[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2007945, member: 493719"] in the sense of fairness [USER=499223]@Listlad[/USER] i too am slightly losing sight of your point. i thought it was SHOULD you restrict carbs to your kids. adults must make their own minds up, but the example you place of superb athletes probably doesn't apply in any sort of health way to joe public slobbing out on the sofa eating takeaways and supping beer..:hilarious:(yep, guilty as charged :sorry:) i wasn't diagnosed until 59..and it's as we age that the impact for T2D, really appears. So for me that's a yes to the original question of should you restrict carbs..(but each of us is different) restrict as [USER=488270]@SlimLizzy[/USER] suggests..yes...ban..NO. BUT do be aware that it creeps up on us when we eat the unrestricted carbs that so many do nowadays (as i mentioned above) if it was the microwave causing cancer, i doubt many would accept that it IS a safe level in the kitchen, on an everyday basis if it meant that the accumulations quadrupled the chances of your kids getting cancer (god forbid) I think the same with carbs. We are all on here for the reason of Diabetes..at whatever stage we are at or what type we have. if many find that a high carb diet impacted on them, i doubt the assertion of higher carbs would go unchallenged. If it is that the lower carbs benefitted people then i think in a auditorium full of those professing the benefits and showing PROOF, as you seem to do (well done btw) i doubt the message of higher barbs will ever get through, when it's that VERY principal many blame for their current state. we all want wants best for our kids. not sure a sugar laden carb fest IS the best way. and lets be honest ...when we talk carbs there IS two types. the really healthy type which all low carbers eat ..and this [IMG]http://gonebraskacity.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/mcdonalds-4-690x375.png[/IMG] ad nauseaum on EVERY high street, filed with schoolkids 'topping' up [/QUOTE]
