Type 1 Diabetes is a auto-immune disorder and is insulin-dependent. this is usually diagnosed in children. The myth about this is it occurs during adolosence but in reality it can occur much earlier, even as an infant. Type II diabetes is diagnosed more in adults and is related to lifestyle, family history, etc. and is managed and controlled with medication, diet and exercise.
