[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1572115, member: 196898"] Disagree. Most people rely on the people in white coats wearing stethoscopes round their neck and their degrees hanging on the wall. If they say alternative medicine / diets are dangerous, then they will not want to do anything different. If the message is also reinforced by the Media, NICE, PHE, Tesco, and the kind nurse in the hospital, then their POV will remain unchanged by an unofficial website full of people spouting forth. I was specifically ordered not to use this website by my GP, who prefers the DUK one. Dr Google is a murderer in his eyes. But I am glad I went against the authorised. sanitized mantras. Yes I have diabetic friends who are not interested in taking steps to help themselves, so no, we will not get the message to all who should be interested. IMO this is why the NHS does not support testing for T2D - it is not just funding, but also that we will realise that their mantras don't work for us. [/QUOTE]
