Better to Start Metformin Early

Remarkable candor from Big Sick Care.

Type 2 diabetes is fat person diabetes.

For newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, waiting until lifestyle measures fail before starting metformin may jeopardize the long-term efficacy of the drug, a large clinical database analysis showed.

Simply put, the default position appears to be that "lifestyle measures" will fail when it comes to fat people caring enough about themselves to fix their self-induced Type 2 diabetes.

This is probably correct given that fatsos have developed Type 2 diabetes as a disease of choice, have demonstrated poor impulse control, i.e., self-control and get the rest of us to pay for their caloric irresponsibility.
