No one is getting diabetes because of eating cereal for breakfast unless they eat the whole box in one sitting. You do not need an extreme low carb diet to live long.Most old people live on a diet of cookies, candy, ice cream and donuts.

Not this old person. Where did you get the idea that this is what old people eat?

I've known many old people. Family, neighbors, church people, etc. Do you actually think people in their 80's and 90's are all eating steamed vegetables and skinless chicken breasts?

Then you should publish a peer reviewed study based on your very scientific observational data.  Look around.  There is an increasing worldwide epidemic of obesity and type 2 diabetes, including Lean Diabetes, even in countries like China and India.  It's no longer First World problem.

Did I say old people never eat crap or that all old people eat healthily? What I wrote was that I am old, and I eat healthily... this is a lifestyle choice and not something that automatically happens as we age. I also eat considerably smaller portions than I did when I was younger and more active therefore burning more calories. I weigh the same today at 79 years of age as I did when I was in my late teens. My overall fat percentage is 10% and my visceral fat percentages is slightly lower than that.

Again, not talking about fat obese people. You can eat a low to medium calorie diet eating anything and not grow to obesity.

Eating This One Thing Regularly Is One of the Easiest Ways to Get Diabetes

The #1 Food That Causes Diabetes, According to Endocrinologists

All of the obesity specialists we spoke with unanimously agreed that ingesting refined sugar regularly can increase your chances of getting diabetes, a chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces.

"The excessive consumption of sugary foods and beverages can lead to insulin resistance, a key factor in the development of diabetes," explains Dr. Maria Teresa Anton, MD, an endocrinologist and educator at Pritikin Longevity Center. "But cutting down on added sugars is a simple yet powerful step in managing diabetes risk," she says.

Dr. Rekha Kumar, MD, an endocrinologist and the Chief Medical Officer of Found agrees, especially when it comes to sugar-sweetened beverages like fruit juice and soda. "They are high in calories and sugar, often fructose, which is a version of sugar that leads to insulin resistance," she says, referring to the precursor state to diabetes.

While sipping sugary drinks every once in a while isn't the worst thing in the world for a moderately healthy individual, cracking open a can of Mountain Dew is not something you want to get into the habit of doing—especially if your family has a history of diabetes.

"Regularly indulging in sugary treats or high-carbohydrate foods can spike blood sugar levels, placing increased stress on the body's insulin response," says Dr. Anton, adding that moderation is key, as is being mindful of portion sizes. Measuring your food, drinking a large glass of water before meals and chewing slowly are a few helpful ways to stop overeating.
