My husband, 61, decided that as he was pre diabetic (he wasn't fat either) that he'd control his diet. He has done that and maintained it very well. But he will be a nodding donkey when the doc says try this experiment. I've said cholesterol can be controlled by what you eat and you can do the same with statins. Natural is better than chemical. Nope, docs know best. Yeah, find a good one, they are hard to source! Latest was when I made porridge with raw milk. I discovered a farm about half an hour's drive away, so delighted. I can't consume the pasteurised rubbish - it has unpleasant effects, and if I had a drink at night - with cinnamon, it caused my throat to mucus up so couldn't sleep because I was trying to clear my throat! He swore that I was trying to kill him. These people are so conditioned - and I'm older than him! I have always questioned things, but more so in recent years. I have started my own little personal apothecary and learning so much.
