With eating raw vegan for the past two months I now feel healthy, BS has stabilized and mostly influenced by stress now, and I no longer take daily naps. It is working for me so far. Not easy in the beginning, but I am determined to avoid the recommended evening dose of Lantis

When you say low carbs - do you mean below 50 or below 150? My daily maximum for blood glucose control is about 50. 150 (which many people consider low) would be a disaster for me.
