Great job!

Given the millions of Type 2 still out there struggling to control their glucose levels, we have been truly fortunate to have stumbled upon the effectiveness of a combination carbs reduction, fats and fasting.

Wow, well done really spurred me on and given me some hope, have yet to have another hba1c done since diagnosis in February, but have gone Lchf, have yet to try fasting.
