Did anyone watch the Jamie Oliver programme on Channel 4 on sugar last night? If so, what did you think?
I've got mixed feelings about it because, whilst his goal is credible, his facts are a bit skewed. Yes, T2 can be very much diet and lack of exercise created, however, genetics do play a part. He only nodded towards that fact. It's obviously a very hot topic in the news at the moment, but why can't people present the full facts? He focussed on fizzy drinks and hidden sugar, but ignored carbs. Why?
OK, it's a very minor rant, but I'm fed up with people constantly telling me it's all about my diet. I'm adopted so can't prove a genetic influence, but it isn't unheard of, is it?!
...and relax... thanks for listening!
