There are two types of diabetes - type 1 and type 2 diabetes. In type 1 diabetes, the formation of insulin decreases or the production of insulin is stopped, and it can be controlled to a great extent. While people with type 2 diabetes have a high level of blood sugar, which is very difficult to control. Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are not the same, there is a lot of difference between these two.

  1. Type 1 diabetes

In this type of diabetes, the beta cells of the pancreas are completely destroyed and thus it is not possible to make insulin. It is caused by genetic, auto-immune and some viral infections, due to which only beta cells are completely destroyed in childhood. This disease is usually seen in a state of less than 12 to 25 years. Type 1 diabetes is more in Sweden and Finland. According to the Health Ministry, only 1% to 2% of cases in India have type 1 diabetes problems.

  1. Type 2 diabetes

People with type 2 diabetes have a high level of blood sugar, which is very difficult to control. In this situation, the sufferer feels more thirsty, frequent urination and frequent hunger problems. It can happen to anyone, but it is seen more in children. In type 2 diabetes, the body is unable to use insulin properly.
