A study done at the Kommunehospitalet in Copenhagen, Denmark shows
that it's not only the type of food eaten that influences the
development of diabetes, but also eating patterns. This study looked
at three groups of BB rats. Group 1 served as control and included 77
animals, 79% became diabetic. In groups 2 and 3, after weaning, food
but not water was withdrawn from the animals: 24 h twice a week in
group 2; 24 h every second day in group 3. Group 2 included 40 BB
rats, 50% (p < 0.004) became diabetic. Group 3 included 44 BB rats,
52% (p < 0.01) became diabetic. This abstract is available at:

Wouldnt this be like yo-yo dieting? They always say thats bad and you should
eat frequent small meals so youre never too hungry. Hmm....
