Diet soda, or any soda, king of the junk food genre. What a pure waste of money. All of it, empty

New study in Nature today relating how artificial sweeteners cause glucose
intolerance AKA "pre"-diabetes.

Artificial sweeteners are just poison. Train yourself to avoid them or
lose a foot, your vision, and eventually your life.

I am really sick of hearing the "lose a foot" thing. That's just nasty.

But all too real of a consequence. Don't fool yourself into thinking it
doesn't happen.

Nothing nasty about the truth and consequence of poorly controlled diabetes.

My sister's friend has been diabetic for decades (no idea if it's type
1 or 2) and has diabetic sores that don't heal. Gangrene is an issue,
so she's considering amputation below the knee as a prophylactic
measure because she's sick and tired of dealing with the sores and
pain. The thought of voluntary amputation totally grosses me out.

Truth and consequences may perhaps be foreign concepts to the bove. She
claimed to have been in hospital for a while and then recuperating at
home unable even to use a computer as a result of what started as a very
minor foot wound. She guzzles diet soda by the gallon, insisting there
are no consequences, though she has been pointed toward the research
that shows the connection to metabolic disorders like diabetes.

One might have expected that Julie's brush with a serious infection
resulting from a minor injury might have been a clue for her.

http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/statistics/

Amputations: In 2010, about 73,000 non-traumatic lower-limb amputations
were performed in adults aged 20 years or older with diagnosed diabetes.
About 60% of non-traumatic lower-limb amputations among people aged 20
years or older occur in people with diagnosed diabetes.

http://www.amputee-coalition.org/fac...ats_cause.html

Limb Loss Statistics

Of persons with diabetes who have a lower extremity amputation, up to
55% will require amputation of the second leg within 2-3 years"

My oldest brother had his leg amputated just below the knee because the
sores did develop gangrene. :-(

I'm so sorry to hear that, I know it's a big issue. In fact, not too
many years ago Stanford advertised on the radio recruiting people who
had sores on their feet that didn't heal for a study.
