Not just sugar, and they do routinely test for type 2 now whereas in the past they didn't unless there were problems, and by the time problems started, it meant the person had probably had it for many years before being diagnosed.

My aunt Jean developed diabetes (juvenile onset) in the early 1940's. Not much was known about the treatment of the disease at the time. Insulin shots weren't widely understood. Diabetes rendered her legally blind (she could make out shapes, that's about it) when she was still a very young woman. Ah, but she was amazing. Despite her disability she knew her way around the kitchen! She was a marvelous cook. She also did ceramics and was a wiz at refinishing furniture. Years went by. She'd had to have surgery for cataracts. The last time she pretty much told her doctor it was stupid to keep cutting on her eyes; she still couldn't see so what was the point? He said ah, but you don't understand! There's this new procedure that involves lasers... I'll never forget the day she called me up and exclaimed, "Jill! I can SEE!" OMG. Can you imagine being able to see again after forty-something years?! She said, "Your uncle Howard lied to me. He always told me I was beautiful!" LOL Sadly, she was only able to enjoy the gift of sight for a short time. She died of a heart attack six months later. ![]() Jill |

Modern analyses of historical figures show that it is pretty certain that both Bach and Handel died from diabetes and at their age it would have been Type 2. Graham |

A lot less refined carbs, for starters. |
