To: Mainstream Supermarkets
Supply Ketogenic Diet Food Boxes via Online Supermarket Stores.
Due to the Cornavirus crisis, mainstream supermarkets need to provide a essential Food Box service at an affordable price that caters for Type-2 diabetics and those who practice a low carb or ketogenic diet.
Two types of Keto Food Boxes could be created. A Vegetarian option and a Meat option.
Keto Meat Option:

Pack of Pork Chops
3 tins of Mackerel or Sardines.

All of above with the following alternatives for meat:

Why is this important?
Unlike the rest of the UK population people with type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance can damage their bodies by eating too much carbohydrates. The vast majority of Food Box's that M&S and Morrisons offer contain food's which have a large carbohydrate value, which make them insufficient for the needs of a type 2 diabetic person(s).
Online delivery slots are increasingly hard to come by and Food Boxes on offer are insufficient to type 2 diabetics needs.
Furthermore the Cornavirus crisis risks damaging the populations health as people choose non-perishable food items that are mainly carbohydrates, over foods which provide good amounts of nutrition, healthy fats and immune system boosting vitamins that the body needs to fight off viral infections.
The health survey of 2017 for England states that 28.7% of adults are obese and a further 35.6% are overweight. These high numbers are bound to increase if the UK population doesn't make healthy food choices.
Around June 2018 the NHS approved diabetes.co.uk's Low Carb program as a viable treatment method for Type2 diabetes. Since its inception it has helped over 435,000 people loose weight and lower their blood sugar.
I ask all Health conscious people, Low Carb and Keto dieters (Vegan or Carnist) too sign this petition so supermarkets can stockpile foods which could change the nations health for the better while we are all in isolation.
Healthy people are needed to kick start our economy when this is all over.
