Diabetes - Inflammation – Not Obesity – Leads to Diabetes

I am the type of person that likes to find root causes.  I have the attitude that if you chop off the head of the snake, you've ended your problem with the snake.  Diabetes is the same for me.  I really would like to discover the root cause. Treating symptoms feels like I'm on a never ending merry-go-round that not so merry.

Do you think that obesity  is the root cause?  Hmm.  I don't really buy that.  There are lots of thin Type 2 diabetics.  I think it is a contributing factor but perhaps not the root cause.

Here I would like to share with you an article that talks about how inflammation may be a part of the root of cause of diabetes.    I hope you'll read it and then share it with your doctor.  I know that is what I'm going to do.
