I'd heard about Mr Watson's weight loss before, and had mentioned it to my local member of parliament (also a Labour Party member) here in New Zealand, but the diabetes bit was new to me.
Maybe that's the key to achieving real policy change someday, get more fat/diabetic politicians to try LCHF? |

This is like saying butter contains "some" fat. It's not "not even" bananas, it's "especially not" foods like bananas. |
Re the graph in that article, interesting that Turkey has the highest rate of obesity in Europe. Wonder what accounts for that?
Turkey 32.1% Malta 28.9% UK 27.8% Hungary 26.4% Lithuania 26.3% |

My thought exactly!!! :agree: However, not many 'round' politicians here so this would be a slow process, but definitely progress in the right direction. |

It's probably the amount of sugary drinks they consume. There's a very high demand for bottled beverages in areas with improving wealth but poor water. |

tweet : My experience in losing 98lbs and putting type 2 diabetes in remission has given me a new mission to help others. Today I'm announcing Labour's commitment to halt the alarming rise in diabetes within one term of govt.

I hope politicization doesn't polarize people on this issue. One reason why I'm happy with the no politics rule on this forum, although like a lot of people here, sometimes I can't help myself and somebody has to remind me. :lol: This is too important to be just for people of this or that political persuasion, there's plenty of people on the forum with political views far from my own, in various different directions. who I'm quite fond of and glad have found a low carb approach that helps them.
