@loribmt Thank you, Lori! I couldn't have asked for a more complete explanation. About the juice bust, I figure I was up against something much more complex than Type 2 Diabetes, and what you've written here certainly confirms that's the case. Ah, but there were some things about the cranberry juice that I really did enjoy (no, not so much the flavor!), such as a moderating effect on body pain, especially in my feet, and I noticed an increase in my balance and coordination. I sure missed all this today when I was out doing photography!

Hi @garyr443 Just wondering, Is there any reason you can’t still take the cranberry juice daily even though you’re back on the HU and the BP med? I ran a drug interaction and there aren’t any contraindications between cranberry, lisinopril and HU.

The anti-inflammatory properties of the unsweetened cranberry juice were certainly noticed by you over the month with less pain and an increase in balance and coordination. Not sure why you can’t have some in moderation. I drink unsweetened Monterey cherry juice daily. (1 ounce Concentrated juice gets mixed with 8 oz water). I think it would be similar in properties as your cran juice. Just a thought…
