Dual Pricing in Thai Tourism: Economic Necessity or Hidden Bias?
Chomper Higgot replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Clearly not, because if a foreigner meets the residence requirements they pay the lower resident fees. -

She obviously doesn’t meet the residence requirements. But good decision getting higher education in the UK rather than Thailand. -

He’s a billionaire, of course he’s optimistic. -
Agreed. Certainly the main brand Granolas and Mueslis are dosed with fructose and additives. I make my own Granola with zero added sugars, but even then only have a small portion and only directly before training or racing. Fructose and Sucrose are a bad mix to add into any meal, they both metabolize through different paths, effectively doubling the glycemic index of the meal. Mixing fructose and sucrose is a trick used by endurance athletes during races or hard training efforts to double the rate of glycogen during their effort. But these are people burning over 1000 calories an hour, hence the risks associated with insulin resistance aren’t present during this dedicated usage.

Diabetes is an outcome of insulin intolerance and insulin intolerance is caused by two factors, genetic predisposition and consuming foods with a high glycemic index. High glycemic index foods will induce insulin resistance in anyone regardless of genetics. High glycemic index foods did not form a substantial part of people’s diets prior to the the uptake of processed foods and the introduction processed products like corn syrup into the nation’s diet. If you were in Thailand you would be able to observe the very same increase in obesity as processed and high glycemic index foods become an increasing part of the local diet.

I expect the devil is in the details. Oats by example: “Whole oats are slower to digest and have lower GI scores than quicker forms of oats. Steel-cut oats have a GI score of about 53, and rolled oats — of about 57. Steel-cut oats may take longer to digest, reducing spikes in blood sugar. Both oat types are better choices than other forms, such as instant oats, which have a GI of about 83.” https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/rolled-vs-steel-cut-oats#health-benefits

Why are you banging on about Juries? The statement I made was based on a judge’s adjudication, link provided. Try dealing with the argument I made rather than the argument you wish I had made.
