Quis custodiet ipsos custodes

While having a look at my favourite UK forum, at the present time, diabetes.co.uk, I came upon the quote below..
Cleary this Edie knows what he is talking about. I wanted to find more posts by Edie. Checking the members list, there appears to be no member called Edie. Rather strange I thought. How can a member quote, re a forum post of a member that does not exist. Searching the forum, it also appears the post never originated on the d.uk forum. Stranger by the minute. There was only one thing for it. I contacted Special Black OPs asset Dick Duck. As always Dick quickly solved the case. He confirmed Edie was never a member, and the post was never placed on the d.co.uk forum. He informed me the member who quoted Edie, was a deeply embedded, long time lowcarb anti troll.

Who is this Edie, who is Zoroaster, where did Edie’s post originate ? It looks like Dick will be working overtime on this one. Eddie

For me it's not a question of high or low, more a question of unnecessary medication. At what point does it become unnecessary? when a diabetic is consuming food that has little nutritional or satiating value, and medicates to cover against BG rises. Food such as potatoes, normal bread, rice and pasta, gateaux and donuts etc. There are so many foods we can eat, that are very low in starch, and offer far more in the way of nutrients. They also require less insulin or medication to control BG"

Think Edie needs to reclaim some of the duck's overtime repayments, he didn't do such a good job on finding out who I really am :lol:
