My T2D was caused by an imbalance with my thyroid. As soon as my thyroid was corrected, the T2D went into remission. I have to be monitored for both conditions now, but I haven't been insulin-dependent in 7 years, and both thyroid and T2D have been classified as 'in remission' for nearly 3 years. I have not needed to change my diet significantly since I was diagnosed 8 years ago and my A1cs have been in the 5.1 - 5.7 range for 7 years. It can absolutely be genetic.

I read about this recently: It has to do with the cultural codification in the Korean language that incorporates a social hierarchy. Basically, in Korean, warnings were "too polite" in deference to social status and did not (could not) adequately convey situational urgency they same way English can. It was the difference of saying, "Captain, that mountain looks rather close," and "There's a mountain in our path. We're going to crash." https://www.instagram.com/reels/C8LUkpHs9W7/
