It might be…
Spinach. I checked my sugar level first thing this morning and then drank spinach and carrot juice and my level dropped a few points but not significantly.  I was a bit apprehensive about drinking green juice but I needed to know. It turns out that spinach and carrot juice is quite tasty. I think it takes a lot like the smell of freshly cut grass but sweeter because of the carrots. I could drink that every day. Let’s hope it is what I’m looking for.
As any type 2 diabetic will tell you, when you most want to test, that’s when you run out of little electrode strips. So I can’t test til I go to the pharmacy.
My daughter arrives in New Zealand today from Orlando. I haven’t seen her for a year so we have a lot of catching up to do. I’m still curious about what lowered my sugar so I’ll keep testing. I’ll pick up the strips at the pharmacy on the way to the airport this morning.
I’ll keep you posted! Anything not to have to take drugs would be such an improvement on my life. I hate taking medicine.

Good luck. This would really be awesome if it works. I have known several people who have managed their Type 2 with diet and have gone off the pills.
