All through my 7 years as an MBBS student and then as a doctor in a diabetes research centre, i was made to believe that sugar was the greatest culprit in diabetics! strange, that some layman is spreading such 'accurate' knowledge to other laymen about salt being the real villian! sarcasm aside, our concern is appreciated, but please spread knowledge and facts only when you are sure of them; and no, i never knew sucrose could leach calcium from bones either!
