Hes pointing out that what you said was factually incorrect. Diabetics don't lose the ability to process carbs at all.

Carbs are broken down along with proteins and fats. What Type 2 diabetes entails is glucose building up in the bloodstream with no real way to utilize it due to insulin resistance.

Er... you are just assuming by process I mean digest.

To be clear:

> glucose building up in the bloodstream with no real way to utilize it

Inability to process carbs and sugar. Maybe your description is more accurate.

Using the term "inability to process carbs and sugar" is misleading and totally not the same thing as insulin resistance.

Its generally assumed that processing carbs is the act of digestion. You're using the word processed in the wrong situation here.

EDIT: Also you can still process carbs, you just can't utilize glucose in the blood as a diabetic.

Okay, so if I replace "process" with "utilise" we are good?

Yeah I'm with you on this. If someone assumes by one word you mean another word, and by using the other word, you're wrong, well, I think their logic is flawed.

I guess, sorry if I am coming across as touchy. I'm a diabetic and there is a ton of misinformation out there about it!

It's nice to see amicable resolutions online.
