Reply to comment by Illusive_Man in Despite improvements in insulin formulations and delivery over the last 30 years, diabetes control has not improved among US adults, and disparities for minority and uninsured adults worsens by Ordinarymangodoctor

You’ve completely missed the point.

If there is nothing but “cheap, bad food” on grocery shelves then you can’t possibly expect every diabetic to get the “expensive, good food” to manage their condition.

You’re thinking to small. This is not an individual choice problem. The problem is that the government/grocery corporations have financial incentives from Big Agriculture and Big Sugar to continue stocking our shelves with “bad foods.”
