    Amlopidine Any Problems

    Hi, All has anyone had any problems with amlopidine. Prescribed about 3 months ago and started getting leg pains, I put this down to recently starting at the gym. 3 months later and attending the gym at least 5 times a week the pain is still there. Wondering if this drug could be the cause. Rob

    Can heavy weight training reverse type 2

    Question for all with more knowledge than me. Can heavy weight training and low carb ( about 75gr per day) reverse type 2 diabetes?

    Thanks, very hard work but worth it. Now walking 15 miles a week and 4 nights a week at the gym. It pays to take control and look after yourself.
