directly linked with the syndrome or is it just due to the obesity?

( Mr. Tea 'ulmmm'/'mmneurgh', Wed 6 Jul 2005, 16:51, archived)

it's directly linked
or rather there is a greater prevalance of diabetes mellitus (non-porky diabetes) in mongs

How bad is yours?
Insulin or diet controlled?
( Fenris temporary Lazarus, Wed 6 Jul 2005, 16:54, archived)

insulin
lots and lots of lovely lovely insulin

(it's not "bad" ... I can do pretty much anything ... I'm just slightly more conscious of my mortality and the fact that if I don't get hit by a bus then I'll go blind and have my legs chopped off at some point)

(oh ... and I have to stick needles in myself fifty times a week)
( Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Wed 6 Jul 2005, 16:58, archived)

Addicts are so fucking selfish. I suppose the NHS pays for all this?
People really should think twice before trying insulin; once you're hooked you're on it for life.

( Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Wed 6 Jul 2005, 17:13, archived)

Serious answer
is that it's one of the symptoms of the chromosomal disorder; it also makes them happier than normal. Depression is practically unheard of.

B3ta/talk answer - it's because they steal all the jelly and custard from the other kids at the party.

A part of the condition is a tendency to be slightly overweight
However, the condition also makes the face appear rounder - giving the impression of being more overweight than they actually are.

Some people with mild Downs Syndrome do take pride in their appearance and join gyms/partake in excercise and, as a consequence are built like brick shit houses.
