What our patients are saying...

The medicine that I’m on has decreased my A1C tremendously. The process has been very smooth; I like that it doesn’t take up a whole lot of time and the time that I do put into the program is very beneficial to me and my family. I’ve learned a lot since I’ve joined this trial. It’s been beneficial and changed my life for the better.

Bloodwork, testing--everything was explained to me. They always supply all the testing kits. They always ask me about how I’m doing. Ever since I’ve been with TVCR, it has benefitted me a lot. The main benefit I’ve had is the lowering of my blood sugar count. Previously I was in the 130s-140s, now I’m down to about 100s-110s which shows a great improvement. If somebody asked me to be with the research, I think I’d tell them to do so, for the good of humanity.
