Answer 3

Twenty million people in this country have diabetes. Roughly 2 million are type 1, 12 million type 2, about 6 million not diagnosed. Most of the non-diagnosed are type 2's. Assuming that type 2's are better off because they do not need insulin is wrong. Many type 2's have blood sugar levels in the 200's for long extended periods and face complications later in life, yet think because they are not on insulin they have less to worry about. A well controlled type 1 is better off than a type 2 who thinks they are controlled but are not.

Answer 4

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.

Answer 5

Truthfully, it depends on the person. Alot of times people who have type II diabetes are overweight and not inclined to care about their health to start with. My mother works in heart surgery and amputations and can tell you about many a type II diabetic who ignored all medical advice and payed for it big time. That's not to put down all type II diabetics, as I know many who have risen to the challenge and turned their health around.

With the better insulins, pumps, more accurate glucose meters, and diet plans, it is not as hard to control type I diabetes as it once was. My dad and I are both type I, and he has told me several times how he wishes the methods of today had been in place when he was diagnosed in the early 70s.

I truthfully think insulin injection would be the best choice for many type II diabetics.

But once again, it depends on how you control it. I sometimes take 5 shots every day, but my last A1C was 6.8. Is that worse than a type II diabetic who takes metformin and has an A1C of 8?

Answer 6

They are both "worse" because there is no cure for this illness. Type 2 may not be so bad as type one in that with that one you only have to take pills, you don't have to inject insulin all the time, and you don't have to have such a tight, every day control, though you must always be careful, diabetes being a very sneaky and nasty enemy.

Answer 7

Type 1 is also known as juvenile or early onset diabetes and requires treatment with insulin injections. Type 2 is late onset diabetes which is usually determined by life style e..g. being overweight, lack of exercise. So, type 1 is definitely the wort of the two - also type 2 can be more easily controlled with diet etc and can eventually disappear altogether.

Answer 9

Type one diabetes is worse than Type two.
In case of type 1, Pancreas, which produces Insulin, stops functioning completely. So you have to supply Insulin to the body from outside.That means so many needles or insulin shots every day, which is really painful and it affects one's normal life.
Whereas in case of Type 2 Diabetes, pancreas does not produce Insulin in sufficient quantities.So you have to either reduce your sugar intake, burn the excess calories through exercise or take some oral Hypoglycemic medicines. In this case you can lead normal life with some moderation,exercise and medicines.

Answer 10

It depends how you look at it - Type 2 is easier to control than Type 1, but if you have it you can't blame it on family genes; it's mostly your own fault that you got it in the first place. Type 1 is a pain to control, but you can blame it almost entirely on your family history, and, scientists are much closer to finding a cure for it.

Answer 11

Type 3 is the worst. Then comes Type 2, and finally Type 1.
