Using What I Publish

Plain terms: I'm not a doctor, not a nutritionist, not a medical professional of any kind. What I publish is observational data — what my Contour Next One glucometer showed during a 30-day test period, logged by a 51-year-old small business owner in Atlanta who got a bad A1C result and decided to pay attention. If you're considering any change to how you're managing blood sugar, talk to your doctor first. This site is a supplement testing log, not medical guidance.

My Testing Approach

Thirty days minimum. One supplement at a time, at the full label dose. Fasting glucose every morning before coffee — the pre-coffee timing matters because it isolates the baseline without meal interference. Post-meal readings two hours after dinner. Everything goes into a spreadsheet with date, time, reading, supplement, and day of cycle. I publish what the data showed — including the three products where the numbers didn't move. Products I couldn't run for a full thirty days don't get reviewed. Products that were disappointing get reviewed honestly.

How I Make Money

Some links here are affiliate links — I earn a commission when you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. The commission doesn't shape which products get tested or what the review says. If a supplement moves the meter, that's in the review. If it doesn't, that's in the review too. The three products that didn't move the meter: reviewed and on the site.
