Urgent question, I need to find out where I can get Sunroot or Jeruslem Artchoke tabelts or capsules. I have been advised they will help my wife with her diabetes, with the numbness and pins and needles in her feet and fingers. Can someone please help with this information. Please email me ASAP if anyone can assist in my need for these tablets Thanks Roy

Hi Roy Jerusalem Artichoke is great for diabetics. It is ALWAYS better to eat the real thing than rely on tablets or capsules. Tablets have no 'life force' and are basically a way for the pharmaceuticals to make money so they can increase their profits and distribute dividends to shareholders. There is no money in real food for big pharma so grow your own plants. They are very easy to grow and are extremely good for you. For numbness and tingles incorporate good quality salt into the diet eg himalayan or celtic sea salt. Salt allows the electrical signals or spark of information travel throughout every cell in the body via the nervous system. The salinity and mineral component of good salts is the same as our blood. AVOID table salt - it is a chemical substitute.
