[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 1265866, member: 209498"] In a way I did like the program in that it has raised the issue of diabetes as a huge problem for the population and the NHS both in medical and financial terms. I hope that people who have been diagnosed as pre-diabetic or T2, or those who recognise that they are at risk, will look into ways in which they can avoid this condition. Unfortunately the program didn't offer any suggestions as to how that could be done. The message was that complications are inevitable. Except through bariatric surgery. Very little was said about the effects of processed and junk food and sugary drinks. The Government has avoided taking on the food industry on this issue. Too much profit involved. The only person who it was said had reduced his weight and got his blood sugars under control, the ex-cricketer, was still facing kidney failure and dialysis. I would like to have heard more about him. Are kidney problems inevitable even if we control our condition? [/QUOTE]
