BUT THEY TOLD ME IT WAS SAFE TO TAKE….

It's never to early to start kicking ass!

Please take a moment to read this article. Article.  Why is it relevant to you, you ask?  I don’t believe that we have any diabetics currently training at CPC, however, I’d be surprised if you don’t know any in your personal lives who does.  The bigger picture of the article is more what I’m after here anyway.  What is striking about this article is two fold.  One is the fact that there is doubt as to whether the company that profited immensely from the sale of this drug knew in advance that it would kill people.  This would not be the first time that this has happened.  That’s part 1.  Part 2 is that for the most part diabetes is a lifestyle related disease – meaning that proper nutrition (not “replacing my current fast-food intake with Taco Bell’s new healthy menu”, as the commercial says, but real nutrition) and exercise can eliminate it in the vast majority of cases.  So here we have a situation in which a company has made a lot of money by selling a deadly drug to people that could have avoided the whole mess by eating well and working out.  This is not who you all are, but who you walk among on a daily basis.  I’ve said this before, but will stand on my soapbox and say it again and again – protect your health at all costs!  The alternative might kill you.
