Never tried it. I returned to a vegan based diet, this time with no booze and very few toxins. I was taking 2mg of Amaryl per day. The doc took me off the diabetic meds. My last 2 A1C tests have been 5.3, 5.5. I can now eat a banana and the glucose will read 110 a half hour later. I will always be a type 2 diabetic, but hopefully the symptoms will stay managed. I was very ill last year and had to take injectable insulin a few times. The mostly raw foods diet seems to be working.
