It looks good if you want to lighten the load in your 'wallet'.  Lots of empty promises.

I have seen similar ads for "miracle cures" before and feel sorry for people that fall into the trap of paying for a nonsense thing like this.  There should be a way to shut this sort of thing down.

LOL, of course. Is that the price for foreign orders too? Still wouldn't buy it but just curious... We all know the best way to control our diabetes is LC/HF &... Keto if desired.

I well remember right after I got my diabetes diagnoses, searching around the internet for "cures."  Apple cider vinegar, cinnamon, essential oils, etc.  Being human, my first thought was "maybe these could work!"  Fortunately, I also have a good deal of common sense. 

The old saying, "If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is," applies to these quack remedies.
