This is GREAT news!

According to this article,( http://archives.chicagotribune.com/2009/nov/08/health/chi-tc-health-diab-bariatric-103--dot--ar0nov08 ) they have potentially found a way to ‘cure’ Type 2 Diabetes and obesity all in one shot!  Unfortunately, this is yet another example of the medical and research communities enabling the public to continue in the unhealthy diet and lifestyle patterns they are accustomed to.  Instead of making recommendations for prevention, they offer seemingly ‘easy’ solutions in the form of drugs and/or surgery.   For the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries this means more money in their pockets and less time spent counseling patients on preventative measures.  Additionally, the public may view this as a “Get out of Jail Free” Card to eat what they want until they ‘break’ and then go in and get ‘fixed’ for another 100,000 miles.

Surgery and drugs may work, but eating Paleo combined with a smart exercise program, works too!  And the best part – you will never have to limit meals to servings of two tablespoons – in liquid form, steak is always on the menu, and fat is your dietary friend!  Eat it up!
