@Jacob_Rees_Mogg The final desperate act in the Brexit farce is to posit that its negative impact on GDP, labour shortages, travel restrictions and onerous tarriff laden TCA with our biggest market...allows us to be free from something we were never actually in.

So, John is out. At least they can't continue to spread the misinformation that people with #type1diabetes can't have sugar

Ideally we should ALL limit our consumption of refined sugar, but T1D (or other insulin dependent diabetes like T3C) CAN have it too

@TypeOneJames @ryanattar @Sona_unplugged @DikemanDave @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer Thanks James. To clarify this chart has no meaning without any context attached. While you can say this unattributed snapshot indicates potentially high risks it does not show that average Hba1cs in the T1D community at any given time are higher on a balanced diet.

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@ryanattar @Sona_unplugged @DikemanDave @TypeOneJames @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer I assume this is in lieu of evidence that a slightly above normal range Hba1c of 7.8 mmol is an average on CGM and guarantees long-term complications?
It's like Halloween every day for you isn't? Horror stories & kids with eye patches. All to make a buck.

@DikemanDave @ryanattar @Sona_unplugged @TypeOneJames @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer You think this screenshot supports your friend's made up statement about average Hb1cs and guaranteed complications?😆 Lets all join in. I'll send you a screenshot of a 4.8 too.
No Mike. It says nothing.
Dear oh dear.

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@ryanattar @ItIsMikeFitz @Sona_unplugged @DikemanDave @TypeOneJames @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer Sorry perhaps I'm not being clear you said an average HBa1c of 7.8 GUARANTEES long term complications. Not me.
Its within a normal range but it's debatable it is true. The article was about pumps. Why is providing the evidence in alink so hard for you?
We all know why....

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@ryanattar @Sona_unplugged @DikemanDave @TypeOneJames @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer Can you share evidence that typically bgs for balanced diets and tech is 7.8.
Then provide evidence that an average Hba1c of 7.8 guarantees long-term complications please.
Preferably not the same stock 2013 meme if you can please.

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@TypeOneJames @ryanattar @DikemanDave @Sona_unplugged @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer I agree with you though, the more I read, the more I realise your evidence base is incredibly tenuous. I imagine that's why the attack dogs have been out for daring to question the validity of a statement about T1D kids on a TV show you didnt watch

@TypeOneJames @ryanattar @DikemanDave @Sona_unplugged @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer Nope Research is not conclusive for T1 kids.
Love the idea the BofP for a fringe US cottage industry without an evidence base is with the public sector.
But newsflash! It already exists! 😆 Heard of an artificial pancreas? Welcome to 2023.
Fancy some low carb humble pie?

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@Sona_unplugged @DikemanDave @TypeOneJames @ryanattar @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer Assume you mean T2? CC has benefited GC combined with AI tech according to research & improves dialogue with doctors - a risk common with VLCD as well as other health risks for kids. Controversial when your entire carpet bag shtick is any child not on a LCD is mainlining cake

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@DikemanDave @TypeOneJames @ryanattar @Sona_unplugged @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer But more members of the diabetic community particularly medical professionals and the main diabetes charities advocate balanced diets, carb counting in conjunction with open dialogue with care teams and medical tech. No significant evidence at all it fails despite your stock meme

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@DikemanDave @TypeOneJames @ryanattar @Sona_unplugged @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer Given documented risks of high protein and fat in diets for kids for only moderate benefits to bgs compared to carb counting and medical tech. Why would you priortise profit over carb counting shown to provide excellent bgs control without affecting BMI.https://t.co/OcCwPKsREJ.

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@DikemanDave And yet the article you have attached says nothing of the sort. It's about the effects of diabetes depending on the age of onset. T1D is not triggered by diet or preventable by diet. Unless your purpose was simply to share horror stories targeting female children?

It's #InsulinSafetyWeek2023

I know it's odd to say this to the #NHS

But:

Do NOT stop #Insulin in those who need it to live
Stopping it can cause Diabetic ketoacidosis & harm

They are patients who have #T1Diabetes
No,it's not a "diabetes which happens in kids only"

Thank you

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@RahnMorris @ItIsMikeFitz @ryanattar @DikemanDave @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer A balanced diet is recommended for T1D children by @JDRFUK in full consideration of available research. Categorising balanced diets as being about cake and implying they lead to obesity and retinopathy is extreme and immoral. Otherwise I couldn't care less what you eat!

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@DikemanDave @ryanattar @Sona_unplugged @ItIsMikeFitz @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer @saaiyer Its easier to pit VLCDs as the antidote to cake rather than documented risks to health and growth in children isn't it? Medical guidance and @JDRFUK recommended balanced diets for children should be derided just like parents who refuse to prioritise health risks in pursuit of bg

[Annie Hall @racheltcl1]

@RahnMorris @ItIsMikeFitz @ryanattar @DikemanDave @JenniferOJennny @jeffgrim71 @MasterChefUK @BBCiPlayer This was a factually incorrect statement that T1D kids can't have sugar. The contestant proceeded to add sweetener to a cake with carbs. Why was this man a hero? So your group could evangelise extreme views and allege other parents are harming their kids. Case closed on the cult
