Diabetes is a chronic and fatal disease in which there are above normal levels of glucose in the bloodstream. ...
There are two main types of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is also called "insulin-dependent" diabetes. ... In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas does not produce enough insulin. ...
The second type of diabetes is type 2 diabetes, or "non-insulin dependent" diabetes. ... Some of the symptoms of type 2 diabetes are thirst, excessive urination, weight loss, fatigue, blurred vision, frequent infections, tingling, and numbness. ...
Even though stress is a big factor in the development of diabetes, it is not an actual cause. In type 1 diabetes, the immune system accidentally destroys the
insulin-producing cells in the pancreas as if they were foreign invaders. This is called an auto-immune response and is the actual reason a person might get diabetes. ... Other factors linked to type 1 diabetes are genetics and viruses.
