Thanks, I did think the article was rather brief and unhelpful, but I didn't realise that was just the abstract.From the information available it does appear to need a subscription to view the whole article, @lindisfel
Sometimes the internet savvy can find this stuff elsewhere and it can be viewed.Thanks, I did think the article was rather brief and unhelpful, but I didn't realise that was just the abstract.
I can sympathize, I am a tall guy with big bones and my BMI has been between 22 and 23 the last two years and I can't get out of the prediabetic range.I am under-weight, but have absolutely no African or Asian blood.

I wonder if it in this article has part of the text.
Maybe the weight loss was from the visceral fat..Yes I was a normal weight when diagnosed T2 went on lower carbs than I had eaten and lost weight that I did not need to. No reason my doctor could find as to why I had T2 but it was not a surprise because I knew I had a glucose intolerance. I never ate a lot of sugar foods did not have a sweet tooth or starchy carbs never ate rice or pasta and just had small amounts of bread and potatoes maybe once or twice a week and never overweight in my life. I come from the generation who always cooked meals from fresh and did not have junk much processed or takeaway foods yet still developed T2 eventually.
With a BMI of about 16, I just don't believe that I have too much visceral fat. This is what I mean when I complain that skinny diabetics are invisible.Seems to be saying that it's the visceral fat build up which we know is true

But as none of your medics have ever sent you for a scan I'm guessing? Then I'm afraid you can't be sure.. ask for one and see?With a BMI of about 16, I just don't believe that I have too much visceral fat. This is what I mean when I complain that skinny diabetics are invisible.

Seems to be saying that it's the visceral fat build up which we know is true then goes on to put the blame on the usuals of processed carbs, sat fat and the combining of carbs and fat like most food studies. Doesn't seem to look at sweetened drink intake (although it probably should and I skimmed through it) and I'm guessing the HFCS is a major component in Asia unlike the UK where it is not used.
So I guess the upshot is whilst they aren't fat they have visceral fat caused by moving to a more Western style SAD diet. Pretty much what most of us say here too. Back to eating proper food not processed junk and they should all be ok again...drink as well as food.
