Not good! Not good at all! Any changes you have made may be moot because
you are not in contact with your Dr. and you do not test your BG. You could
be getting diabetic complications right now and you wouldn't even know it.
Also, fiber does not stay in the juice. Certainly there is proof! Have you
ever read a nutritional label. And juice isn't as filling as the whole
fruit.
