    Hi Charles,
    Is the Dr for doctor? You will have to reduce the blood pressure and diabetes meds as the fast progress. Juice fast with lots of greens. Stable under 120 for a day and you can cut the BP meds. Space the juices out over the day and sip them.

      Hello Tom,
      Thank you very much for the advice, I’m almost through day one, and so far so good. I have had a on and off again headache for most of the day. By the way, my Doctorate is in Religious Psychology and Divinity, not MD, thanks again for your help!
