[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1698450, member: 408573"] My own pet theory is that our western diet has evolved faster than we have. We are just not designed to function on the sheer amount of carbohydrates in todays foodstuffs. As to the comments made about our ancestors not knowing that they may have had T2, their diet was different and their level of activity was different. And ancient humans lived in different habitats and they could live far beyond forty years. One last point, Diabetes was, indeed, known and recorded by the ancient Greeks but that would have been Type 1. Later, much later, T2 was known as sugar diabetes and the differences, even back then, were known. [/QUOTE]
