Obesity role in diabetics • Being overweight increases the chances of developing the common type of diabetes, type 2 diabetes. • In type 2 diabetes, the body makes enough insulin but the cells in the body have become resistant to the action of insulin • Overeating stresses the network inside of cells called endoplasmic reticulum (ER). When the ER has more nutrients to process than it can handle. • This translates to insulin resistance and to persistently high concentrations of the sugar glucose in the blood the person is diagnosed with type 2 diabetes
