FAQs
Can I take these if I have diabetes?
If you have diabetes or take medicine to lower your blood sugar, speak to your GP or diabetes team before taking any new supplement, as some may affect your blood sugar levels.
How can I find out my blood sugar levels?
Your GP can arrange a simple blood test. If you’re aged 40 to 74 in England, the free NHS Health Check also looks at your risk of type 2 diabetes.
