I agree with you.
Now the trap has been set.
So what do you think causes these issues?
let me guess genetic inheritance.
WRONG.
but tell me, your high horse argument.
CANCER is a self defense mechanism of the body.
What is it fighting wise guy?
ohh, and I am totally against regulation, reread my posts.
Corn subsidies should also be stopped though. its only fair.
I agree with you.

No BBalazs, I think we agree more than we disagree. What do I think might be causing an increase in diabetes in children is the question that you are asking me????
Well for one thing, as I mentioned in a previous thread - the definition of diabetes was changed in 1998. The fasting blood sugar level (AC1) at which a person would be officially diagnosed as having diabetes was dropped almost 1 full point from 7.8 to 7.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
So the question I have is - is the increase in childhood diabetes really an increase or is it an artifact of this change in definition?

I agree with almost everything you said (except for the part about diabetes being reversed)
I think when you talk about diabetes being "reversed", you are referring to the differences in blood sugar control. You can temporarily reverse the need for medical by controlling nutrient intake and by increasing metabolic uptake (exercise) but diabetes is a progressive disease and ultimately the need to take medication will return, if you live long enough. However, there is a decided advantage to putting off the inevitable for as long as you can.
We agree that sugar should NOT be regulated.
Do you agree that this opinion piece by this researcher is simply part of marketing campaign to "denormalize" fat people and set them up for the same type of financial rape, humiliation etc to which smokers are currently treated.
