What is the correlation between diabetes and obesity?
Answered By Editor
People with Type 2 diabetes are often obese.
In fact, obesity is now a predictor for new
cases of diabetes. Research is being
conducted by all leading medical universities
to understand the correlation between obesity
and diabetes.
Type 2 diabetics are insulin resistant.
Obesity increases insulin resistance, which
makes your body unable to take up glucose.
This, in turn, causes hyperglycemia.
