[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 2249781, member: 256617"] I always find this conversation fascinating, as in the UK there is an official NHS code for Diabetes in Remission; so whilst it is ok to have a view as to what good control is, ultimately a British health establishment authorised to do so can grant a legal status of Diabetes in Remission. Obviously many do not feel comfortable with this as it always is opinionated down to an individual level, whereas something like cancer in remission does not appear to have similar nuances. I have an hypothesis that the current generation and perhaps mine have been "weakened" by the insulin / glucose load and pufa based oils. I remember reading a review of the average fasting glucose in Nigeria rising over time (I think this has happened everywhere). I further believe years of use of non-clean carbs / sugars "breaks" our systems, which means "clean" whole starches are also a problem for our systems; I honestly believe that if the metabolically challenged were eating whole foods from birth, even including starchy foods - minus the foods of the trifecta (seed oils, flour and sugar), diabetes incidence would be lower, and other conditions. For some reason we think one of the trifecta which causes the most amount of hospital dental procedures for children aged 5 to 9 for tooth extraction, magically should be continued into adult hood to oxidise the bad fats.
