I was immediately prescribed Metformin, Statins and Aspirin. My doctor advised me that he expected to put me on InsulinInsulin is a hormone made by the pancreas. It is responsible for making the body’s cells absorb glucose (sugar) from the blood…. at my annual review.

I began to follow the low GL diet and in 12 months I lost over 6 stone and was able to come off all medication; my HbA1c was 5.1. I have continued on the Low GL diet, my weight has remained stable and my doctor considers me to be ‘cured’ as my blood sugar levels remain ‘normal’.
