if you didn't know,,the infamous sugar lobby has tremendous influence on what we eat. Unfortunately the food industry and big pharma has demonized fat and made it ok to consume carbs and sugar. Type 2 diabetes is at epidemic levels so is obesity. but it takes decades to get type 2 diabetes but what concerns me is the media that make it normal to be diabetic. Especially how they present all of the drugs that keep the A1C levels down, I guess they think its OK to be very close to death if this disease gets out of hand. They do put a very positive slant on their ads.
I also firmly believe that the American Diabetes society has NO interest in helping finding a cure but prefer to keep you on those drugs. They have a big influence on the population perception and gives Big pharma to cash in and make huge profits on a variety of drugs. including statins.
But I'm also convinced that Type 2 can be reversed and you can cure yourself...but the odds of you seeking this is against most as the powers that be are not interested in helping you. If you seek a cure it takes persistence, time and excellent knowledge.Blagoje, ducnut, silverspur and 4 others Thank this. -
I can’t get it to link. It’s long and sometimes boring, but really explains the metabolizing process of high fructose corn syrup, and the unique way it hijacks the system.
silverspur and O.Henry Thank this. -
No diet sodas, period there worse than full sugar sodas, drink water coffee or tea no sugar. Do this for at least 2 weeks, you have to get that crap out of your system to stop craving it. after that maybe an occassional zero sugar but becareful of the artifical sweetners they can be very bad aswell. Also knock off flour products such as breads.ducnut, silverspur, Chinatown and 2 others Thank this.

I get this at Cub Foods and health food stores but can't find it in truck stops.
Why do I drink soda? Because it mixes well with gin.

Rideandrepair and Chinatown Thank this. -
My belief is you can't get something for nothing. In other words, you can't get the sweet taste without the negatives like sugar has.
Rideandrepair and ducnut Thank this. -
Sucralose is garbage, for me personally it gives me a sore throat and tears up my gut. Americans have been so conditioned to eat super sweetened edible products that many find it hard to consume anything that is not overly sweetened. I got away from that about a year ago and now I find most sweetened foods to be repulsive and not enjoyable whatsoever.
I have been following Dr. Paul Saladino since the beginning of 2022 and he has put out a lot of content talking about things of this nature and strongly recommends against things like artificial sweeteners. I know that the common sayings are to "consume in moderation" and "eat a balanced diet" whatever that means, but I would submit to you to just break yourself of it because what you might to be consuming in moderation or as part of a "balanced diet" might be something that leads you to a pre-diabetic state if not a full blown diabetic state because I've seen it with countless family members and others I have known and I'm very guilty of it myself.
Fad diets and government nonsense like the food pyramid have been among the worst influences in what is recommended for human consumption.Rideandrepair, ducnut and Snow Hater Thank this. -
First, stop the diet sodas now.
If you gotta have a soda, go with those are marked ‘real sugar’.
Basically the ‘Food Pyramid’ is upside down.
If you are having gut issues, and are a milk drinker, quit the milk(for now), yogurt is ok, and cheese ok, unless you are allergic to dairy.
Stop the artificial ‘creamers’ for coffee, that ###### will kill you.
Avoid ‘soy’, and ‘high fructose corn syrup’ like it’s the plague.Rideandrepair, Gearjammin' Penguin and cuzzin it Thank this. -
Concur. My wife has severe dietary issues, and she felt much better after cutting out High Fructose Poison. That stuff is NOT good for you. Problem is, it's everywhere. Supposedly, that's because it's cheaper, yet Mexican Coke uses actual sugar. Curious.Rideandrepair Thanks this.
