This subject crossed my mind recently as I wondered what I’d eat if I ever had an extended stay in hospital. I reckon I’d have to go on hunger strike. Even the stuff that I could pick the bones out of will doubtless have been cooked in seed oils.
Really though, the NHS is never going to offer a diabetic menu, simply because it would be an admission that their current dietary advice for diabetics is a work of fiction. They assert that we should eat exactly the same as everyone else - a “balanced” healthy diet based on grains and starch.
Offering an alternative on a hospital menu would open the flood gates for lawsuits from everyone who’s had their feet amputated. Not gonna happen. I’ll just be getting visitors to smuggle in blocks of grass-fed butter
