Message: <blockquote data-quote="ianf0ster" data-source="post: 2460999" data-attributes="member: 506169">Type 1's produce insufficient (usually approx 0 ) insulinT2's have Insulin Resistance such that whatever insulin they  produce (even heroic quantities) is insufficient.Various studies in various countries use slightly different definitions of  T2D remission . For example in the UK my HbA1C 0of 37 on zero diabetes meds means I qualify as in remission. However if I lived in the USA I would still be considered as pre-diabetic because in the UK the cut-off is an HbA1C of 6.0% (in old money) where in the USA it is at 5.7%.This may explain why it's claimed that 1/3rd of US adults have either Diabetes or pre-diabetes.</blockquote>
