Good evening and Happy New Year to all. I have some friends who have just been converted to the super juice me. They are not diabetic but apparently a type 1 reckoned they reduced their meds on it. I can only see they did so if they reduced their carb intake which I believe you can do by just reducing carbs rather than juicing fruit and veg. Maybe just eat fruit and veg then IE go veggie. What is the Diabetes co uk verdict on it? Mine is that it is a typical American marketing scam but I'm a British cynic.
 
Personally I'd rather eat fruit & veg in their natural state @lorretta , besides I would imagine breaking the fibres down in a blender would surely cause high bg spikes (but suppose you could work on the bolus timings to reduce the spike).
