Herschel Walker Says People Worried About High Insulin Costs Should Just 'Eat Right' [View all]

Any Type II Diabetic knows that to "eat right" is not the only answer to having a Pancreas that is not producing enough Insulin. This man is DUMB when it comes to Endocrinology and how the Human Body processes Carbohydrates. My husband eats right and STILL needs Insulin to regulate his Blood Sugar levels.

"Unless you’re eating right, insulin is doing you no good," Walker, the GOP Senate candidate in Georgia, said in Friday's debate against Raphael Warnock.

Herschel Walker, the GOP nominee for a U.S. Senate seat in Georgia, said people who are worried about the high cost of insulin should “eat right” in his only debate against Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) on Friday.

During an exchange about the economy and the high cost of living, Warnock touted his work passing legislation lowering prescription drug prices, including a $35 cap on monthly insulin costs. He noted that Walker had opposed the law, which is called the Inflation Reduction Act.
