“The analysis involved participants with a mean age of 56 years and mean BMI of 30 kg/m2.”
Who paid for this one? The scientists (?) took a group of obese people, starts at over 25 BMI and confirmed at 29 BMI, took them with a moderate age of 52, outside of prime body capacity for either sex and when the body is well on it’s way to cutting exercise, and detemined that those they “picked” were a prime suspect for diabetes.
According to the United Sttes Preventative Task Force type 2 diabetes can develop at any age, but it’s more common in people over 40. It’s caused by insulin resistance and is more common in people who are obese.
I guess failure was no option as they set up the test subjects to go right where they wanted it to go. Then produced the results they set up to be determined and adding an additional factor that wasn’t one. Must have been a grant. That’s like putting all the bulls over 2000 pounds into a corral and saying they own nothing but ton weight bulls.

Yet, people with a 30 BMI who did not get to sleep late didn’t have the problem as much.
So something useful is now known.
