Mr. Lybrate-user, diabetes mellitus is occurring either due to lack of insulin or resistance to its action or both in type 2 diabetes. In t1 there total absence of insulin due to destruction of beta cells which produce insulin. The other contributing factors mainly for t2 are overweight, inactivity and junk foods with aerated drinks. Treatment for t1 is taking insulin injections for life time. There is no option. For t2 there are oral antidiabetes drugs and also insulin injections. In addition regular exercise, diet control and maintaining normal weight are equally important. Thanks for the question.
