Excessive sugar intake doesn't cause diabetes though.

@[email protected] Can excessive sugar intake cause diabetes?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (16 children)

Yes, excessive sugar intake can potentially increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Consuming a diet high in sugar, especially sugary beverages, can lead to obesity, which is a significant risk factor for type 2 diabetes. However, it's important to note that the direct relationship between sugar intake and diabetes is complex and influenced by many other factors, including physical activity, age, overall diet quality, and genetic predisposition.

Keep in mind that while a meme might make this subject seem simple or humorous, it is a complex health issue. Using a balanced diet with limited sugar intake along with regular physical activity is a good strategy for reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. For personalized advice or if you have specific concerns, please consult with a healthcare professional.

This is a way more articulate version of what I was gonna say lol The end result of mine is that it’s absolutely fucked how easily some people can develop it while consuming next to no sugar while others can go crazy with it their entire lives and never develop it
