[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1659734, member: 429870"] Personally, I doubt he thinks this. Rather, his research has focussed on helping over-weight people with diabetes and the plight of the minority with diabetes who are truly under-weight does not interest him. As far as I can see, all research projects use over-weight and/or obese people. I suppose under-weight people with high bg are a very diverse lot, including those who are T2 and those who are mis-diagnosed T1, also those who are thin due to other health problems. I can see that using them for research would be complicated. At the same time it does seem to me that a lot of research is partially invalidated, as it is not clear whether the results were obtained due to weight loss or due to the particular diet used.
