OR they could stop eating carbs and lose 50 pounds. That would help, too.

Not all diabetics are overweight. I have cousins that are diabetic and they are skinny as rails.

Are they Type II or juvenile? I know several people that have been diabetics since the teen years and they are skinny too. IMO, way too many white refined carbs and too much sugar is causing this "epidemic."
