[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 938594, member: 17713"] The thing is though is to encourage people to look at their diets /lifestyles/ exercise etc before they get ill.... No matter whether people get diabetes or heart problems or other things. My hubby was told quite strongly by a private consultant operating on his knee to lose weight.. He did.. But only by being told by a consultant. He never went to GPs until his leg was playing up. He just made excuses. He knew he was overweight but he never listened to me telling him. Something needs to be done besides getting illnesses as a whole.. Not just diabetes.. Why do tbe vast majority of humans now rely upon tablets and medicines rather than changing their diets. Sure not all diseases are down to diets... But people with coeliac and crohns etc have to adjyst their diets so why is their so much trouble with changing advice for the rest of the population? Is it that certain food really has become addictive? [/QUOTE]
