Hi Blurose, Try a bark tea from Guatemala called Milagro De Lasellva a website that I purchase from is http://www.dinapharm.com
My father takes it and his blood Sugar has gone from about 120s back to the 90s... My cousin Type 1 I let her try a package of tea only drinking it once a day instead of 3 times as they recommend her insulin uinits went from 34 to 22 per day.
Becareful of Iodine in like Lugols as it stains countertops it also stains the GI track thus not allowing commensals to take hold in the GI system... The Commensals make up your immune system and about 90 percent of all cells in your body...So in the long run you will be destroying your body for short term gain.
