@Svein_Arne_Grønnevik, WRONG. If you get Diabetes 2 because of spiking and dropping blood sugar, that's YOUR FAULT for eating the wrong choice of foods, not because of not eating enough food. The whole point of my post is that you're not supposed to get hungry more than once per day, and you getting hungry more than once per day is YOUR FAULT for choosing to develop a habit that causes your body to expect food multiple times *because of eating multiple times.*
