The thing about type 2 diabetes is that fat gets in your muscle cells and prevents the insulin from unlocking the key to get in. Read Neal Barnard’s Reversing diabetes. There are plenty of people who have reversed this disease. Check out John McDougall on youtube and open your mind a little.
As I stated earlier, my mother was diabetic. She ultimately died from eating too many carbs. I'm well-versed with the disease, what exacerbates it, etc.

I admit I get your vegan gurus mixed up. Colin Campbell is the one who thinks OLIVE OIL is harmful, right? McDougall is the nut who throws fits when people don't buy into his schtick, and who claims Steve Jobs actually had pancreatic cancer for thirty years, but lived as long as he did because he was a vegan.
I've seen you complaining elsewhere on FR about the "hostility" you encounter when folks don't believe what you're pushing. With all due respect to you, RM, this is a signal that you're edging into fanaticism. I direct you to post #65, which describes food fetish evangelists better than I can. (courtesy ping to Johnny).
