[QUOTE="Neemo, post: 954588, member: 201892"] Yep; saying Type 2 is [I]caused[/I] by overeating is overly simplistic (I.e. missing context). Once you've "acquired" certain metabolic ailments (Insulin/leptin resistance), it can be [B]incredibly[/B] difficult to reduce weight. So, rather than blaming individuals, it should be a case of making food manufactures accountable, and educating people to the deleterious effects of processed carbs/excessive sugar. But the normalisation/rationalisation of the obesity epidemic, sets an extremely dangerous precedent. The Food manufacturers, simular to the Tobacco Industry from previous decades, have a number of experts they employ to conduct "research/studies", which corroborate the unscrupulous narrative they are perpetuating; "All nutrients are (including sugar...) equal, and should be consumed as part of a healthy, balanced diet". The below documentary; Merchants of Doubt, pretty much sums up whats wrong with a lot of 'research' that is funded by corporations with vested intetests; [URL]http://m.imdb.com/title/tt3675568/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
