Losing the VAT should keep you from ever having type-2 diabetes:
"The only way to reverse/cure type-2 diabetes is by losing the VAT:"
All humans have vat, including the poster. It is normal and plays an important role in metabolism. As with many things it is when vat is in excess of the normal range does it pose a potential problem.
Vat is not alone the cause nor the lack of same the "cure" of diabetes.
The many reasons why the poster should think so and the flaws of fact and logic it presents have in past been provided him in detail.
Ignore it. Lose weight and vat will also be reduced. Exercise first and selectively reduces excess vat before weight loss and in combination works best.
There is at present no '"cure" for diabetes, one can only at best reverse symptoms with the underlying pathology remaining.

You mean, if I lose weight then I pay less tax?
