I've been eating raw garlic the last few weeks and I'm feeling gooooood! It didn't change my blood sugar much but I have more energy over all. Only eat a few cloves of garlic at night, so I don't stink as much next day at work.

I just got the results of my 3-month FBG and A1c tests. They are nice; fgb 108 (my home test was 86 on my meter, but I had a walk and a bus trip to get to the lab) and the A1c is 5.3 The interest comes with the little test results sheet that came with the lab printout. It has a
