[QUOTE="Roytaylorjasonfunglover, post: 990543, member: 166184"] Here is a interesting picture from an article about bmi and diabetes. 16 percent of the women with a normal AND underweight BMi had a bodyfat of 16 percent. For men it was 6 percent. [URL]http://i2.nyt.com/images/2015/08/28/science/bodyfat-bmi/bodyfat-bmi-jumbo-v2.png[/URL] [URL]http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/cp/summer-of-science-2015/latest/how-often-is-bmi-misleading?smid=tw-nytimesscience&smtyp=cur[/URL] I have also fond this website, it is a newly started initative, diapedia. It is supposed to be the wikipedia of diabetes. [URL]http://www.diapedia.org/[/URL] One of the most interesting pages I found was this one. [URL]http://www.diapedia.org/type-2-diabetes-mellitus/3104085122/genetics-of-type-2-diabetes[/URL] It shows some twinstudies done with monozygotic twins. The found twin pairs with diabetes type 2 and checked the percentagewize difference. In the finnish study only 36 percent of the pairs both had it, but in the japanese twin study it was 83%! They also show this very interesting british study, where they follow a pair of twins for over 15 years, but originally only one of the twins had it. After the follow period over 75 % percent of the healthy twins had developed it! But that still leaves 25% which did not get it. These studies only strengthen my theory that excess fat of the wrong kind causes diabetes, caused by overeating. nothing else can explain that people with so like genetic material can have such a spread in the normalcy of the disease.
