[QUOTE="Sophie Michael, post: 488394, member: 96975"] People can get diabetes at any age. Type 1 and type 2 are the three main kinds. [URL='http://www.footsolutions.ca/problems/diabetes']Type 1 diabetes[/URL], formerly called juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is usually first diagnosed in children, teenagers, or young adults. With this form of diabetes, the beta cells of the pancreas no longer make insulin because the body's immune system has attacked and destroyed them. Treatment for type 1 diabetes includes taking insulin and possibly another injectable medicine, making wise food choices, being physically active, taking aspirin daily—for some—and controlling blood pressure and cholesterol. [URL='http://www.footsolutions.ca/problems/diabetes']Type 2 diabetes[/URL], formerly called adult-onset diabetes or noninsulin-dependent diabetes, is the most common form of diabetes. People can develop type 2 diabetes at any age—even during childhood. This form of diabetes usually begins with insulin resistance, a condition in which fat, muscle, and liver cells do not use insulin properly. At first, the pancreas keeps up with the added demand by producing more insulin. In time, however, it loses the ability to secrete enough insulin in response to meals. Being overweight and inactive increases the chances of developing type 2 diabetes. Treatment includes using diabetes medicines, making wise food choices, being physically active, taking aspirin daily—for some—and controlling blood pressure and cholesterol. Whatever type of diabetes you have, be aware of what you should or should not eat, monitor your glucose levels regularly and keep in touch with your doctor so that you can maintain your diabetes diet and stay healthy.
