Do Big Breasts Up Diabetes Risk?

You are what you research - boobs.

"It might be seen as a vindication for small-breasted women everywhere.

After suffering through decades of bra-cup envy, those with diminutive décolletages in their late teens and early 20s may enjoy a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life than their fuller-chested counterparts — or at least, that's what a new study suggests."

Could it possibly be anything else?

"But many doctors caution that the conclusions of this new research may have more to do with obesity — and therefore bigger breasts — than they do with breast size alone...

'In reality, obesity is a major determinant of risk for diabetes,' said Dr. Lewis Kuller, professor and chair in the department of epidemiology at the University of Pittsburgh. 'Breast size, generally, is highly correlated with body size and body fatness, since what you're storing in the breast is mainly fat tissue.'

And in light of this, Kuller said, breast size may simply tell us something we already know about diabetes risk.

'It's not like we don't already have a measure for how fat someone is,' he added. 'You can tell just by looking in the mirror. You're not gaining some new knowledge from evaluating your breast size 20 years ago that you couldn't already predict just by looking in the mirror.'"

So why do a study like this?

Possible reasons - here are two:

1. Perversion - a possible result is "...recommending that doctors begin to examine a young woman's breast size as a possible indicator of future diabetes risk." The next step is to subdivide young women into distinct cohorts like cheerleaders and non-cheerleaders.

2. Money - since the criminals in sick care are malpracticing already by surgerizing kids for obesity (a form of child abuse) and falsely claiming that surgery is the cure for the consequences of overweight/obesity (when it is really the weight reduction), the new procedure of mammosuction cannot be far behind. In recommending the procedure, the sick care industry will ignore the fact that people have been sucking on breasts for years. This will set up a new research path. Conservative activists will demand the establishment of research centers for breast suction will be performed by paid volunteers.

Which brings us back to the first possible reason.
