MORE OBAMACARE....would fix this, or WAIT a minute. This means PERSONAL responsibility for diet. NO ONE wants to take responsibility, even for their sexual trysts when they get pregnant they then want the gubmint to pay for their infanticide murder.

More than that. Excessive consumption of carbs of all kinds, plus a poor diet in general and lack of exercise. And for some, the tendency to be diabetic runs in families.

Right.

'Cause if you replaced it, calorie for calorie, with cane sugar ... and people consumed the same food products in the same quantities ...

They'd be rail thin ... not a hint of obesity.

I try to avoid high fructose corn syrup. I buy peanut butter made only from peanuts and salt, pasta sauce made from tomatoes, olive oil and spices, etc.

Corn is cheap because of tariffs placed on sugar coming into the country.

Cane sugar would naturally be cheaper if it were not for government interference.

I had high numbers as high as 210 then I stopped drinking several cans of Coca Cola a day and started cooking my own food instead eating the tv dinners. I drink a lot of water now instead of the soda and feel much better and lost weight. Take no thyroid or Type 2 meds. Doctors disappointed as I threw away the drugs and just changed the diet.

Taking vitamins D (10,00IU) and Iron have helped quite a bit. Magnesium and C and B12.

The only way I gain weight is eating bread and the only bread I can eat now is french bread freshly baked at the market because the other breads contains msg and high fructose and too many chemicals that leave me feeling ill.

When I do eat the tv dinners I pay for it with either headaches or sleepiness. Even diet drinks cause problems.
