Plain Stevia is my other sweetener. I use it in my breakfast (either porridge or steamed brown rice, with banana).

Gradually increasing physical activity or "pacing" as tolerated, The deliberate dishonest conflation of GET and pacing continues on unabated.

Practitioners were encouraged to monitor the progress of participants during and after exercise sessions in order to ensure that exercise intensity and volume were within individuals’ capabilities and did not cause undue persistent fatigue or other problems. Encouraged? Hmm. :grumpy: How...

A sugar replacement called erythritol – used to add bulk or sweeten stevia,... – has been linked to blood clotting, stroke, heart attack and death, according to a new study. Argh. That mix is one of the two sweeteners I use. Is there any sweetener that won't kill us?

It is. It is also for unethical people to wilfully misinterpret one's reactions, no matter what they are. +1 They think it is all the same underlying process and effect. Which is why they are so comfortable changing labels and the sales pitch so often. That it is just a matter of figuring out...

And sometimes a lot worse than that. Also, while that statement sounds good at first glance, we know from long and bitter experience how that all too often is a softening up to plea for more BPS (i.e. more psycho-social).

No, but it helps reinforce the propaganda.

Cancelled people don't get access to the media. This is why we must demand a proper inquiry into this endless flow of vile smears against us. I knew there would be a backlash against NICE, but I really did not think it was going to be so dirty and vicious. Is there nobody in the UK parliament...

What fresh hell is this? How many heads does this hydra have?

Endless, brazen repetition of a lie unjustified claim is a cornerstone of propaganda. Unfortunately it really does work. Preferably before we are all dead would be nice too.

:speechless:

Yes, the poor darlings are being so cancelled that one of their most senior fellow travelers is now a commissioner for the NHS. So cancelled that they continue to occupy influential senior positions on the boards of peer-review journals, in medical education, clinical guidelines, and public and...
