What is diabetes?
Diabetes is a serious medical condition that causes the amount of sugar in your blood to become too high. This sugar is what your body burns for fuel, and so it needs a hormone named insulin to transfer that sugar from your blood into the cells of your muscles and organs.
When your body cannot use its insulin well or even create enough insulin, that is when the sugar you get from your food stays in your blood, which starves your cells of energy.
What is the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes?
Young adults and children get diagnosed with Type I diabetes, which remains with the individual for life. People with type 1 diabetes do not produce insulin. Type 2 diabetes, typically, gets diagnosed in adulthood. It can be treated and go into remission. People with type 2 diabetes do not respond to insulin as well as they should and subsequently, may not make enough insulin.
