QUESTION: Hi,


It seems that I had developed type 2 diabetes in 2007. I began to take it seriously around 2011 at the point my blood sugar was around 10-12.

I have been on metformin and made significant dietary changes little or no white flour, much much less sugar.

The doctor is relatively happy with my last results a few months ago. However I cannot get my blood sugar down to the recommended level today which is between 4-5 rather than 6-7 which is where I normally seem to be.

She has been asking me to go on insulin but I am more than hesitant. This is a disease of choice so I don't choose to continue to be sick I just haven't figured out how to get entirely better with out adding on insulin.

I feel that the biggest issue is the waking blood sugar which is between 8-10 rather than 5-7.

I definitely have a fatty liver and have had multiple kidney infections in the past. So am quite concerned about these organs and their health.

I am very interested in the cider vinegar and have a few questions

- I would appreciate the recommended dose to be in teaspoons or tablespoons rather than grams please.

- If one is only taking the cider vinegar at bedtime would one need a vinegar free week?

- Would apple juice or grape juice work like the orange juice and be neutralized by the vinegar?

- How would you make this drink: mainly juice and then the vinegar? mainly water then juice and then vinegar?

I have been in touch with a Tibetan doctor and have been using Tibetan
herbs for many years so have been able to remain healthy despite my diabetic condition. I have so far no diabetic markers on/in my body thank G-d.

- I would also like to ask about rambutan: how many does one need to eat to make blood sugar changes and how often does one need to eat them?

Thank you Dr. Alba and grateful to G-d the tI found your site.

ANSWER: Hi Tammy,

Thank you for following us and sharing your concerns with us.

Please find the following answers to your queries:

-Apple cider vinegar can be taken 20 grams before meal . In other words, can be taken 2 tablespoons before meal or bedtime.

- Can you please elaborate more on the second question: (- If one is only taking the cider vinegar at bedtime would one need a vinegar free week?)

- The apple/grape juice can be used mixed with apple cider vinegar. They will help neutralize the smell and acidity of the vinegar.



- When you feel heartburn, can mix 1 tablespoon of vinegar with 1 ounce (1/8 cups) of grape/apple juice.

Then, if you want to make the juice, can mix a cup of grape/apple juice with 3 tablespoons of vinegar.

You can also prepare a mixture of 2 tablespoons of vinegar with 1 cup of warm water and 1 teaspoon of honey. If you do not like/want honey, can prepare the vinegar/water juice.

- With regards to using rambutan to reduce blood sugar levels, you can follow this link to learn the most efficient ways to use rambutan for this purpose.
