I know that a sugar tax, a tax on cigarettes and so on should assuage that concern, however do monies from such taxes go back into health costs ? And is not the Government accruing money from such taxes as well as alleged inducements from lobbyists of Big Food, Big Tobacco and Big Pharmacy?And Dietitian's Association in UK, Oz, South Africa and elsewhere have been sponsored by at least two of the above to allegedly continue to push 'big carb' (and suppress low-carb). . Dietary miscreants have few to discourage them which is why those who watch their diabetes management, their diets whatever they are and do their best have the sometimes unsavoury task of keeping up the best example in the face of such gluttony, self-neglect and excess!!And why I query the GP who keeps writing out scripts, sight unseen, for such people - which action is likely to worsen inappropriate food intake, worsen health and fill Big Food and Big Pharma's pockets. ? and at who's expense??</blockquote>
