Diabetes and Yeast Infections

  • Interesting little video . . . http://www.everydayhealth.com/Public...betes_20080905

    Don't know about the rest of you, but yeast infections are something I get far too often, although most of mine are the external kind hitting in those nasty folds of excess fat and skin -- the apron area and the under-breast region.

    You always find interesting tidbits for us.

    I didn't have ANY yeast infections for 42 years...until 2 years ago when I was diagnosed type 2. I get them in the typical place, and it's really awful.

    The HFCS...here in the States, the Corn Refiners Assn. has been hitting hard with commercials pro-HFCS!!! Here's their website:

    They say, it's natural! They say, don't believe that your hairdresser is telling you high fructose corn syrup is bad for you!

    Here's how the well-respected Mayo Clinic weighs in:
