Type 1 diabetics aren’t always obese...not by a long shot. A friend of mine died at 54...she weighed in the neighborhood of 115-120 her entire life...nothing about her appearance signaled ‘diabetic’.
This is 100% you making up something I never said. And then coming after me for not saying it.
This is called a strawman argument.
Did I say all diabetics are fat and obese? Where did I say that?
The facts are Americans are the heaviest they have ever been. We have every demographic you can measure heavier than ever. We consume sugar and carbs more than ever. Compounding it a majority of people now work jobs that are sedentary, non physical jobs. Its very evident to see how weight factors into people developing diabetes. Most diabetics are not genetic or juvenile. Most of the american cases are type 2, and those form largely from diet and exercise issues.
I really believe you need to stop reading things into statements that are not there. Unless you just like throwing strawman arguments out there.
Type 1 is pretty much dependent on genetics. Very, very insulin dependent. Starts at a early age.
I know a young lady who developed Type 1 at the age of 5. In the 4 grade she beat up a guy in her class who kept teasing her. Her mom said “What do expect from a kid that has a needle stuck into her 3 times a day! This kid is now a Doc.
Type 2 is dependent on genetics, weight and also pregnancy makes you more vulnerable. More dependent on diet and exercise. Starts at a later age.
