Diabetes: Types and its Complications

Type 1 diabetes: It is usually caused by auto-immune reaction whereas the body’s defense system attacks the cells that produce insulin. The main reason for this is not fully understood. People with type 1 diabetes produce very less insulin. People with this form of diabetes need injection of the insulin every day in order to control the glucose levels in their blood.

Type 2 diabetes: It is used to be called non-insulin adult-onset type of diabetes, and this accounts for at least 90% of cases. It is characterized by relative insulin resistance and insulin deficiency, either of which may be present at the time diabetes is recognized. People with this type of diabetes can initially manage their condition through exercise and diet.
