For type 2 diabetes, if we would cut out refined sugar and flours, and add more fiber to our diets, our chances of getting it would be greatly reduced.

As well as add a lot of good old-fashioned red meat, butter, eggs & bacon. In fact, if that was our usual diet (with a daily mixed green salad thrown in), we might eradicate Type-2 diabetes. But everyone is so anti-meat, you won't hear this from many quarters.

LOL! So...you trade diabetes 2 for high levels of chorlesterol...and die of a heart attack or stroke instead.

add to that, if you already have it ( as I do ) lose weight and get active again.....this is far more important than anything else you do..mine gets more under control with every pound I lose. My goal is to be off the drugs in another 2 years..

What about Atkins?

it is a fat friendly, marbled red meat lovin’ diet.
I’m on it and doing fine weight loss wise—i’m not diabetic but the way things are going with foods these days we are all vulnerable

I think the BLAME is the HF CORN SYRUP
It is in almost everything and I mean everything
