diabetes has everything to do with the gut blood sugars are sorted before they enter the bloodstream .
platelets are more harmful .
tests on diabetes way back in the 1500s confirmed a diet problem hence the name diabetes .
Blood sugars are a strong sign and cause damage but and not the be all and end all of diabetes.
definitely a problem of the gut cholesterol is made up of :sugar
fat and platelets this causes blood flow problems and platelets are for healing when in cholesterol they catch on to fresh platelets stopping the healing process

Furthermore, healthy women have higher numbers of gut bacteria known to be producers of butyrate, a fatty acid that has previously been linked to beneficial health effect.
On the basis of these findings, the researchers developed a new model that can distinguish between patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy women by analysis of the metagenome. This model has better predictive value than the classical predictive markers used today, such as body-mass index and waist-hip ratio.
I wouldn't have a clue about hip bones, but you could google it
I was interested in gut microbe and diabetes and is it a precursor?
I have read other articles, and around the world diabetics have different microbes than their peers and peers differ around the world as to their gut bugs @Spiker it would be nice if there was a probiotic that prevented diabetes
