I am really confused now I have to go back on Wednesday they want more blood in case I have type 1, but after reading studyform,Dr c and denzil I am more confused than ever.

Join the club G Hall these two will do it to you although both well intentioned they do leave you somewhat confused

Cheers........its not a snipe btw

Crikey dan there's loads more where that came from, lol.

We haven't done  arthritis, gout, or high blood pressure yet.

dan just do what I put on the other thread for a fortnight and you'll see what happens,mind you must forego your weekend Chinese takeout MSG aint good either.

My mother is now off painkillers for her arthritis since following starch/plant based advice though she still has her Sunday Roast and the occasional piece of fish,she had a 2nd hip op earlier in the year and I started getting her out walking regularly she's lost weight and is better than she's been since her 40s.

No bother dan.

With a bit of will power something I'm sadly lacking

Another thing that went was the hayfever used to be on 3/4 one a days every day have had none whatsoever this year.

Great, means I can live off chips.

Baron cut them up into chunky chips, par boil then dry. Spray them with Fry Light pop in the oven 200 degrees. 20 minutes later healthy chips

fat nee good dan

My mistake it's not the stuff I used to use knock yourself out,didn't realise thar stuff existed with such low fat.

Used to spray all the roast veggies should go well with Sea Salt.

Should add they cook alot quicker than white potatoes have burned a few.

Yes that's true about sweet potatoes cooking quicker.

I think the last lot I did only took 12 minutes.

Just cleared out my sister's house after she passed away,the amount of excess medication has staggered me. Her heart gave way over time,leaking valves that couldn't be operated on. Over time we have nagged her to take her meds as well as building herself up,to no avail but she would round on us for pushing her. Emptying drawers we found medication going back up to two years that filled a charity bag !! Statins/Warfarin (blood thinning) and various stuff that covered a range of ailments but we were none the wiser as it was pushed away in various cabinets while the regular weekly Nomad (set out for daily useage)from the chemist was delivered every Monday and was seen to be taken by family and carers ?? A retired pharmacist friend said the average value of this wasted medication was typically up to £2,000 and a regular occurence with old people late in life,often 1 in 3 of deaths see family taking stuff to the pharmacies but it cant be reused as storage has damaged efficacy of the medications.This doesn't take into account the discarding down toilets and bins over time .It seems the quangos responsible push for endless prescriptions for every possible ailment without taking any responsibility for managing it via pharmacies.G.P surgeries.

Sounds shocking from here treetop.

Here's two G Hall.

In the first it's the TV doctor DR Michael Mosley.

The starch based diet used by Dr J McDougall and co is the one to keep on for life.

Watch one or two of his videos on YouTube - ''Dr McDougall diabetes diet''

He's a fully qualified medical doctor licensed to practise and prescribe drugs in five states.
He reckons 11% of the patients who go to him are diabetic.

Listen very closely to all he's got to say, especially how he treats diabetic patients on medication.
If he doesn't mention it there look for it in some other of his videos. It's very important.

I am on metaformin now since last Tuesday and have kept off the sweet stuff since my blood sugar has fallen but needs to drop further.

After all the lads on meds have nothing to lose right.
