    Apple cider and metformin

    If I was you, I would not bother with it at all. Focus on your diet and exercise, get those and you can make a hell of difference to your blood sugars. Apple cider vinegar get a lot press but it doesn't do half the things that are claimed.

    Gym

    Yeah, I take creatine, too. It was one of the best supplements to take. It is so well studied. You must be getting seriously into training if your looking at creatine? but to be fair there is only a hand full of supplements worth taking. The rest are just a waste of money. They are...
