so India has a great number of people with type 2 diabetes despite having a so-called healthy grain based diet

for example lentil curry and rice [it is not the saturated fatty doughnuts usually associated with diabetes type 2]

the so called experts have been lying to us - definitely diabetes 2 is a disease of starvation and not having enough primary protein in the diet - the protein in beans is obviously not sufficient for a lot of people

the more grains the population consumes the greater their numbers develop type 2 diabetes

Interesting.
But i advocate a theory its boom is due to the increased consumption of processed foods, hydrogenated fats and artificial flavour enhancers.
Not to mention the feeds given to livestock and fertilizers (grains link?) that have been introduced to the foodchain and increased pollutants.
Take tapwater also, its chorinated, this is toxic to the pancreas. I use a water filter now.
A culmination of events if you will.

Shouldn't you be looking at per capita consumption.
India and China consume more in total because they have the Worlds biggest populations.
Here is a per capita map:

and whilst looking for it came across this which puts the figures into perspective.

Total foodgrain consumption — wheat, rice, and all coarse grains like rye, barley etc — by each person in the US is over five times that of an Indian, according to figures released by the US Department of Agriculture for 2007.

Each Indian gets to eat about 178 kg of grain in a year, while a US citizen consumes 1,046 kg.

In per capita terms, US grain consumption is twice that of the European Union and thrice that of China. Grain consumption includes flour and by conversion to alcohol......

As far as meat consumption is concerned, the US leads the world in per capita consumption by a wide margin. Beef consumption, for example, is 42.6 kg per person per year, compared to a mere 1.6 kg in India and 5.9 kg in China. In case you are thinking that perhaps Indians might be going in for chicken, think again. In the US, 45.4 kg poultry meat is consumed every year by each person, compared to just 1.9 kg in India
