I have yet to sit down and watch Food Inc. I have a feeling I would really like it because I enjoy documentaries about things I am interested in–however, I heard it is PRETTY intense, so we’ll see.

Nicole, thanks so much for answering my question about stevia. It was very helpful. I am not sure how to convert the mg/kg equation…my bottles are all in ml or mg (not sure how to relate that to weight in pounds.) I still think I use too much, but I would rather the stevia than other sugars. Most sugar makes me feel awful! xo

This is an awesome Q+A! It’s so great that you can use your knowledge to help others figure out how to live healthier lives. THIS is why I want to be a doctor 😀

My grandfather has Type II diabetes, but he developed it in his late 80’s. Personally, I believe my father, who is definitely close to being categorized as obese, is likely pre-diabetic. But refuses to listen to a word I say about the situation. Sigh.

WOW you are so good to answer all the questions and you’re SO informed! Thanks for all the great info – I loved learning about different nut butters! I’d actually love to know more about how almond butter/almonds compares to other nuts/nut butters (cashew, walnut, etc). Thanks again for sharing!

I LOVE that you post these. I find it so helpful.
Both my boyfriends brother and his father have diabetes, as does a friend of ours. It really irritates me because our friend does NOT take care of himself. We’ve actually stopped hanging around him because I dont want to be a part of it. Hes always drinking and smoking weed, and is actually proud of the fact that he’s at the highest weight he’s ever been in his life. Hes dating a friend of mine, and my fear is that they’ll get married, have kids, and then he’ll die at 40 and she’ll be alone to do it all herself.

Great Q&A! I had actually been wondering about Stevia too, so I’m glad for your info! My friend’s mom has type 2 diabetes, but she’s the only person I know with diabetes.
