Caffeine ups blood sugar level in diabetics: study

As if they care.
"Cutting down on caffeine could help people with the most common form of diabetes better control their blood sugar levels, researchers said on Monday....

Caffeine is found in coffee, tea and many soft drinks.

Diabetes is a condition in which one's blood glucose levels are too high. Having too much glucose in the blood can damage the eyes, kidneys and nerves, and diabetes can also lead to heart disease, stroke and limb amputations.

Type-2 diabetes is the form closely linked to obesity."

These fat folk are willing to risk "damage [to] the eyes, kidneys and nerves...heart disease, stroke and limb amputations" and are not willing to eat several fewer Calories per day.

Besides, the problem is not the caffeine.

It is the fat.

Nor is it certain that cutting back on the caffeine will make a difference.

"A number of studies have provided various results about the health effects of caffeine."

What is known is the too fat part.

And that fat people are unwilling to change to save their lives or their children's lives.
