A member asked:
Is it true that cactus is good for diabetics? i've eaten it in hopes for good results on my glucose.

You don't really: Believe that, do you? If it were true, it would be recommended by all doctors for their patients with diabetes. There is no food or otc pill or supplement that helps diabetes - only keeping glucose normal, eating less and losing weight, following your team's recommendations, monitoring, etc. Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet.
