But most sufferers have type 2, which some 58 percent of the time is triggered by being overweight, combined with a lack of exercise, the WHO and the Foundation said.

and yet the WHO still push the high carb diet for diabetes, and feed the poor on bananas flour and corn.

sheeesh, when will they learn?????

I'm type 2 and was on the ADA high carb/low fat diet for 3 yrs.
I gained 30 lbs, had fasting BS over 200, was always sick and got neuropathy in my feet.
I've been on Atkins for 1 1/2 years, lost 55lbs, have an A1c of 6, I had 1 cold that lasted 3 days and got the feeling back in my feet.
Now, they're saying Atkins is bad, WHY?
