Theories about diabetes is a little confusing, there are so many questions marks
which makes me wonder about treatment. How many types of diabetes are there? :crazy:
 
I've no idea lots!

high glucose levels are caused by two things.
insulin deficiency
Insulin resistance with not enough insulin production to compensate for the resistance
or a mixture of the 2!
You will mainly read of T1, T2 and gestational diabetes.
but there are several other rarer causes see
