How can people ingest large amounts of sugar (multiple cans of soda, etc), and still not get diabetes?

Question

As the title states, how can people ingest large amounts of sugar from sources and still not get diabetes? Does When you ingest that sugar matter? Like, 39g in the morning, 39g at night (39g being a regular can of coke)?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Sugar doesn’t cause diabetes. Insulin resistance leads to diabetes. Usually that is caused by fat in the blood blocking cells insulin receptors. This leads to overwork of the pancreas and eventual failure.
