From elsewhere in the forum it seems like intermittent fasting is the way to go to lose weight AND fix those beta cells. Sadly I've already lost weight by eating a low carb diet and moving more. I'm now on a BMI of 20 and if I go much lower I'll be pretty skinny (and wrinkly). Is it advisable to...

I might join this thread if that's okay. I'm really keen on trying the HITT to get my blood sugar down. This morning 6.0

I've heard of golden paste. Supposed to be good for a lot of things. Let us know if you think it works. Just be aware that ginger also thins your blood, I think?

I don't think I can drink that. Tried it in stir-fry once. Terribly bitter..but thanks for the info :)

Try low carb :) Side-effect of lowering your blood sugar with a low carb diet. My blood pressure's never been better before as well.

Has anyone had any success with using spices to lower blood sugar? After going thru lots of information I've started on Curcumin tablets (Turmeric). I'm not really a person that usually believes in these things, but after being diagnosed with pre-diabetes I really would like to reverse it. I'm...

Hi, I also was recently diagnosed with Prediabetes ( Nov last year). At first I cut out white bread, potatoes, white rice and pasta. I changed my lunch to salad, no bread, (at least never white bread), for dinner, lots of vegies, low fat meat and small amount of brown rice, sweet potato or just...

Thanks for answering. I know it's different for everybody, but it's great to hear about others success stories. You've done so well, I will persevere and try and get there as well..

Thanks for that. It's really good to hear that it can be done. I'll just keep going with the low carb diet and adding some HITT. It's only been 4 months, but I'm a bit impatient to see results.

I didn't know about the protein. I did think on going vegetarian but it seemed to complex to do and being on a low carb diet as well. I think you're right about the exercise. I will try doing some after dinner. Maybe get an exercycle!! I've read high intensity should be really good? There's so...

Thanks for the advice. Do you think it's possible to restore the function of the beta cells, as some people proclaim, by losing weight and eating a low carb, high fat diet? Seems like you've done really well with your diet for a long time. Has anything changed from when you started this diet? Is...

Thanks, I do snack on nuts, but it seems the only way to get my fasting bloodsugar down is to eat nothing from 7pm. if I snack on nuts in the evening my BS will be 6.1 :(

Hi, Just got diagnosed with pre-diabetes in November 2016. I've always been slim, but gained a bit of weight over the last couple of years because of age? and a desk job. I'm 50 now and after being diagnosed googled for advice what to do. Basically I cut out most carbs, all white flour...
