Sugar in just about everything you eat, even stuff we think of as healthy.
What with high purines that cause gout, the diabetes and ruddy kidney failure if I stuck to only what I can eat I reckon I would be living in water and cheese.

It must suck but in some ways your better off on insulin because its a med that's much more natural and recetptive to the body.

My husband has none alcoholic fatty liver disease and he's as lean as a lamppost. He's treated as a diabetic in the eye clinic, though he's not diabetic. They think it was caused by drinking large amounts of orange juice. He used to drink it to excess before he became ill. He's now, thanks to following doctors orders, as fit as a fiddle and his liver function is looking really good . At one point though they were talking about a liver transplant.
