            A good rule of thumb whenever I hear anything about what this administration does in regards to health I try to look at it through the lens of eugenics. They want to get rid of the people they consider "weak" and think that using money to help those that need it to be a waste of money. People with autism, weak immune systems, chronic illnesses, poor people, drug addicts, and pretty much anyone else they consider undesirable and less than human. Also, they consider our tax money as their personal bank account as if the country was a company and our taxes are their profits. Pretty fucked up, but it makes more sense than trying to rationalize clearly irrational behavior.

              RFK Jr's FDA chief should probably go get some potty training instead of just spewing his shit for the world to see.

                depends on how far along typ1 diabetes damages the iselt cells in the pancreas. the diet most likely wont work if you cant produce insulin anymore, especially you can get unreliable walmart reliant otc isulin. theres a slow decline insulin production as your islet beta cells get destroyed.

                one of the rare ways around it if someone is on immunosuppressants all the time from organ transplant.

                      As much i love a good trashing of politican the real quote was "Maybe we need to treat more diabetes with cooking classes, not just throwing insulin at people,"

                      Better diet really could help prevent type 2 diebetes and personally i think prevention is always better solution than treatment.

                            Hum... but your quote indeed uses "treat", I am no expert, but I feel it might be the verb form of "treatment"...

                              I guess I agree with that in certain contexts. I remember my buddy became a real nutrition expert after his diagnosis. Kind of taught us all about balancing carbs and fiber and reducing sugar, etc.

                                  People are too tired and overworked to cook. Poor people are far more likely to spend too much time commuting to work too.

                                  And their suggestion only addresses one type of diabetes. There’s a whole other type of diabetes.

                                        Aka murder, and not some other type of anything. It's just murder.

                                          That's how we prevent this, which we did not.

                                          All we have left is reaction.
