Visceral Fat And Insulin Resistance Not Obesity Increases Risk of Diabetes
http://www.diabetesincontrol.com/ind...id=1&Itemid=17 * There were no associations between prediabetes or diabetes incidence with general markers of obesity, such as body mass index (BMI) or total body fat * Having excess visceral fat and insulin resistance, but not being obese in and of itself, puts heavier patients at risk for prediabetes and diabetes, researchers found. Visceral fat = "wheat belly" -- Dogman "I have approximate answers and possible beliefs in different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything" - Richard Feynman
