| It's a 20 year old study in the making which is cool, but didn't we already know this?
Have any of you seen the biggest looser where a lot of the contestants each season have prediabetes and by the time they finish the program they are no longer diabetic?
I am not a type 2 diabetic expert, but in 80% of type 2 diabetics isn't weight, lack of diet, and exercise which triggers the expression of the type 2 diabetic gene?
99% of Type 1 diabetics carry the antibody that destroys pancreatic beta cells [Dr. Denise Faustman's findings] and it is believed that certain illnesses trigger this gene to be expressed. If some Type 1' never develop a/the illness which triggers the faulty antibody can they go there whole live never having Type 1 diabetes? Which then begs the question if Type 2 diabetics watch their weight, eat a proper diet, and exercise can they too go their whole lives never expressing the Type 2 gene? |
