I got my first issue of Diabetic Living magazine today and there’s an advertisement for a product called Almased, supposed to help people with diabetes with weight loss. Has anybody heard of this or ever used anything like this? Or is it just a waste of money?
Hmmm…interesting - but I’m always skeptical.
Here’s their web site - http://www.almased.com/ and here’s the ingredients/nutritional info - http://www.almased.com/nutritionalfacts.cfm. Seems a bit high in carbs and sugars to me, and the issue of soy has never been totally settled - both for diabetics and those with diabetes and hypothyroid. It affects some, not others.
I need to read more about it. Anyone else out there with more knowledge?
I saw the same ad in Diabetic Living and thought Snake Oil! I guess it just sounded too good to be true.
