I understand diabetes being linked/correlating more so with being over weight and not active.

But you’re telling me if someone is consuming say 150-200g of sugar a day (which isnt hard to do) it shouldnt be an issue? Lol
Careful, this will always be subjective. A lot of it comes down to genetics

As a black man Im not taking fitness or health advice from a non black person unless the study is specifically for black men.

Dudes repost all this hippy stuff that dosent take into account our genetic differences.

I hear ya, for example I'm pre-diabetic despite being active and eating a "clean" diet.

High blood pressure runs in my family, as with many African Americans, so we can't afford to be on that high sugar wave.

Hyperglycemia is usually a precursor for diabetes.

Hell its black people globaly. Lotta of the stuff that plagued AAs are now impacting blacks around the world since these Western companies are trying to get their products in front of them.

When I used to frequent bodybuilding.com id see dudes post their diets and it would be all red meat and little veggies lmfao

I used to test pre-diabetic, too. My CRP was also mid range. shyt made no sense at the time. Two months low fat, high carb with some B supplements and caffeine/coffee corrected it. The "In Defense of Low Fat" article I linked goes into detail about this approach, including human trials and degenerative diseases it fixed.

Just finished playing soccer after 3 weeks away.

Was pouring rain in DC plus 45 degree chills.

Still glad I got my game in. My body feels broken, but in a good way.
