[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2147513, member: 493719"] Great idea [USER=460354]@Debandez[/USER] i utterly fail to see how measuring the toxicity of the foods we ARE clearly allergic to, can be anything BUT beneficial. While it would be a cost.( .isn't it always. :rolleyes: ) if we weigh up the inital cost with the lifetime costs, it works out pretty cheap, AND it's the RIGHT thing to do...what right does anyone have to just write us off, without even giving us a chance to prove or attempt a way of managing our T2D that is clearly showing great promise. (source: Dr Unwins surgery, Most of the posters on here with T2D.) Given the argument WILL be it's just TOO expensive.. (today, perhaps..., but who cares what it costs us tomorrow.. Cash and Health wise :banghead: ) Wouldn't a halfway house of allowing each NEW T2D, ONE set of low end glucose meter + 50 strips...(think codefree) Then if those taking up the offer benefited, they now have an option of providing further strips for themselves AFTER seeing the efficacy of the Meters and all the impact certain foods have on them for those who take but don't follow up or use well for whatever reason, that seems a small cost to pay, to give someone the CHANCE of a more successful (and by dint , less costly interventions) future as a Type 2. Add in with the cost implication, pretty sure some accountant somewhere will be monitoring the success or not of the program and roll out.. IF we can mainly buck the trend of it being progressive, it follows many others once aware, COULD also follow in our footsteps..and surely THAT in itself could make it become the de facto tool for that all important first interventions ? Thus freeing up those who agree but are currently oppressed in giving us freely information that contradicts the outmoded guidelines, dictated at present. I like the high level 'celeb' type 2's being targeted..much easier if we have a successful role model fighting our case, i think. Keep us posted [USER=460354]@Debandez[/USER] :) [/QUOTE]
