Am I at risk for diabetes?
Hello All,
My father has type 2 diabetes. Is diabetes hereditary? A little background of my health. I exercise, but sometimes i tend to eat junk food ( McDonalds, etc.) and sometimes high carb foods. I know these aren't good foods at all, but i enjoy salty and sugary foods, but idon't eat them all the time. My intake is like between once or twice a week. So am i at risk?

Keep exercising, and do you best to eat right. It's not a guarantee you'll get it, just because your father has it. ---------------------------------

You have an increased risk if your father has it, but that's no guarantee you will get it. You exercise and that's really good, and I would guess that you aren't overweight which is also good.
Try and avoid too many sugary foods and eat more fruit and veg instead. Although, once or twice a week isn't so bad.
