I have been intermittent fasting for the last two years to control my A1C, which has been very hard to keep within the normal range. I wear a Freestyle Libre periodically, which helps me monitor what I eat. My problem is keeping a healthy weight while keeping my A1C low. Fasting and eating a low-carb diet cause weight loss, so am I missing key vitamins in my diet that would help my thyroid and liver function better?
For several years, I have been taking Vitamin D3/K2, magnesium, cinnamon tablets, apple cider vinegar tabs, Berberine, B12, and occasionally a multivitamin. Should I take the Berberine more often with every meal and exercise after every meal? Your suggestions would be appreciated. I lift weights almost every night to help lower free-floating sugar in my bloodstream, and it has dropped my A1C from 6. The fasting has improved my health.
