I was going to cut one of my Metformin pills but put it off when I got a little sick and had higher numbers, so now I am feeling very well eating veggies out of my garden and my numbers are staying low. I am feeling mentally much better and notice the difference in my thinking as well. I have lost several pounds, finally, and eat less beef, relying on fish and fresh vegetables and one serving of a multigrain bread. I attribute the good feeling to the fresh vegetables and those wonderful, fresh tomatoes every day. I must remember to purchase a variety of fresh food when the garden is finished, but right now I have lettuce, radishes, and a few beet tops to eat. I have turnips growing for my son. I have plenty of red sweet peppers and will freeze some for adding to winter recipes. I also have sweet potatoes to dig and no longer grow white potatoes. My blood pressure is lower but not down to normal yet. I stay isolated at home. Dorisena
