    Do you think there is enough about Type 1 Diabetes.

    Its ok @Jaylee I'm the only other person who watched that movie. Noting to spoil. As for more inclusion of Type 1 in TV or the movies. Usually the only time I see Type1 diabetics is when AI or an assassin hacks in to their insulin pump to kill them. Not sure I want to trust any part of...

    Can T[emoji638]s Eat Honey?

    Tonic Water: Sugar or Fructose Sweetened?

    All joking aside @Skyrider if your drinking enough tonic water in your G&T to be concerned that the fructose in the tonic water may be damaging your liver (NAFLD). You should probably be more concerned about the effect the Gin is having. Not a judgment. :bag:

    Tonic Water: Sugar or Fructose Sweetened?

    Hi @Skyrider "best" as with most things it only matters how it effects you. I am sorry to tell you this but the only way to find out how it effects your blood sugar levels is through extensive research. ;) :bag:

    New here

    Hi @Jon454, The best advice I can give is keep a food diary for a couple of weeks to see how much sugar you are consuming the recommended amount is less than 9 spoonful's a day. :bookworm: This is the best way to realistically see what it is your eating on average and be able to identify...
