I don't understand how a study like this is even possible. Finding a correlation to what causes diabetes is nearly impossible. You can take 5 groups of 1000 people and all 5 will have totally different percentages of the chances of getting diabetes. I work with about 60 people in this police department, I'm the only one with diabetes, so does that mean that being a police officer reduces the chances of getting diabetes?

It just seems that people want to link everything together no matter what. Maybe I could link diabetes to hair color.

Diabetes is an Art, NOT a Science. You must master the control by skills and not by knowledge alone.
