If you've been diagnosed with pre-diabetes or are at risk, making lifestyle changes can help manage your blood sugar levels and prevent the progression to Type 2 diabetes.
Types of Diabetes • Type 1 diabetes • Type 2 diabetes
Causes of diabetes • Type 1 diabetes is caused by the malfunction of antibodies that kill insulin cells in the pancreas instead of targeting foreign bacteria or viruses. This usually happens in children. • Type 2 diabetes is caused when the insulin cells do not perform their function of transporting glucose.
Symptoms of diabetes • With type 1, there is no insulin secretion. Usually occurs in early childhood. • With type 2, there is insulin secretion but high levels of glucose in the blood. Usually occurs in adults.
