[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1036055, member: 196898"] I am still having difficulty seperating the effects of BM from my LCHF diet which are both active at the moment. Looking at the graphs i produced for my GP yesterday,I note that on the 2 occasions I used BM, then it is clear that there is definitely an effect in that all four of my daily tests converge to almost the same value but diverge when I stopped BM for a while. So, diet apart, it seems BM calms my swings and roundabouts, and I seem to get more repeatable responses. i cannot say that BM has reduced my bgl levels alone, since my diet also plays a major part there. But, I am running with much lower bgl than I was before. I am still taking BM, 2 caps a day. My GP supports me taking BM and also the LCHF diet since he never expected me to drop my HbA1c so dramatically. This has also prompted him to offer me what test strips I need to continue this work, no problems. Please note my previous posting above wrt possible stomach issues noted. [/QUOTE]
