Yes, But!!! Research suggests fat as principal dietary factor leading ...

[Guest guest]

I'm just " conjecturing " , but since we, at least in America, have been on a

" low-fat " kick for about 30-40 years now, & diabetes is increasing at epidemic

rates, does that fit with the " fat causes T2 diabetes " theorem?

Just askin', thanks for the link,

Hi all,

In a recent journal article, researchers claim that high dietary fat--not

dietary carbohydrate--induces type-2 diabetes. See the medical press

coverage at http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-1961558,00.html> and

the MedLine abstract at <

ract&list_uids=16377570&query_hl=1&itool=pubmed_docsum

For those who disagree, please bear in mind that I'm merely reporting

publication of the article, not taking a position on its claims .

Cheers.
