Guest guest Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 My concern lies not only with overt reaction but also with "silent" damage to bones, nervous system, gut, etc. I don't want to increase my chances of cancer, stroke, osteoporosis, memory loss, or anything else for the sake of a doughnut! And I don't want my family to have to deal with the possible bad results, now or years down the line. H.

I was given the example of “CD is not like diabetes were you can cheat with a piece of cake on your birthday and deal with the consequences. A one time cheat adds to the cumulative damage.â€Â Anyone else this way? ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
