As a newbie type 2 I 'm still learning about the disease and have been musing about it's cause.
I've read the statement that eating a lot of sugar doesn't give you diabetes, but something got me thinking about the body's tendency to wear out if exposed to repetitive misuse.
I was wondering whether eating too much sugar when young caused my pancreas to work overtime and whether my current insulin inefficiency was caused by the 'wearing out' of my islets.
Could it be that they got overused and produce low quality/quantity insulin now simply because i ate too many sweets as a kid?
