Misinformed, Confused World!

@Asylum... Well Mr.Barry, perhaps you could share the name, of your Birth planet, so we can all pay a visit and chill out, when we go Earth crazy

@bookbar That is the problem, I cannot remember ever moving from one planet to the other. Nevertheless, this one seems vastly different to mine.

@LadyDuck.... So what ever happened to trust, virtually impossible to feel happy saying you can trust anything or anyone, these days...

hi@ladyduck i always listen to my body and it tells me as a diabetic I cannot tolerate sugary syrup on my pancakes so now after once eating that c rap and almost dying I know my body cannot handle it. so it miffs some of the care givers and thats tough as I m not going to let anyone ever again force me to eat syru ip on a pancake and go into a diabetic coma an t die.

@bookbar I wonder if this is done just to confuse people, so no one is really responsible if a product is found harmful for our health. There is always someone who can say "I told you".

Now its good for us;all things in moderation is the key for diabetics i know from my own doctor

@Hatley Well, I was told by my Endo that being I am not taking medication I should not eat any carbs and especially sugar. He said that if I were on medication, then I would be able to have some carbs in moderation. Otherwise my sugar would then go too low.

and a lot are not even done by real pros but people like you and i who are ust making a buci off of writing an aritcle with no real truth at all.

@marlina would be good if we could all make informed choices, but on the evidence put out about everything, these days, virtually impossible to do!

there arew a few I trust 'WebDr Md is o ne ajd MayoClinic is the other I also snopes things as man y are false and are urban legends no truth at all.

Depends who is funding those 'trustworthy' agencies!!

@carexing25 Take your pick, they're probably all wrong.. or right...or none of the above hehe

Good for you Patsie... You're doing great, keep on doing what you're doing!

@polaris77 Nice to meet you.... Tea is my must have tipple, Coffee evokes the Fight or Flight mechanism in my body, so I rarely go there...

@bookbar who knows anymore what is good for us or bad, Coffee is supposed to produce good endorphins "According to the Journal of Young Investigators website, caffeine mimics the chemical structure of certain neurotransmitters called adenosine. These molecules, which are primarily responsible for creating sensations of sleepiness and drowsiness, become blocked by the caffeine and are impaired in their task of shutting down the body for sleep. While in the brain, caffeine speeds up the rate at which neurons fire, inducing a state of fight or flight in the pituitary gland, which then stimulates the sympathetic nervous system by releasing adrenaline. As a result of this process, some individuals feel a boost in alertness and mood, which is often associated with the release of endorphins." this is from the site itself - quoted for you. Thats why you feel like you are palpitating.

@Inlemay... Hmmm, does the opposite to me...gives me palpitations and puts me into a very unnatural sleep, so just as well I'm not studying, especially the results of coffee studies!

@Inlemay Well I certainly get the fight reaction, but the flight bit is somewhat awry in my body, unless you can sleep your way out of danger

@BACONSTRIPSXXX If you like it ,drink it in moderation...they can't all be right/or wrong,, so your call!
