How Nick Jonas Turned Type 1 Diabetes Into An Opportunity To Help Others – Legends Report
In type 2, the pancreas is unable to produce enough insulin, or the insulin produced does not work properly.
Some causes can put at risk of type 2 such as family history, ethnicity, being overweight or obese and diet.
Symptoms can be easily missed as they appear slowly.
Management
A big difference between the two is that type 1 isn’t affected by your lifestyle including your weight. That means you can’t change your risk of developing type 1 by lifestyle changes. People up to the age of 40 are more likely to be diagnosed with it, especially children. Most children with diabetes have type 1.
