AB  - OBJECTIVE: To prospectively assess the relationship between overweight/obesity 
      and incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among Mexicans aged 50+, 
      assessing effects of age, genetic predisposition, education, physical activity, 
      and place of residence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Mexican Health and Aging Study 
      (MHAS) was used to prospectively follow respondents free of diabetes in 2001 who 
      became diabetic by 2012. Multivariate random effects logistic regression was used 
      to assess covariates effects on the incidence of T2DM. RESULTS: Obese or 
      overweight individuals at baseline (2001) were about 3 and 2 times, respectively, 
      significantly more likely to become diabetic by 2012. Genetic predisposition 
      increases the risk of diabetes by about three times compared to those with no 
      family history of diabetes. CONCLUSION: Overweight/obesity and genetic 
      predisposition are the primary drivers of diabetes incidence among Mexican older 
      adults. Reducing body weight and having access to health care may amel iorate the 
      disease burden of T2DM.
