William C. Hsu, M.D., Vice President of International Programs at Joslin Diabetes Center, served as the lead author of a position paper, which encouraged the American Diabetes Association to change their screening guidelines for Asian Americans and #type2 #diabetes. In light of this paper and the fact that Asian Americans are more at risk for developing type 2 diabetes at a lower #BMI, the ADA now recommends Asian Americans be screened for type 2 diabetes at a BMI of 23, which is technically a healthy BMI level.
