Correct Answer
A. 80%Explanation
80% of Type 2 (Adult-Onset) Diabetes patients are overweight. This means that a majority of individuals diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes are carrying excess weight. This correlation between weight and Type 2 Diabetes is well-documented, as obesity is a significant risk factor for developing the condition. The excess weight puts strain on the body's ability to properly regulate blood sugar levels, leading to insulin resistance and the development of diabetes. Therefore, it is crucial for individuals with Type 2 Diabetes to manage their weight through a combination of healthy eating, regular physical activity, and medical treatment.Rate this question:
