Belly Fat Linked To Type-2 Diabetes

I've heard people tell me they have diabetes like it was somthing beyond any control in which they were soemhow "afflicated" with. Surely it couldn't be they were ALL fat. And I suspect lazy with a poor diet. I'm sure that probably had nothing to do with it.

Thanks for making this video. I wonder why our doctor doesn't stress lossing weight to get rid of this disease for my dad who have diabetes for over 10 years?

Because doctors make boatloads of money selling unneeded drugs and procedures. I know, I had a grandfather--a WWII veteran--die of diabetes. It is a horrible disease and they did nothing but prescribe pills and procedures to him, never once telling him to lose weight.

thank you so much!!!!

so ur saying that fat around the middle really causes type 2 diabetes?

Yes, abdominal fat in particular is linked to insulin resistance. It's this resistance to the action of insulin that forces your pancreas to work harder to normalize sugar in the blood. An overworked pancreas leads to insulin fatigue. At this point not only has insulin lost its effectiveness, but the body is making less insulin. This is the primary course that leads to type-2 diabetes.

You're not proving that ab fat CAUSES insulin resistance. You're just observing that a lot of people have both at the same time. Do some slim persons with hardly any ab fat also have diabetes? Could it be that ab fat and diabetes are BOTH symptoms of too much carb? Please prove your point. I'm not trying to debate. I'm here to learn. And thanks for the video.

One of the classic signs of posterior pituitary gland deficiency is a pot belly. All type 2 diabetics have some degree of posterior pituitary gland deficiency.

Thanks for the feedback. Glad to help clarify the issue. Learn more about avoiding diabetes and reducing the risks associated with uncontrolled diabetes at my website.

Posterior pituitary gland supplementation will also reduce blood sugar values in type 2 diabetics. A deficient posterior pituitary gland is the cause of the belly fat. This is a classic sign. Unfortunately posterior pituitary is seldom used in medicine. I have taken it for almost 40 years.
