    First off cut out the soda completely. As for your other problems they may be hereditary, and medication can help. Check with your Doctor
    Good luck

    maybe it’s heredity, this is something that you can’t avoid even if you try
    my suggestion is continue living the healthy life style you have and check with the docror regularly to check for your blood pressure, cholestrol and such..
    also try exercising because it’s very useful for generating new blood and have good circulation
    goodluck, i think you’ll be fine

    Flax seed oil is good for both Cholesterol and High blood bressure…CoQ10 is good for both Circulation…Red Yest rice with CoQ10 is really good if you take this product you should have the CoQ10 with it becase it take the CoQ10 out of your system and by taking it with it will replenish it…Lecithin is a fat emulsifier is lowers both as well…If you have never cleansed the body, you should it take all the toxins out of the body…Meats you should only eatbroild white fish, turkey, or chicken stay away from all other no fried..Fasting is good Natural juices not in jars.this will help detoxify the body.. need more info let me know….Stay away from the Diet Coke just because it says Diet it’s still not healthy at all…If anything Diet Rite it better the coke???

    The number of people being diagnosed with adult-onset (type 2) diabetes has grown to about 150 million people worldwide, with more than 17 million in the United States. People with diabetes have high blood sugar levels because their cells don’t respond to insulin, the hormone that signals when glucose (the form sugar takes in the blood) needs to be stored. Over time, the extra glucose in the blood damages tissues.

    Eating a high-fiber, low-sugar diet and exercising are important ways to keep blood glucose levels normal. Oral medications are also often used to reduce blood glucose levels, and in some cases insulin injections are necessary. Nutritionally oriented healthcare providers frequently recommend minerals such as chromium and magnesium. Some herbs such as gymnema and fenugreek have been found to have blood glucose–lowering effects.

    Cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) is an aromatic herb with sweet and warming qualities. Its history as a medicinal herb goes back centuries in India and other parts of Asia, but it is better known in the Western world as a culinary spice. Animal studies and preliminary studies in humans have suggested that cinnamon has blood glucose–lowering effects that could help people with type 2 diabetes.

    In the latest study, published in the European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 65 people with diabetes being treated only with diet or oral medications (not insulin) were given either a cinnamon extract (equivalent to 3 grams of cinnamon per day) or a placebo for four months.

    Fasting blood glucose levels (measured after eight or more hours without eating or drinking) dropped 10% in those who used the cinnamon, but did not change in the placebo group. Blood glucose levels decreased the most in those who had the highest levels at the beginning of the study.

    “More and more people are being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and many of them want to avoid oral medications and especially insulin injections,” said Linda Dacey, MD, who practices internal medicine. “Although the findings from this study are encouraging, for now it seems wise to wait until future research clarifies whether cinnamon works well enough to be used as a first-line treatment, along with diet and exercise, or whether it should be used in conjunction with oral medications.”

    In the meantime, cinnamon is a safe and inexpensive addition to a program designed to help manage high blood sugar from diabetes.
