With food intake its easy to blame one thing for affecting diabetes or weight. Like blaming carbohydrate in isolation. Or sugars. Or fructose. Or Glycemic Index. Or fats. Or saturated fat. Or alcohol.

Blaming one macronutrient, whilst ignoring total intake and energy contribution as a whole is shortsighted.

We need to look at the whole diet, and what makes it up as pieces of the puzzle.
