A good read on type 1 will read type 2 later and I totally agree with this quote :-

"Captioning a plate of food with #diabetes is not helpful.

Much the same fare as in previous articles on Diabetes.
Amputations, gastric banding solution, blah blah blah,,,,,
Lifestyle causing it. sweets and fizzy drinks, obesity etc,

Now one for T1 Diabetics that is more useful:

Oh dear, Aunty Beeb has been busy today. As well as the two articles I posted at the start, I have to add the following articles that chant the same old mantra/s :

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-37567101

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-37723299

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-37584818

As well as Inside Story covering the same topix. Available on iPlayer.

One day the penny will drop, the LC message will have its day eventually. There is too much anecdotal evidence bulding up and a Credit Suisse investment report to boot so they will have to take notice soon. Sky News had a report on the Newcastle 8 hour diet today as well, so that will help offset the BBC bias hopefully.
