I have a friend (who is 72) and has type 2 diabetes, his doctor has him on pills to control his sugar.  Needless to say he wants to get off the pills, here's an experiment we've been working on for over a month now.
During the day his sugar is within the 5-6 range, however in the morning it's in the 8-9 range for some reason.
He has been taking some alfalfa (water soluble vitamins) and sodium bicarbonate with meals.  However, for the past month he has made a small change, instead of taking the sodium bicarbonate at supper time, he takes them just before going to bed.  In the morning his sugar is in the 5-6 range which is normal.
As for the apple cider, we have both tried it but our bodies couldn't take it and had to stop.

My 2 cents worth.

confirms what Todd says about some other people. It is very disheartening on waking in the morning to find that having been *good* the previous day and avoiding all carbs to find elevated readings.
I've been tempted to try Todd's wine trick to see if it would help me but as I don't touch alcohol I have had to desist.

The vinegar: I remember reading, years ago, a book by, I think his name was Dr. Jarvis, about the benefits of drinking Apple Cider Vinegar.
