being a diabetic and finding restrictions.to life style. people who do not understand the problems one has. not being able to afford to come back to uk for holidays as often, quite expensive. miss some foods that the French do not do. but can live with that French drivers. who love to tail gate. and they love to drive over the white line. in rural areas they are a pain. but get use to it. does put the wind up you. But driving in the UK found that drivers want to get as close as they can. and the traffic. it took me 25 minutes to get to friends house which was less then a mile away. due to traffic.
Hi I have read the reviews and thought I would try this. I have had it in coffee, taste ok. looking where I can buy the tablets that the guys have mentioned.

People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
I have a cinammon tablet from Healthspan each evening and think this helps me as I see better better levels when physically working...HOWEVER..

It won't help if you aren't actually monitoring your carb intake...

Rudeness, tv soaps.
Cinnamon works great for me, I just sprinkle it on most things and in drinks in powder form or buy the cinnamon sticks, never tried the tablets.
