Diabetes
Diabetes is caused when the body does not produce or properly use insulin, a hormone needed to convert sugar, starches, and other foods to energy. Causes are not known, but appear to be both genetic and environmental, with being overweight and not getting exercise being contributing factors. This category is for questions about Diabetes, including Type 1, Type 2, Gestational, and Pre-diabetes, and all questions related to them.
