That is only part of the story. The other part is that there is  thought to be 
a genetic predisposition among Indians to collect abdominal fat (thin arms, 
pot belly) - and develop something called syndrome X (aka metabolic syndrome 
X) - with Insulin resistance. Add short stature  to that and an association of 
that with small sized coronary arteries that clog up sooner - and you have 
Indians. Popping off at short notice from coronary artery disease.


Cheers
