A member asked:

M57, abstaining from fruits due to fasting sugar 120. what vitamin and supplement required to compensate.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get second opinion: If you have a fasting blood sugar of 120 on a couple of occasions, you probably have honest-to-goodness diabetes and need to get properly treated with fitness, medications, and a more rational and scientific diet plan than just not eating fruit. Truth is, i think fruit's probably good for you rather than cookies and soda pop & this might be a time to come to appreciate it more. Be proactive.
