Sadly, type 2 diabetes which is what you are statistically getting at in this article is nearly always a symptom of lifestyle and is very preventable, whereas type 1 is not. Unfortunately few doctors are versed in lifestyle coaching, meaning they are only taught in school how to treat symptomatically.
Filling the page with warnings of amputations is a symptom of a long list of poor choices. I have met very few people that heed such warnings, especially coming from a medical community that really has no clue or follows it’s own advice.
I wish I had type 2.
How much is Lexington paying for these regular infomercials?
Any southerner who is 40 and older reading this knows the creeping unspoken thought of how scared we are that a lifetime of sweet tea, pound cake, mint julips and pecan pie will be to blame for the type 2 if we get it, and what a battle it is inside to give up those delights.
