More specific?: What would you like to know about diabetes? There are two main types, type 1, usually starting during childhood and due to a deficiency of Insulin from the start, and type 2, which starts as resistance to Insulin and then gradually becomes also a deficiency of insulin. Type 2 is more associated with obesity, a lack of exercise, and a poor diet.
