For the second time in his life my husband has been diagnosed with borderline type 2 diabetes, to the point of having to test his blood twice a day. It's a horrible thing to watch your loved one go through and very scary if it runs in his family. I try to cook healthy meals but I cannot control what he eats when he's not home. The last time, over 10 years ago, I gave him Chromium and it worked, this time I gave him this product- Vanadium with Chromium. It worked faster than Chromium alone and it almost worked too well. If you're not testing your blood daily, be careful since this product could work so well that you end up with hypoglemia.
