In type 1 your body does not produce any insulin necessary for prosessing food properly. Type 2 some insulin is produced, but not enough. Type 1 is considered worse because it attacks innocent children and their loved ones.

Type 1- They no longer produce insulin. They will have to take insulin shots for every. There is no cure right now.
Type 2- They still produce insulin but they either produce to little or they cells have become “resctiance” to insulin. Pills can be taken to reduce this resitance and insulin shots are not always needed. It can be controlled by healthy eating and exersize.
Type 2 can be treated with proper diet, medication, and exercise, because your body produces some insulin.
Type 1 can only be treated with insulin injections because your pancreas does not produce any insulin at all. ————————
Type 1 – it’s a disease where your body attacks itself.
Basically, your body gets an infection, and confuses your pancreas cells for an invader, and kills them off.
This means you cannot make any insulin whatsoever.
It is treated by life-long insulin, through injections or pumps.
Because our immune system is screwed, we are a lot more susceptible for infections, and colds / flu can be very dangerous because of our crazy immune system.
Type 2 – Your body, for many different reasons, cannot produce enough insulin.
Either because of obesity, a high carb diet, the body becoming resistant to insulin, or other reasons, it cannot produce enough to deal with all the sugar.
This can be treated by diet, exercise, drugs that encourage the pancreas to make more, drugs that help the body use insulin, or insulin itself.
They are very different problems, with basically the same result.
Your body cannot use the sugar it has.
Your body needs insulin to use the sugar (fuel) in your cells.
Otherwise the sugar stays in our blood, doesn’t get used. This causes the cells to run out of fuel and die.
Type One is juvenile diabetes. There is no reason of why it is caused, but some doctors think sicknesses can cause it, if it is a really intense and rough sickness. Type one is difficult on ones body, it effects eyes, kidneys, and how fast one can heal.
I cant answer well about type 2 other then that obesity causes it.
There is also gestational diabetes, double diabetes, and someone can be diabetic, hypoglycemic, or hyperglycemic.
