[QUOTE="Sunspot, post: 595898, member: 118796"] Diana, you might be a rare exception then. I mean you may be right about the cause of your diabetes. I think it is autoimmune for type 1 isn't it? i can't remember what i read on that score. Anyway it sounds like an interesting case. Sorry to say. AFter that, what you say about genetics isn't clear. Are you simply disagreeing that genetics is a factor? Why not? Clearly your family has protective genetics. I read a discussion about protective genetics recently. It was in relation to different races having more protection because they had had longer in evolutionary terms living with the disease in their society and had had need to develop the protective genes. Such examples were for Africans, Aborigines and other non european descendent races - all of whom are said to be more susceptible to diabetes type 2 than caucasians. [/QUOTE]
