Type 1 Diabetes: The pancreas does not produce any insulin. It is more rare than Type II Diabetes. It has no cure, but can be managed by daily insulin shots.

Type 2 Diabetes: Type II Diabetes occurs when the body's cells become resistant to insulin. Obesity is a major factor contributing to Type II Diabetes. Obese people's pancreas need to produce more insulin to promote the body's cells to uptake glucose. Type II Diabetes is sometimes hereditary. It can be prevented by staying active, eating a diet high in fiber (fiber binds with nutrients and prevents blood glucose surges and rebounds), and weight management.

There are two types of diabetes;

Type 1 Diabetes - aka Juvenile Onset

T1 diabetes is diagnosed to children, young adolescents, and in rare cases adults. Hence it's name, Juvenile Onset Diabetes, or Juvenile diabetes for short.

In a T1 diabetic, the immune system attacks the pancreatic cells that produce insulin - thus "killing" that function of the pancreas completely. Therefore a T1 diabetic must always take insulin and can never go off of insulin.


Type 2 Diabetes - aka Adult Onset

T2 diabetes is most commonly diagnosed to adults and the elderly, however it can be dianosed in children. It is also very commonly diagnosed to those individuals who are overweight, and/or have a strong history of T2 diabetes in their family.

In a T2 diabetic, their pancreas still produces insulin, however their pancreas does not produce enough to support their body weight. Or due to hereditary reasons, the pancreas is prone to petering out it's insulin efficiency. Or T2 diabetes can also be diagnosed when someone has developed a resistance to the insulin that their body produces.

A T2 diabetic, in some cases can "cure" their diabetes through dieting and exercise. If they can maintain a healthy weight, in a lot of cases their pancreas function returns to "normal" levels.

A Type 2 diabetic can be treated with certain medications given orally, such as diamicron, metformin. And in some severe cases, they do need to take insulin injections.


So, no at the moment there is no cure. However, they are working on it and trying many different treatments. I think T1 diabetics would be happy just to have a way around injections (eg. have an inhaler instead).

It can be managed. It can also be a battle. It's not terminal, but how you manage your diabetes can affect your quality of life. I never listened to my doctors, and now I can no longer walk properly - I'm only 21. Other problems are blindness, kidney failure, limb amputation, amoungst other things.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.

Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

There are a number of types of diabetes but I'm presuming you mean diabetes mellitus types 1 & 2. Diabetes is an inability to produce sufficient insulin or to produce any at all. It can also be that the body is resistant to the insulin produced. It can be hereditary and acquired. It would take too long to go into detail about how excess glucose affects the blood and many organs in the body. Go to a website for that.

Diabetes in and of itself isn't terminal but the effects of it can shorten one's life. It cannot be cured and can only be managed by daily glucose monitoring, diet and exercise, balancing glucose-exercise-insulin, antidiabetic medications (for non-insulin dependent diabetics), daily foot care and by diabetes education.

I'm afraid the answers to your questions cover too much ground and I cannot be complete or detailed or I will take up far too much space.

Diabetes has to do with insulin levels in the blood. My Grandmother had diabetes and she managed it by testing her levels every day, watching her diet, and taking insulin. She lived to be over 70 years old.
