[QUOTE="sdgray22, post: 348632, member: 40547"] I think I can pinpoint exactly what I did to cause my diabetes type 2. Over a couple of years I got addicted to a tropical fruit juice, obviously full of sugar I could drink easily a couple of full glasses every day. A 2 litre bottle lasted no time. Over 30 years I probably ate too much chocolate anyway but it was definitely the fruit juice that tipped the scales and my body obviously could not cope with it. It did not occur to me nor was I ever told by a health worker that too much sugary juice was bad for you. In fact I think I actually thought it was better than pop because it was fruit juice I certainly did not think it could hurt me. Why are there not more health warnings in big letters sayingt do not drink sugary drinks. Just for example a mother I know feeds her children sunny d by the glassfull because it is healthy its from fruit!!! Is this a likely scenario or am I completely wrong about what I think caused this?
