A member asked:
Did thin people kinda "eat" their way into diabetes 2?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Obesity is a leading cause of type 2 diabetes so if a thin person becomes obese, he/she is now at higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes. That being said, there are many other causes for type 2 diabetes, thus a thin person can also get type 2 diabetes.
