    If you've done your homework insulin can be safe. IMO there is a greater risk of developing diabetes from HGH use than Insulin. Always cycle slin 4 weeks on / 4 weeks off and you will minimize the risk

    No one knows the definitive answer to that question. There have been no studies to prove so but who knows. Follow Polska and cycle it if you have fear of the possibility.

    My doctor told me muscles sop up sugar in your blood like a sponge. I was impressed when Arnold Schwarzenneger admitted that bodybuilding wasn't the healthiest thing you could do to your body. But I think most type II diabetes victims sit around and eat junk food all day.

    No you won't develop diabetes... Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disorder characterized by beta cell destruction (those in the pancreas that secrete insulin ), they are genetically susceptible and its onset if usually at a younger age which is why it used to be called juvenile. Type 2 is due to resistance to endogenous insulin and occurs with those who have family history, over the age of 40. If you are obese, inactive, have hypertension and high triglyceride levels you are at risk for developing Type 2. But just taking it wont cause it, there has to be a lot of other factors.
