Do you get your water through a filter? Like a PUR filter or a reverse-osmosis filter? They usually take out arsenic.
While it may be true that there is a relationship between arsenic and type 2 diabetes, the whole refined carbs/sugars issue is a much bigger one than the arsenic, I believe.
My type 2 diabetes was not the result of overeating, or a genetic disposition, or consuming a boatload of carbs.
Thanks to the government (from whom too many ignorant people want their healthcare), my diabetes is the result of Agent Orange exposure in ‘Nam. It’s only ONE symptom of Agent Orange exposure . . . . . . . along with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), cystic fibrosis, fibromyalgia, muscular dystrophy and a host of other delightful diseases.
Despite many “wise and knowledgeable folks who make stqatements about overeating and obesity, those aren’t the only ways people get Type II Diabetes.
Sometimes, the government REALLY is . . . “here to HELP you!”
/sarc (last line only)
That's a symptom of diabetes called polydipsia. How well is your blood sugar controlled?
