[QUOTE="Indy51, post: 516713, member: 48386"] Unfortunately that's very true. One of the things Prof Taylor emphasised in his talk was that people who decide to try the Newcastle Diet are a highly motivated subset of diabetics. I'd say the same is true for people who join forums and put in the effort to read and research for themselves. Way too many people are happy to hand their health and wellbeing over to other people without question. I'm betting most of our local libraries have lots of information too - but I wonder how many people actually bother? I had the recent experience of seeing a new GP about a minor infection - she actually said "I can give you an antibiotic if you want". I said no thanks, but I'm sure she was just reacting to the usual demand to "write me a script". And now we wonder why there are antibiotic resistant bacteria? [/QUOTE]
