Gaining

Should diabetes be a concern for a young gainer?

Fatty foods actually have far more calories than sweet foods.

1g fat = 9 cal
1g sugar = 4 cal

No need to slam soda, cakes and sweets.

Even just carrying more body weight (esp belly fat) can lead to the development of diabetes, regardless of whether or not you try to eat healthy.

I used to assume one could just avoid sweets and eat more healthy fats to gain in order to avoid getting diabetes, but higher fat levels in the blood interferes with glucose transport and can actually cause insulin resistance.
