[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1599315, member: 408573"] Sorry for the misunderstanding, I meant that there are carbs in veggies so few, if any, would be carb free. Which leads me back to a point I made earlier in that it is the sheer amount of carbs in the western diet that I beleive has reached toxic or 'poisonous' levels that is the problem. Another thought had occurred to me. My paternal grandmother was an alcoholic. My older sister was an alcoholic but I am not. Was my sister's alcoholism genetic? Or did she have a genetic predisposition to becoming addicted to booze or any other substance? No other close family member has this addiction but most of them enjoy a drink. I have been teetotal for over twenty five years but let's say for argument that I carried on drinking would I have the same risk? We know that alcohol is a toxin, we even used to say 'What's your poison?' years ago when offering drinks... [/QUOTE]
