ADA: Tight Glucose Control No Help for Cardiovascular Risk in Type 2 Diabetes

Oops.
"Intensive glucose lowering strategies reduce nephropathy but not major cardiovascular outcomes for patients with type 2 diabetes, according to results of the largest tight-control randomized trial to date."
Type 2 diabetes is fat person diabetes.

Are they sure it does not work?
"W'ith respect to the fundamental question of the effect of glycemic control on macrovascular complications, there should be no misunderstanding that the ADVANCE trial had clearly negative results,' said William T. Cefalu, M.D., of Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, in an accompanying editorial."
Apparently.

So maybe you should hedge your bets and just lose the weight.
