The reporter not only doesn't know anything about the story, they must have sat on it for a month. I figured lazy reporter, go back a month and read and there it was.

The study was not very good. results are the obese twin had less endurance and less control than the healthy weight one.
Big surprise. Now if they follow them for the next 40 years to see if either/both get diabetes and when
