Perhaps they should volunteer at a soup kitchen or a homeless shelter sometime...
If it's any consolation, my parents really aren't establishment, believe-your-doctor types. They both quit statins after reading up on them and experiencing some nasty side effects. But my diabetic mother, who knows exactly what she needs to do to clean up her diet and reduce her dependence on insulin and diabetes medications (which make her ill), absolutely will not do it. She *likes* sweets. And pasta. There are days when I think T2D must be a form of possession, rather than an illness.
