It seems that many people confuse between T1 and T2 diabetes, so I'll do my best to explain the difference.
People who suffer from Type 1 diabetes (also knows as T1 diabetes), do not produce enough insulin, or don't produce insulin at all, and as a result have problems in using the carbs they eat. Such people must inject insulin in order to keep themselves a live.

Written by Chad Mangrum
People with Type 1 diabetes are not able to produce insulin. Type 1 usually occurs before the age of 30, but could happen at any age. Type 1 can be caused by genetics. The origins of Type 1 are not understood completely, yet there are several theories. But all of the possible causes still have the same end result: The pancreas produces very little or no insulin anymore.
