Seen many like you for over 30 years. Several I had contact with have died after a real bad time. Control is the name of the game. Some of the article is good but there is no CURE. Some American agencies keep up the Cure routine to collect money. Five years is the buzz word. I have lived through several five year promises. I suggest the money is attracting people that will never find a cure.

DeWayne - you may have missed this section in our charter: http://www.alt-support-diabetes.org/Charter.htm "It is not intended that this group would carry commercial messages, binaries or HTML." That's why you're going to get a hostile reaction. I had a glance. I'm not sure I could handle broccoli and brussels sprouts daily for the rest of my life. Of course, the title is pure sales hype. I'll give you this; you're not all that far from us by the sound of it - but we don't cost $24.95. I don't agree with your juice ideas, or just four tests a day. I vaguely remember you appearing here before; different addy. I wonder how much of asd and mhd appear unattributed. I'd be interested in chatting to you - if you weren't here trying to make money instead of learning and supporting for free. Maybe I should write a book. No - cancel that. I'm too lazy:-) Cheers, Alan, T2, Australia. d&e, metformin 2x500mg -- Everything in Moderation - Except Laughter.

Once you have tested different foods, quantities, etc & know your body & food/ exercise interactions & have fairly stabilized your diet, what exactly is the point in testing more than a few times a week - especially considering you are a T2 & only on Metaformin.

How many of us actually know that? Maybe if we ate a boring routine formula and lived a boring routine lifestyle. I can only go by what I do myself. I accept that YMMV. There are some days when I don't test at all now; but there are still days when I am trying new foods or changing exercise routines where I may test a lot more. I like variety in my diet, so I can't assume things. Like today, when I thought that I may now, having started on metformin a while back, be able to have a sandwich for lunch with two slices of multigrain. I was wrong, and had my highest reading (8.9 - 160) for quite a while. That test led to a couple of others to see how much I dropped after trying to swim it off. After the pool - 6.6(119), another hour 3.8(68). Like the old days - the higher I go, the lower I go. Later, I tried a little extra brown rice with my curry at dinner - and that 1hr PP was OK at 6.6. So, in future I know I can have more carbs in the evening but I'm still restricted at noon. That was a worthwhile test, offering more freedom of choice when dining out. In general, these days I probably average 2-5 tests a day. However, the OP is promoting a book for newbies. That is a quite different situation and there I advocate testing up to ten times daily in the initial learning phase.
