Yes, only indrectly, weight loss causes often an improvement in all
measures of diabetes and related syndromes. Because it decreases blood
glucose it removes some cause of the blood vessel stiffening and related
disfunctions of high blood pressure. Directly it affects the glucose
output of the liver as a contribution to blood glucose levels and by
making body cells less resistant to insulin and thus removing glucose more
quickly from the blood. It is also thought to have some small positive
effect on what is known as glycation, which is an adverse combination of
glucose with proteins.
