[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 2063287"] [USER=501623]@Cocosilk[/USER] your comment about "normal" diet and using the Mediterranean diet as the common example, made me Google "diabetes by country". I found this interesting list ( [URL]https://www.indexmundi.com/facts/indicators/SH.STA.DIAB.ZS/rankings[/URL]). This part of the list interested me [ATTACH=full]33274[/ATTACH] If you were to ask me which countries I thought of having a Mediterranean diet, I would include France, Italy and Greece.
