Dear Dr. Baddadvaisz,

I’m a teenager with diabetes, but I really like Snickers bars.  My folks say if I keep eating them, I could die, but they’re just so darned tasty, I wouldn’t want to live without them.  What should I do?

Sincerely,

Snickers R’ Life

 

Dear Snickers,

I too enjoy eating candy.  If I were to pick a favorite candy, it would be Peeps.  I know what you’re saying about parents.  They can be a drag.  I say, as long as you’re enjoying yourself, go for it. 

There will be plenty of time to worry about your blood-sugar if you survive your youth.

No Charge,

Dr. B
