Vitamins have no kcals and they're easily destroyed Minerals are essential, something you must not avoid Carbs, proteins, fats: provide us with our calories Alcohol does too, but don't waste all your salaries Water makes up sixty percent of your body weight These are the six nutrients that should always be on your plate Fats oils Taste good sweets. Milk, yogurt, cheese. Meats eggs nuts and beans Vegetables such as yucky beets. Fruits reds,oranges, and greens. Bread, rice, pasta, and cereal: these are the food groups that keep us lean Insulin are doormen; are hormones; are proteins Don't take an overdose, buddy, it might shock you kinda mean It's made in the pancreas and lowers blood glucose sweetly Glucagon from the pancreas raises BG rather neatly They all sorta sound real close, some maybe even a tad bit gross Monosacchs are named galactose, glucose and fruity fructose Listen! Lactose is the most familiar dissaccharide It means to some, cow milk, they just cannot abide Sorbitol is found in most sugarless, weird tasting gum It doesn't promote cavities and helps the diabetes some Aspartame is in blue; Saccharin's packet is in pink Aspartame is found in poisionous diet cola drink Aspartame may cause nerve damage and here is a fright It turns into formaldehyde at 86 Fahrenheit I sure bet you wish you Could rip out the fat In your adipose tissue The endosperm has the most starch and is made into flour Eat a lot of fiber and you'll be busy in an hour You can find animal starch not in the plants If you don't remember that, you will not have a chance You need 'bout twenty-five g's: fiber, out of your dietary diet It produces an even rise of BG if you would only try it Type I diabetics are insulin dependent If we all had their diets that would sure be resplendent You can't take an insulin pill because insulin is a protein It'd just get digested and never again would be seen Type II diabetics tend to be in the older bracket Insulin receptors, in good supply, they really tend to lack it They also can get it from obesity; they are not auto immune If they don't lose some weight they may be dying kinda soon Polyuria is excessive urine; Polydipsia lots of thirst Glycosuria is glucose in your pee, wait it gets even worse Diabetics get blurred vision and a sorta inside tingling Hyperglycemia, weight gain, and dehydration intermingling You won't be to busy in fact you can even rest in Fiber puts to work your small and large intestines It can prevent the onset of (let's talk about) constipation Also helps hemorrhoids to my grandest pure elation I am muttering these lines, in class, hoping to get an A If that's what happens, by way of this, a sequel's on it's way [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 10-24-2000).] |

This is a test I'd fail, I'm afraid.  Very creative to make this into a poem. Reading all of it, I don't think it does anything for my appetite! LOL! To think of what all that stuff does...You're smarter than I am. I never could have understood this subject enough to make a poem from it. |

Walt I love medical stuff, and this is one post I can refer back to. Strange it is that I sent that email out about aspartame. That crap is seriously dangerous. Great job and good luck on the test buddy! |
