OK I can understand that. I still don't understand how it would affect BS levels though. As someone who is vertically challenged, it seems to me that the few diabetics I know, or saw on the DESMOND course, are not that tall. All were around 5'6".
I would have thought that being shorter would generally mean being more likely to have a higher BMI and therefore a higher tendency to becoming diabetic, though I know that diabetes isn't necessarily related to being overweight.
So did I, until I developed it. I'm very tall and my BMI is 21.
