Agreed. And, the diet modifications have to exclude transfats, like butter and margarine. Lean meat and less of it. More fiber, etc.
I don't expect to have to go on meds and I think the genetic thing is a little overplayed by the medical community. Not that it isn't real. There are hereditary and familial relationships....I just don't think it's quite as prevalent as people are led to believe. Let's face it. It behooves the pharmaceutical companies to get people on these meds, since compliancy on nutritional discipline is at an all time low. The same reasoning applies to the medical community. It is a business, after all.
