What is Diabetes?

Understanding diabetes
Over 2 million people in England are living with diabetes. Many more have the condition but don’t know it. Type 1 and type 2 are the most common forms. The cause of both types is different, but both result in too much glucose (sugar) in the blood.

Type 1 diabetes is caused by the body’s failure to produce insulin. Insulin is a hormone released by the pancreas to help control levels of sugar in the blood. It’s sometime called juvenile diabetes or early-onset diabetes because it usually appears before the age of 40.

Type 2 diabetes is caused by the body not producing enough insulin or not using what it produces effectively. It’s the most common form and accounts for around 90% of all diabetes.Asians and Afro-Caribbeans are prone to type 2 Diabetes complicated by a further danger factor of hypertension, which poses an additional risk.
