I didn’t know corn was in bread. Makes sense as it’s in everything else. Diet is extremely important and for some reason the healthiest diet is opposite of what doctors tell you. I keep getting pushed to do a plant based diet. But I know better. They need us sick to make more money and be reliant on them.
You have been through a lot and continue to fight forward. You should be very proud of yourself
Absolutely the plant based diet is the worst thing we can do. There may be a few abnormal humans that do better on a plant based diet, but I'm definitely not one of them.
I have a lot of things that are reversed for me. Most medicines process out of my system way faster, and pain meds often take longer to take effect, or take more to take effect. My body can turn almost anything into glycogen, carbs, proteins...I swear, even some fats.
Been low carb for years! And then medically supervised Keto for the last 3 years, and things still haven't come down to normal. So many meds for BG cause me serious side effects without doing anything useful.
And yes, pain is my constant companion. So, I feel ya.
I know far more about my body and how it works (or doesn't) than the doctors. And sadly, being a veteran with only VA meds/doctors, that often means that I can't get what I actually need, unless I pay out of pocket, which isn't possible 8 times out of 10.
So, health, yes, take care of you body, currently it's the only one you get. It is definitely one more reason to dream of genetic "fixes" that actually do, Stem cell therapies that you can afford, and future cloned bodies that you can upload your soul into.

I so know what you mean!

I'm a veteran as well and I've done the VA system. Thankfully I am also a widow of a retiree so I was able to do TriCare. Saved my life btw.
