Any comments..
3 Tbsp (45 mL) sugar
1 Tbsp (15 mL) cornstarch
2 ½ Tbsp (37 mL) sugar
A simple blood sugar reading with a meter taken before having this dessert and an hour after would have shown the spike
They should have just recommended having unsweetened blue berries in place of this high sugar and inflammatory dish
Just exposes the vested interest
One Dr almost scolded me when I told him m Hba1c is 5.2 sometime back. He says it should be around 6. And Metformin is a wrong drug for me being a lean type. The right drug is dpp4.
I had to tell him that it was rxed by my endo. He had to keep quiet
Diabetes is such a dreaded disorder that we will not die easily like a heart attack but stay alive and be a milch cow for many
Hidden
what is logic for lean person to be on DPP4??
Obese - insulin resistant - also needs weight loss = metformin
Lean = insulin deficiency = also needs weight gain = dpp4 or SU
All outdated thinking
I had to tell this Dr that I had central obesity which has now come down
He still appeared sceptical
Said that he had learning under a renowned endo in mumbai (this is in CG.. during my FW)
So he would Rx a dpp4 and ensure Hba1c of 6.
Keep at this level so that complications would set in and the earnings increases
A diabetic pt is like an insurance policy sold to a customer by an agent
The agent will keep getting commission will the insurance premium is being paid
But is it fact that all are such money minded?? is situation really that bad??
No
Some are really genuine
The endo I consulted in genuine
Starts with metformin and steps up very slowly
But the issue is the faulty learnings
Here drs blindly follow the ADA and other such organizations
And these organizations are heavly influenced
But then guess they are doctors....and have some common logic....why don't they apply the same??? are they so blind??
Yar there is no issues if they earn money.... but earning money at the cost of patients life is criminal....
Is cheese good for diabetics
Alovera is good for diabetics
What is diabetes?
