Hello Jroc,
I really appreciate your comments on this forum. You are open minded and let clear thinking rather than emotion guide your arguments. The problem I suspect with this forum is that the people who hang around the starch section are mostly those who believe that they have had success with it. I imagine for those in whom it doesn't work, they simply move on. So that leaves basically a one sided forum, where people like you are a lonely (and perhaps to some, an unwelcome) voice. That is why, my personal request to the moderators is to have a sticky topic at the top which can be titled something like " Poor response stories". Only then will the forum hear more of both sides of the story, so that new visitors to this forum can make up their mind. Also, in that way, there will be less clash between people like yourself and the hard core believers. To the vast majority of people, the starch diet is a big commitment for them and their families. They deserve to see balanced arguments, and in that way, I believe that your balanced inputs are a great support for all spondylitis patients. Well done.
