Hi, Thomas,

Thank you so much for that informative post.  I am especially interested
since I am a diabetic (for almost 30 years), have severe neuropathy in
legs and hands, as well as diabetic retinopathy.   I'm legally blind.
About 10 years ago, after receiving material from T.C.Fry I became a
fruitarian, for about 3 years.  I never felt better in my life, however,
due to family pressures, went back onto a regular diet.

This past New Year's Day I went on a vegetarian diet.  My sugar count
still goes high, between 220 and 400+, unless I continue to take
Glucophage, but I'm trying to get off all medication.

One question, Tom:     Do you have any suggestions as to what percentage
of fruit/vegetables would be good for someone in my predicament?   One of
my weaknesses now is dried fruit; my naturopathic doctor told me to get
off that, she prefers I eat fresh fruit...because of the sulphur, added
sugar, etc.  I am using a dehydrator to make some of my own snacks.

Thanks again, Tom, for that wonderful article.

Sincerely,
Marie Betz
