I'm sorry about that LilaCotton. My own grandmother had Alzheimer's, so I know how difficult it is.

But with the recent research linking Syndrome X with all kinds of problems, I wonder if there isn't a connection.

My own feeling is that even among people without a weight problem, excess carbohydrates can be creating health problems. That's why I feel it's probably good for everyone, but maybe I'm a little biased in that my own carb levels are pretty low for me to feel my best.
