[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 353911, member: 21149"] Hi Hanadr. You're right. There's an awful lot of bad science around supported by ignorance and commercial interests. It drives me nuts this advice to 'keep the fat and salt low' given to diabetics (and everyone). The salt thing at the level we now have is only needed i.e. reduce it, to protect the heart once the damage has been done thru excess carbs. I think people now assume that what we eat called 'fat' is what causes the body to store 'fat' i.e. the same word. Whilst it does contribute, the carbs escape attention. I learnt a long time ago in business that Group-think is a very dangerous thing and many health professionals have it in spades. [/QUOTE]
