My dad just got diagnosed with type 2
diabetes. He is taking Metformin HCL
750mg. I was wondering if anyone has had
good experiences with this drug? He seems
to be doing very well. He has lost 9lb.
since Christmas. I'm sure that has helped
too.
He wants to try some natural products as
well. Is it okay to take some natural
things while on this med?
Thanks,
hamrickm

It possibly is fine for him to take
natural products, but ask the doc. Also,
beware of fraudulent products. Research
natural products at a place like
nutritionaltree (and read their buying
guide).
