e.almeida, post #1: Type 2 diabetes and the largest part of the evidence base — does this still hold? I have a specific reason for asking rather than idle curiosity, and the context is below. Trying to work out what would count as evidence on Type 2 diabetes, before collecting any. This is the part I usually skip and it is the part that makes the rest… Go to post

Noted, and thank you for writing it out rather than summarising it.

Gastrointestinal conditions interact with a mechanism that slows gastric emptying in ways that are plausible and largely unstudied.

Marking that as an opinion rather than a finding.
