Would you treat an alcoholic with more booze, or a drug addict with more heroin ? Starchy carbs, are poison to all diabetics. Recommending a high carb diet to a diabetic is madness. But greed and stupidity has usurped common sense, and millions of diabetics have been sent to an early and often painful grave. I believe the tide is turning, all over the world people are learning a diet based on sugar and starch is not the way to stay healthy.
In my life I have seen some amazing changes. I have witnessed the end of communism in Russia and the Berlin Wall destroyed. I have seen a Black Man become the leader of South Africa, I have seen a Black Man become President of the US. Don't think we cannot bring about a change in the dietary information that has brought about the epidemics of obesity, and it's often linked type two diabetes. Big pharma and multinational food outfits have spent $billions promoting drugs that don't work and food that makes people ill, they will spend more, but they will lose. If history has taught me one thing, it is good always overcomes evil. It just takes time, we have the time, and we must spread the word at every opportunity.
Think about this, how often does an ordinary man or woman have a chance to save a fellow human being from blindness, limb amputation and kidney failure? By our posting on blogs and forums and spreading the word this is what we are achieving. We are winning and we must keep on working to end the greed and stupidity that has been the downfall of so many.

Couldn't agree more and the more of us to spread the word the better.

ReplyDeleteSugar IS a "feel good drug" and we are often told how it fires the same
responses as other addictive drugs in the bran. BUT just like those drugs, it is
a transient effect and will not sustain you in the long-term ..meantime it is
destroying your health.
With thanks to FrankG at Diet Doctor Blog

ReplyDeleteI hope all this good news encourages the HCP's who have been giving patients this information via nods and winks to speak out.
ReplyDeleteDuk, NHS and similar bodies will be the only ones believing their own propaganda soon.

I like your statement 'good always overcomes evil. It just takes time, we have the time, and we must spread the word at every opportunity.'
ReplyDeleteI think there are more foot soldiers who are very willing to spread the word on how we can stay healthy, they are called Bloggers.
