[QUOTE="Avocado Sevenfold, post: 1480159"] You are opening a can of tofu worms there. I have read that people who follow a plant based diet are less likely to develop type 2, but nobody is immune as diet is not the only reason for developing it. I was veggie for about 40 years when I became diabetic. I have since become vegan for ethical reasons. I have noticed a great improvement in my diabetes since which has been a nice bonus. Keep in mind that there are saturated fats in plant foods too. Nuts, seeds, avocado all contain some saturated fats. I will tag [USER=135180]@robin47[/USER] who may have something to add to the discussion. [/QUOTE]
