A member asked:
Is type 2 diabetes always treated with insulin? how long does it take to effect the body if your showing no symptoms
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Type 2 diabetes: Type 2 diabetes is driven by insulin resistance where the cells in your body no longer respond well to the insulin your body produces. It is usually associated with excessive body fat and eating too many processed food. The ideal solution is to reverse type 2 diabetes through dieting, intermittent fasting and ketogenic diets. Exercise is also very helpful. Insulin is a last resort treatment.
