I just watched `Super size me` yesterday.
It`s disgusting that we are letting the junk food companies poison our children so they can profit.
It costs no more money to make healthy school lunches from scratch than to buy that crappe from poison-pushers.
According to a doctor on the above-mentioned movie, diabetes can take between 15~20 years off the life of a victim.
When does this become murder, or at least a crime?

I don't understand. I didn't have type 1 diabetes. then I had a kidney transplant and the steroids gave me diabetes. The docs called it type 2. But I was skinny and ate well. Do ya think there could be a type 3?

My daughter developed type1 diabetes at the age of 20 and she was extremely fit as she did ballet for 12years. She also ate well. There is a lot of suspicion that these inoculations & anti-biotics which they give us at birth and later adversely affect us down the road.
Along with of course our diet which is more and more being manipulated by genetically modified foods (thank you Montsanto)...it will only get worse
