Extra weight around your waist means fat can build up around your organs, like your liver and pancreas. This can cause something called insulin resistance. So losing this weight could definetely help in controlling type 2 diabetes.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a PANCREATITIS MUTATION PANEL Test or Take a Urine Routine Test Test
