Dagko ug Totoy Increases Risk of Diabetes?

Philippine Daily Inquirer

Reviewing articles for the November issue of H&L (Health & Lifestyle) magazine, I came across this short summary of a 2008 Canadian study suggesting that women, who recalled having larger breasts at the age of 20, had higher chances of developing diabetes by the age of 35.

After all the fixation on bra-cup size and insecurity of those with undersized décolletages, being voluptuous with larger breasts may have its downside, I thought as I tried to get more details of the study. This finding may suggest that breast size could be a new marker for women most likely to develop diabetes; hence, screening young women for breast size could help identify those at future risk.

It is fairly well established that men and women with more abdominal or so-called visceral fats, as indicated by a bigger waistline (more than 36 inches for men and more than 33 inches in women) have a higher risk for diabetes. Although breast tissue is also fat tissue, does increase in its volume also predispose a woman to diabetes? This can make a lot of well-endowed women rush to their cosmetic surgeons and request for a breast reduction surgery. But analyzing the data, women with fuller chests need not panic yet. The findings do not seem to be so convincing at this point.

i feel like this article holds a bit of prejudice on the vivacious women with natural endowments. In anycase, if a woman who is in danger of hyperglycemia & fears of pre-diabetes, just ask the physician to prescribe oral hypoglycemics (metformin, sulfonylureas) as prophylaxis. Let her 'totoy' be in peace, am sure, it is very much appreciated by her lover.

Dr. Castillo might want to clarify to the lay population that 'diabetes' involves a plethora of types, some of which hold no bearing to size of person, let alone breast shape, size.

In cases of Diabetes Mellitus; there are 2 types:
1. IDDM (insulin dependent diabetes mellitus)--which is a total lack of pancreatic b-cells, which is a complete lack of insulin, is a genetic case (chromosomal association in the level of HLA-DQ). Size, shape of person does not matter. One can be extremely athletic and toned, and still have this condition.
2. NIDDM (Non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus)-- dependent on size, and family history is a strong predictor

In cases of Diabetes Insipidus; there again are 2 types:
1. Central DI
2. Nephrogenic DI

In all these cases of DI, size is not a factor. Because DI is dependent on the kidney's ability to respond to ADH (anti-diuretic hormone; vasopressin) or not.

To all the large-breasted women out there, don't be scared. Your totoy is not bad for you at all. :)


Peace.
