People are smart, and when they know they can make great strides to better health through sensible eating and lifestyle changes, it has to be the most preferred approach considering the alternatives.

Im actually surprised at this finding. Advertising and others sources continue to push the " pop a pill" or gastric surgery as the only reasonable options. Glad my gut was right-- pick lifestyle changes as first line of defense. |
I remember MIL deciding with her DH that they could just inject more insulin and still make/eat their homemade cakes, pies and jellies.... :daze:
|
I think people don't get good support from health authorities. The change within three days of true low carb would probably get most people hooked but they are advised anything but.
|
Unfortunately health authorities won't look past the prescriptions. Maybe they don't dare go against the drug companies out of fear of loosing all of the perks and $$.
When DH was given a prescription for statins, I gave him several articles showing him how bad it was. But what do I know, I'm not a doctor. |
ROFL
Just called pediatricians office and while on hold made to listen to the sales spiel, including offering just one option for the overweight: bariatric surgery , it is safe and effective. Guess they forgot about the 1-2 percent that die after the surgery. |
I’m shocked! I was told patients wouldn’t do that!
