What it's all about.



Some time ago, around a year, I posted an item re. the birth of our youngest grandchild. Her name is Amelia and she arrived unexpectedly early and was delivered by her father at home. The story made the front page of the local paper. Here she is one year on. Like all our grand children she is a lowcarber. Not down to my level of 50 carbs a day, but sweets, crisps and fizzy drinks are a very occasional treat. All her meals are made by her parents from fresh meat, fish, eggs and cheese, with the bulk of her food being fresh vegetables. Mixed fruit is also a daily food. The only liquids are formula milk and water. I think you will agree, she is doing very well on a diet, that is not based on sugar, starch and junk.

I come from a family of four generations of type two diabetics. We are doing our utmost to try to end diabetes with our grandchildren’s generation. We have six kids (all grown up) and five grandchildren. I have not been able to convert all our kids to the lowcarb lifestyle, but here’s the strange thing, as I said earlier, all their kids are lowcarbers, think about that. They want to give, like all parents, their kids the best start in life, and they know sugar, starch and junk must be avoided.
