"Type 1 - It is usually found in normal or underweight younger people. Type 1 diabetics usually inject insulin so that blood sugar can be delivered to the body's cells. Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) levels can lead to dizziness, weakness and fainting. It is disturbing that more cases are happening where young people are beginning to have Type 2 diabetes also (due to obesity and lack of exercise)!"
Are you serious?? Type 1 doesn't turn into Type 2 for any reason. They are two completely different conditions. Type 1 is an autoimmune disease that can affect people of any age (although it is more common with children), and any body type. Type ones do not produce insulin. It has NOTHING to do with diet, exercise, or anything else that is within the control of the individual. A T1 must ALWAYS inject insulin or they risk hyperglycemia.
