Been reading about this, does it work?
I looked this up as somebody had asked on another forum. This is what I found.

The small print says this product should not be used by people with medical conditions which diabetes is one.
It makes no claim to 'cure' Type 2 diabetes. It does say:
The ingredients in Glucofort could provide small support to people with diabetes, helping their bodies manage blood sugar and cellular energy. However, there's no evidence that Glucofort can cure diabetes, replace your doctor-prescribed diabetes medication, or stop any symptoms of diabetes.

I would say BEWARE of these products, they could be dangerous for people with diabetes, save your money and invest your time and effort in establishing a sensible low carbohydrate way of eating.

I have just seen something in my local news about claims that pomegranate juice can lower blood glucose but their comparative tests did not seem to be with diabetic subjects so I would be very sceptical of this and similar claims.

Welcome to the forum @Bagpuss51

Diabetes UK do not recommend any of this type of supplement marketed towards people with diabetes, because there is not enough evidence that they are effective (or even safe) for people with diabetes.

I would steer well clear in your shoes.

I imagine it works very well for the manufacturers aiming to make money. They know some people will be desperate and buy it.

I’d avoid anything like that and save your money.
