The next time you buy a can of peas, read the fine print. Sugar is added to a lot of things now not to make them sicky sweet but to give the appearance that natural plant sugars are there but even more so.

I know that some people don't. I am very sorry for them, especially if they are like me, and did not have a life style that contributed to their disease. > >> Acute chronic diarrhea.

That's what the doctor who prescribed the medicine told me, too. He was wrong, at least for me. That is why he is no longer my doctor. The specialist, whose name I managed after much effort to pry out of him, told me that I probably will never need insulin. Since I am now 74, she may well be right. I hope so. I don't even want to think about insulin. donna Evleth
