[QUOTE="Roytaylorjasonfunglover, post: 998921, member: 166184"] Roy Taylor is a researcher that needs to be very careful about his language, he does not have data for a whole lifetime, therefore he cannot be to outspoken or certain.. But his whole hypothesis is that if people were able to maintain their personal "ideal weight", they will never get diabetes. So if Roy Taylor had a cohort of 100 people with diabetes, who then managed to return to their ideal weight, and STAY there for the rest of their life, they would not get diabetes in his mind. The only thing that would disprove his theory, would be if many of those people still got type 2 diabetes, despite maintaing their ideal weight, for the rest of their life. The cause of diabetes type 2 would then be something else, not excess bodyfat, like eating too many carbs or never getting enough sleep. Mind you, I think in the future we will see more subtypes of type 2, but most people have the one which is brought forward by excess bodyfat of the wrong kind, which their genetics are not able to cope with. Consider this, 80 percent of diabetics are obese, but only 10 % of all obese get diabetes. that is an astonishing fact in my opinion that do show the power of genes. [/QUOTE]
