Kefir

P. Raghaven,

I have been taking kefir for no less than 6 months. This is my 2nd time trying. After taking about 4 months with no improvement I added Vit C 1500 mg and chlorophyll/ spirulina. Fasting b/g still high. 2hours After meal b/g 195. I'm not great with making fresh kefir mine always separates. But I was told it is still good.

Please tell me what I need to do for this to work.
Really want to cure my Type 2 diabetes. Btw I am taking Jardiance 1x per day.

Additionally, should 1000mg of Vit C NOT be taken with the 1 cup kefir? Trying to find out if it destroys the kefir probiotic.

Thanks,
Rose

Hi P. Raghavan

thanks for all the guidance here

I have a little issue to discuss. Actually I am diabetic and I started kefir around 10 days back but don't know why instead of going down my fasting readings are increased from 180 to 220 today.

I am takin half cup of milk kefir in the morning on empty stomach and half cup in the night.

please guide me if I have to do something else. I dont wanna quit kefir but condition is very bad not feeling good at all.

regards

Hello P. Raghavan,

I wanted to give an update on my experience with the probiotic capsules that you are recommending. I have been taking them (as you directed) for over 31/2 months and am still experiencing high morning readings. When I woke up this morning my reading was 221. That seems to be my average. Just to experiment the last month or so I have taken two capsules in the morning instead of one and am still not experiencing any change. Any advice would be very appreciated. Thank you!

I have been taking the Kefir for 4 weeks as you have directed and I am not seeing a change in my morning glucose readings. Could it be the Kefir grains are dormant? (I did purchase the grains from the site on Amazon that was recommended)

Also, you say in the morning the Kefir should look like yogurt. However, mine does not, it still looks like milk. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!
