How easily and how severely you get Type II is however also influenced by genetics.

Yes, By no means did I mean to say that getting Type II is always "the person's own fault". Not at all!

I included "other medical conditions" which includes "genetics" too. But I guess that was not entirely clear. I've edited my comment to point that out more clearly.

Sorry if I hurt anyone, it was not intended!

Indeed, I've spent the last few years trying to significantly improve my lifestyle to decrease the chance my maternal line's 100% record of Type II diabetes ends before it gets to me.
