Carbs will kill us all.........................
I think it is more sugar than carbs, and I’m pointing to Big Sugar.
A few decades ago, Big Sugar duked it out with Big Fat, and Sugar won. Afterwards, low-fat no-fat etc were highly sought after, while everything processed had sugar with “added” sugar.
One can have a diet of healthy fats and oils, very low or zero sugar, with moderate carbs.
I immediately went on a low-carb diet. Back then, it was mostly called the Atkins diet. Today, it's mostly called the Paleo diet. Either way, it's the same concept. Eat mostly natural foods and cut out the added sugar by virtually eliminating all processed "supermarket" foods. As well as all fast food.
20 years later, at age 60, not a trace of diabetes. I'm about 50 pounds lighter. I'm overall in much better physical shape then I was two decades ago.
