Hmmm. Any threads on Low-salt or no-salt diets to reverse diabetes? If it worked, at all, even a little bit, we would see it here. I haven't seen it here - has anyone?
The confusion around the difference between something causing something, and something co-existing with something (excuse all the somethings!) is a really common thing. Especially amongst journalists. Such things for headlines is the darling of journos, as we know.
If red meat caused diabetes our species would look very different indeed. It is an incredible pain and bore that we have to put up with such wrong-minded rot about diet associations with diabetes like that one. No wonder folks get really confused out there, reading this kind of stuff.
And another really common thing - is eating salt, especially in Sweden I must add! Where the salt intake study in diabetes was done, is HUGE. (Salt being a very popular effective preservative - getting through those long cold dark winters with food on your plate, and so is a big part of the food culture from as long as they could get a hold of it.) And - Sweden - is not a diabetes hot spot country - I could do my own association study with that one!
It was the food industry that helped the general population get in to its present state - these studies are nothing more than advertisements steering people in to bad habits and poor health - it's shameful!http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-4886224/Diabetes-test-40-revealed-officials.html
Where do these people get their information from? Cut out red meat and salt???? Try giving patients the correct food information, it's not difficult. Sending people for cookery lessons will not help one little bit.
Rant over, got to think of my blood pressure.
I think that the big problem is that the Power that Be cannot bring themselves to use the words "PROCESSED FOODS " should be avoided like the plague - . When it says Salt should be reduced,THAT is actually what they mean . Processed foods are unnaturally high in salt and if you reduce them you will reduce salt intake. that has NOTHING to do with using natural salt alongside REAL foods,
