Exploring Diabetes Type 2. May 2, 2015. Dietitians up to No Good. I don't know what else will be uncovered, but my respect for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND) has reached a new low as it has for many of its members. They use the promotion of keeping us safe and being the only safe source for nutrition. If what they are doing now is any indication, they would be the last group I would want in charge of my nutrition. Ben Sheidler, a Coca-Cola spokesman, compared the February posts to product p...
