Food Network celeb chef and restaurateur Paula Deen has made headlines with her disclosure of Type 2 diabetes. Now, TMZ via ABC News at Yahoo, has showed her, allegedly, flouting her diabetes by eating a cheeseburger. Although I'm not a doctor, I wonder if the bigger problem isn't the cheeseburger itself, but the accompanying bun and French Fries, examples of refined and simple carbs, respectively, that tinker with blood sugar levels.
The best way to find out about your own risk for diabetes is to have your own blood glucose levels checked; there is a lot of discussion about getting Hba1C tests done as well. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offer a helpful guide.
