I'll be changing my breakfast cereals.

OK good for you. Should probably be getting fewer carbs for breakfast anyways.

Not giving up cereal even if it were made by literally Hitler. Probably my most carb-heavy meal of the day. But I don't eat eggs, so there's virtually nothing low-carb out there for breakfast. 20g for Cheerios or 29g for Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch will have to suffice.

The fruit is just as bad for you as the cereal

Cereal is just about the worst thing you can eat for breakfast anyways.

had to run to the kitchen and double check my cocoa pebbles weren't kellogg. Phew that was a close one

how are they all beneficial? do they offset the spike in insulin? doubt it

They will not prevent an insulin spike. However, the spike will not be as great because fruits also contain fiber. Fiber helps slow the digestion of carbs and thus it's entry into the bloodstream. The antioxidants, vitamins and phytochemicals found in fruits serve numerous physiological functions. Blueberries have been called the "brain food" because of their ability to enhance cognition. Fiber from fruit increase colon transit time, protecting against colon cancer. Many of the vitamins are enzyme co-factors involved in metabolic pathways. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

They have supported PBS for decades. The Ford Foundation as well. The founders of these foundations would roll over in their graves if they knew how their money is being used.

I'm a fan of avoiding junk carbs. Your claim is simply not true. I'm slowly losing my
vision and there is little I can do about it. One of the things I can do to slow the progression is to eat fruits like blue berries,goji berries,strawberries,blackberries and raspberries and to take specific vitamins. The only treatment available to me once the disease progresses is intravitreal injections (shots directly in the eyeball). I am currently receiving this treatment in one eye and responding very well. Not only responding well but my vision improved in an eye we gave up on from 20/2200 a year ago to 20/50 as of last Thursday. No one has an explanation but no one is ruling out my diet.
