Answer 3

icunurse I am intrigued by what you mean when you say that female diabetics "need to be extra careful about cleaning up after." Also for diabetic females unless you just lie there, the actual act of sex will affect you. If your blood sugar starts at a normal level, you can go too low quickly, if you are too high you won't be a very active sexual partner because you will just want to lie around like a slug. Just like every other part of diabetes, it is a balancing act.

Answer 4

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.

Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.
