The lesson: Don't allow children to repeat our mistakes. Letting them indulge in a lifestyle of soft drinks, candy, pretzels, and other processed junk carbohydrates has the potential to cause diabetes 20 or 30 years later, shortening their life by 10 years. Kids are not impervious to the effects of high sugar, including the cumulative damaging effects of glucose toxicity.
Let our children learn from the mistakes we made before we knew any better. I hope that you, too, have learned from past mistakes and eliminated processed carbohydrates that cause diabetes from your life.
