It's mostly indians/asians who fall into this group (indians around 5x more susceptible than europeans, chinese around 3x). Asians are more predisposed to putting on visceral fat at lower BMI than europeans. The other big factor is activity/exercise (insulin isnt the only way to bring down blood glucose, physical activity does too). Sedentary lean T2D sufferers have higher mortality than overweight T2D who are active. So stay active people!
