Hi there Kimberly,

I'm sorry to hear this. It was quite vindictive of the Biden admin to roll back Trump's E.O. on this one. Or would inhumane be a better word?

Anyways, I just wanted to add for you an additional plant you might want to check out that could help manage your hubby's blood sugar levels: Bitter Melon.

Baker Creek usually carries a few varieties, and it can be an easy plant to grow- give it a trellis or a fence to grow on and away it will go! In addition to the fruit, you can make a tea from its leaves (which are always plentiful while its growing) which I believe is also supposed to have a mild insulin like effect.

I grew the plants here in upstate NY about 2 seasons ago- from late august till frost in late october, I got a steady supply of fruits. You can tincture the fruits as well.
