Diabetes Self Management reports a new discovery scientists have made regarding Type 2 Diabetes. The region of the brain, the hypothalamus, that controls appetite and body weight, is affected in part by the microglia, which encourages food intake. Scientists have realized that when too much saturated fats will cause excess fats to build up around these cells, causing inflammation and short circuiting the correct stimuli. It then becomes a vicious cycle that feeds itself. There is still more research to be done but this discovery is a good start.<\/p>\n
