With Friends like this… Big Food & Big Pharma
I look at McDonald’s fries now and I know that……….they’re not *really* fries. Sadly they contain harmful ingredients and perhaps even more than what we know those to be… breaks my heart. The “food” we see in front of us? It is just “food-like products”….all sick, sick lies. I am sad.

Paula Deen and Diabetes
I knew it was coming; I gritted my teeth for as long as I could… Paula Deen is a diabetic … shocker! She’s just like I was… an obese, carb eating machine. The surprise is that it took this long for her to be diagnosed. Who knows, she may have actually been diabetic years ago…

Diabetes Fundraising over Education?
Please bear with me during the first part of this post… please? … I am in an ill mood! “Why?”, you ask. November is ‘diabetes awareness month’. Seemingly every literate person on the planet is ‘aware’ of diabetes. It’s in the news, it’s on commercials… how can anyone NOT be aware of diabetes??? This is

An article was published yesterday and I felt compelled to comment. The title of the post, “Evolutionary Conservation of Fat Metabolism Pathways“.

ADA, “What Diabetes Looks Like?”
The picture below is the twitter page “bio” for THE American Diabetes Association. Just a quick comment before we move on to the “meat” of the post. (The ADA dislikes meat, they recommend only 5 oz per day. ) The ADA says, “… leading the fight to stop diabetes and all of it’s deadly consequences.”

Financial Disclosure for Diabetes Advisors? – Nascar Jacket Style?
Update: Since I originally wrote this post much has been made about the ‘money connections’ with members of the government. the medical industry should wear nascar-style jackets. government officials should wear nascar-style jackets. A suggestion was made that people in government should wear uniforms like Nascar drivers showing who is ‘sponsoring’ them. Personally I agree.

I placed the date in the title for a reason…. I do not have high hopes for a change in the American Ass. of Diabetes Educators (AADE). In case I am right, I want to be able to use the same title next year… :( Why am I so negative about the outlook? Answer: NUMEROUS studies

ADA Minion’s Diabetes Myths
I am an easy going guy… I usually do not let things get to me. HOWEVER, since being diagnosed with Diabetes and seeing what a low carb food pyramid can do … I really get angry when someone promotes a high carb meal plan as being the preferred diabetic diet. I REALLY get fired up
