinnamon, probiotics and plant sterols.. Question is..Is there a best time of day to take them or not? At the moment I take the lot when I get up. I could be...

Well what can I say. Thankyou for the flurry of responses, advice, experiences and suggestions. That made most informative reading. I've been off the Metformin for a week and to be honest I feel great and I'm losing some abdominal fat too. Of course I'm liasing with the Doctor about this in a...

I was med free type 2 for over 5 years, but a knee injury stopped me from combining my Vegan diet with my daily stint on the cross-trainer, therefore I suffered a recent spike in my hb1ac. I'm back on the exercise now and sticking with the plant-based foods as my cholesterol level (which prior...

Pop over to Twitter, if you can forgive the odd L.F.C and play tweet, I cook all things Vegan @theplayandratel

Link me ;)

I went Vegan.. I'm on the cold pressed flax oil now :) On the up side Cholesterol is great!

Thanks for all the helpful replies, I'm booked in to see the Doctor on Monday about it.

Hello, thanks for the reply.. Your post would suggest diet is the key to your personal success, may I ask what diet you are on (or not!) Thanks Chris
