Thanks for pointing this out Nick. Yes we all know high blood sugar and diabetes predisposes you to many chronic illnesses but at this time of year so many people are having upper respiratory infections and not putting two and two together. So many all around me are sick all the time and continue to eat these toxic foods. Let's keep fighting the good fight.

Shoveling sand against the tide, but still a noble, worthy, and essential endeavor.

And a grammatical nit: the word is 'preventive'. There's no such word as 'preventation'. There. I feel better. 😀

Ever since the "he who must not be named" I've wondered what exactly left the metabolically impaired so vulnerable. There were many articles with declarative statements that they are very vulnerable to poor outcomes, but I never saw an explanation. Thank you.

Welcome :). Obviously, this isn't the whole story. No one mechanism ever is. But it's certainly interesting.

few years ago I did a lecture on glycemic variability and (auto) immunity

priming immune cells trough substrates available.... hypeglycemia or severe hypoglycemia are both a bad choice! high GV is link to IL-17, IL-36, IL-23, IL-22, IL-1 ꞵ, TNFⲁ
