Dr James Muecke AM is our 2020 Australian of the Year for his work as an eye surgeon over many decades restoring sight for thousands of people around the world. His non-profit organisation Sight For All educates both patients and opthalmic/optometric health practitioners in countries around the world and has seen a correlative rise of poor eye health with Type 2 Diabetes.
This led Dr Muecke to investigate the causal factors behind Type 2 Diabetes which he now considers to be a 'largely preventable and potentially reversible man-made lifestyle disease'. He places the blame at the feet of insane consumption levels of fructose, with a secondary contributor industrial seed oils, causing inflammation and damage throughout bodily systems manifesting early and clearly in the delicate structure of the eye.
He is a campaigner for 'Awareness, Accountability and Assistance' around the exploding Type 2 Diabetes epidemic globally.
