    Diabetes (Type I) is a bitch, because diet can only manage it somewhat. And there’s 2 subtypes there, with all sorts of biochem happening. Plus hormones are a crazy interwoven system.

    Type II now, yes, there’s near-zero reason to not have control of it, as it’s nearly all diet induced. And something like 90%+ of all diabetes in the US is Type II today. I knew no one as a kid who had diabetes (though it later appeared in my family).
