LMAO (or not, lol) my secret is not succumbing to diabetes. Outwitting sugar scenarios and sheer will and self determination are key factors to success.
If I continue to test below A1C markers in my blood labs, then my primary physician will count my plant based, zero sugar diet as legitimate means criteria to discontinue experimental medication to inhibit the diabetic downward spiral most people contend with if they're not willing to give up sugar or not give up eating foods that convert readily into sugar in the blood stream.
My ultimate goal is to create smarter food behaviors which lead to increased health outcomes for not becoming diabetic.
So say for example I couldn't and refused to stop eating dairy based foods or couldn't stop eating pasta or breads or rice, which convert readily into sugar, then I'd become an full fledged diabetic.
I refuse to become diabetic.. ...so I've given up sugar and refuse to eat any food that converts readily into sugar.
For The WIN
