[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2263169, member: 480869"] I haven’t seen the specific article referred to above ....But I suspect it’s the usual confusion of correlation and causation misrepresented by lazy journalism and the lack of understanding between visceral adiposity and general obesity. None the less we have to accept that visible obesity is often associated with metabolic issues (as symptom not cause) and type 2 which I suspect is the diabetes type the slap dash journalism is referring to. Much as I hate this type of sensationalist misreporting, ignoring the common fundamental problems of appalling dietary guidelines and lack of recognition of nutrition in health issues cannot go unmentioned through fear of being labelled fat shaming or else the cycle continues.
