Unhealthy food choices in general can help cause obesity which increases one’s risk, as does age; still largely hereditary. How do I know? My maternal grandmother was type 1 diabetic, my mother was T2, myself and all three of my siblings are T2. It’s part of the counseling after your diagnosis. It’s probably better to listen to health care professionals instead of folks on the internet.
I mean, unless it’s decorated, cakes are fairly cheap (especially if you compare it to other foods by calories per dollar)
I’d say the biggest thing stopping most people from doing this regularly is a desire to not get type 2 diabetes lol
I’d argue the biggest thing stopping most people from doing this is laziness. Which is great.
Even getting to the store to buy a cake is the only way we do it, making one is too much work (for casual bored cake consumption).
Probably purely the fact that when we go to the store we don’t have store bought cake on the mind, i we don’t buy it.
But I only want to eat tasty cakes and these are expensive.
Eating sugar doesn’t give anyone T2 diabetes. It’s largely a hereditary metabolic disease.
You’re definitely thinking of T1, or health class and the Internet lied to me all my life. Come to think of it…
But for sure you can get T2 from making unhealthy choices with sugar consumption.
