Diabetes Epidemic

It's all over the news these days and yet Doctors still seem stumped as to the cause of the surge in the dis-ease. Research shows that obesity is linked to the dis-ease and further research shows that refined sugar in large doses is the cause of excess stored fat. In the last decade sugar has become a staple ingredient in 75% of the foods consumed everyday often hidden in the foods we eat.

On top of this the pharmaceutical industry estimates that diabetes is a 98 billion dollar a year business. Now take all of this information and add that one of the largest pharmaceutical companies Monsanto is also one of the worlds largest controllers of the food supply. Isn't it odd that Doctors still don't see the connection.

Considering all of the research that shows refined sugar to be responsible for many degenerative dis-eases do you think enough is being done to educate the public?
