Why are thin people getting Diabetes?

A young, fit corporate executive asked me this last week.

→ BMI? 22

→ Waist? Perfectly fine

→ Diabetes? YES for 2 years

→ Triglycerides? 350+

→ Liver fat? Present

→ Family oil use? 5 liters/month for 4 people = 8 teaspoons oil/day/person!

Wait, what?

Yes, this is the reality for many slim diabetics in India.

They’re confused, & Frustrated.

But the truth is → Diabetes reversal isn’t always about weight loss.

It’s about metabolic fat where it’s stored and how much of it your organs can handle.

Even a few grams of excess fat in your pancreas (which only weighs 100g) or liver can lead to serious insulin resistance.

So, what can you do?

↳ Get a blood test (Triglycerides, SGPT, FBS, HbA1c)

↳ Do a liver sonography

↳ Check your muscle & fat ratio with a body composition scan

These 3 steps will reveal the truth behind “thin” diabetes. Because you can be slim and metabolically unhealthy.

And yes Reversal is possible even without losing weight. But only when we stop equating Health with Size.
