Any amount of sugar begets more sugar. It's just food, food, food all the time, like an itch.<br /><br />The default assumption here is that there is a lack of will power or some psychological issue. You would be surprised how reducing insulin can turn that kind of food behavior around. It is dramatic.<br /><br />Cutting refined sugars out of the diet, I can walk past cake and not care. If I'm eating lots of refined carbs though, I will attempt to swan dive into the icing.<br /><br />The sad thing is not that the woman ate the hot dog, but that nothing appears to have been done to try to find the root cause. <br /><br />Granted I never did anything like that, so maybe there is an underlying psychological issue, but she is also very likely IR in addition to any mental illness.<br /><br />I don't think insulin resistance is well addressed with the current medical system. The comments here pretty much prove that point.<br /><br />MMedical Mojavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14445140579589340514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3202241003290273966.post-27408945707648151862011-03-26T15:39:42.665-07:002011-03-26T15:39:42.665-07:00I just found your blog - am an Addison's patie...I just found your blog - am an Addison's patient and have my own "doctor" horror stories, but I'm with you on this one! A patient who walks in to an appointment with a hot dog in her PURSE is fairly demented. What about the other patients who want to vomit at the smell of a hot dog? Sounds like she needs negative attention or maybe you were on Candid Camera?? Maybe you should've told her the Hot Dog condiments were down the hall at the bottom of the trash can, under the vomit.Lana C.http://www.findnglana.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3202241003290273966.post-51089695405390412192011-03-26T10:32:42.511-07:002011-03-26T10:32:42.511-07:00I think there's a very obvious difference betw...I think there's a very obvious difference between what the clinic patient did, and a diabetic needing a piece of hard candy....<br /><br />That said, I can't help but feel pity for the woman. I hope I'm wrong, but that seems indicative of a seriously unhealthy relationship with food, and one that probably won't change just from a conversation about diet (and consequences) with her doctor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3202241003290273966.post-31292927403742023972011-03-25T14:48:23.964-07:002011-03-25T14:48:23.964-07:00As a diabetic, I wonder if you'd relax the rul...As a diabetic, I wonder if you'd relax the rule if I was having hypoglycemia and needed to eat something.
