    Is It Time to Treat Sugar Like Smoking?

    Nanny state telling us what we can and can't go. I am responsible for my 12 yr olds sugar intake but education in schools would be the best place to hit. I'm an ex smoker, gave up 15 yr ago. My choice if I want to though, the passive argument is fair but there is so much medical science TV news...

I have a carer and she hides food from me so it can be hard to have something. I've heard other members having a coffee with heavy cream which fills you up. For me, I've...

    See, I m so glad this question / response came in. What fats? What fats would you have with a chicken breast stir fry? As a back drop to anything I right and anything you're kind enough to reply with, I'm working backwards here and getting stern opposition from the NHS. I missed a step with...

    B12 And Metformin

    Do you mean use apple cider vinegar as a topical or taken orally. I use it already to bathe and soak my feet in to soften my toenails as when I cut them I nick the flesh quite often and then can't stop the bleed because of aspirin I take. Final question I promise, I know we've gone way off...

    Yes I agree with all you say, actually I am very dominant but as subtle as I can be in not taking no or ' we'll see' as acceptable.
