Dr. Stephen Berns answered

Diabetic diet: As an allopathic trained doctor, I would steer away from a lot of dietary supplements. Some of them are pharmaceutically active, but you don't know what you are getting for sure. I would suggest that if you are overweight, one of the most helpful things you could do would be to lose a few pounds. More exercise.
