BUT

none reduce risk

none reduce adverse effects

After 75yrs of DiabetesUK we see increasing incidence of Diabetes.

Is the information DiabetesUK provides contributing to this?

Are DiabetesUK unwittingly

Promoting diabetes incidence? Maintaining drug dependence?

Prostate and Breast cancers rates

Compare Diabetes incidence rates with

Perhaps similar rates of increase indicate linked causes ?

ButThere is evidence virus infection in the development of Type I diabetes

Dark ChocolateImproves Insulin Sensitivity/Resistance and Blood Pressure

The flavanols and procyanidins in DARK chocolate but NOT WHITE chocolateare associated with the observed health effects.The idea Diabetes can safely eat any sweet chocolate irrespective of cacoa content is misleading. 4 squares of 75% Strong Dark chocolate have 11g total carb, and 5g of dietary fiber.

My Lowcarb Dietary Program in English : Doktor Dahlqvists blogg

You will learn A low carbohydrate diet is perfect for people with type 2 diabetes because blood sugar is stabilised and variations limited.

Please note that if you are on medication for your diabetes the change should be made gradually, in order to avoid low blood sugar, checking blood sugar levels and reducing medication accordingly. It is recommended that you do this in consultation with your doctor or nurse.

We need to work more on PREVENTION?DiabetesUK Roadshows provide no information about practical steps people could take to reduce risk factors

Why don't Diabetes Roadshows tell people thatVitamin D supplementation reduces insulin resistanceVitamin D level forReduced Insulin Resistance is 120 nmol/l?

Vitamin D supplementation reduces insulin resistance

Diabetes causes Diabetic neuropathy

Insulin Resistance Best Predictor of Diabetic Nephropathy

Hypovitaminosis D is associated with insulin resistance and cell dysfunction

Melanin protects skin from UVB

Black & brown skins make less vitamin d in sun

Darker skin colour = Higher UVB protection Lower vitamin D = Higher Risk of Diabetes.

Vitamin D Deficiency and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease

Low vitamin D associated with higher risk of a fatal CVD event, particularly cerebrovascular death.

You can't alter genetic risk factors

But you may tell people Reduced refined carbohydrate intakeCorrected Vitamin D3 deficiency statusIncreased exerciseare all associated with lower Diabetes incidence.

Regular Screening for everyone in the UK Diabetes Cancer Heart diseaseand every other potential chronic illness would be prohibitively expensive.

Raising 25(OH)D status of everyone in the UK to the level associated with least chronic disease incidence costs 10 per person per year.

Vitamin D Deficiency Prevalent in

Children With Chronic Kidney Disease

Vitamin D deficiency& insufficiency are highly prevalent in Chronic kidney disease. Low 25D levels affect mortality independently of vascular calcification and stiffness, 25(OH)D influences survival in CKD patients.

We should correct vitamin d insufficiency.

In this video Robert Lustig explains why fructose metabolism leads to weight gain.

Sugar the Bitter Truth You Tube Video Allow 60 minutes some of the detail of fructose metabolism is quite detailed and complex but if you sitick with it it becomes clearer in the end.

Does excessive fructose intake cause type 2 diabetes?

Sugar and HFCS main source of fructose.Fructose sales match diabetes increase.

Fructose raises uric acid

Uric acid predicts Diabetes

Environment and genes act affect individual response to fructose.

In previous generations large amount of fructose only available seasonally when vitamin D status was high.

When glucose is poison, it's better to eat fat.

Is DiabetesUK simply promoting diabetes as a lifestyle choice?

Is DiabetesUK actually trying to reduce Diabetes incidence?

Where is DiabetesUK :

a) applying low carbohydrate knowledge?

b) making Vitamin D3 / Diabetes research available?

c) warning of the fructose /Diabetes link?
