[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Your friend's daughter definitely has Type 1, previously aka juvenile diabetes. It is VERY different from Type 2, is not caused by eating too much food or eating wrong food, or not moving enough. In fact, the cause (or, probably, causes) are still unknown. [/quote] Riiight. That’s what you are led to believe. I wonder then why T1 diabetes rates have been steadily rising at the same time with T2 diabetes? Maybe, and I’m just throwing it out there, maybe diseases of endocrine system as well as other diseases do have something to do with what you eat.[/quote] Even if food is causing T1 diabetes in some way, it is certainly absolutely different from the mechanisms that cause T2.[/quote] DP. You're defensively saying that 1 is autoimmune and that T2 is caused by bad diet. That's wrong. They're both genetic and they're both treated similarly. There's no division on the diabetes boards. There shouldn't be here either.[/quote] This is the most ignorant and ridiculous thing I heard. Especially since it is soooo easy to verify and disprove. Please educate yourself. https://www.diabetes.org.uk/diabetes-the-basics/differences-between-type-1-and-type-2-diabetes T1 is autoimmune, rarely genetic and is not affected by lifestyle. T2 is largely genetic but also due to a lifestyle choices. But if you think 'this is what I was led to believe'... No one will persuade you, you are just a science denier.[/quote] Yes, T1 is genetic, as is T2. And while T1 is not triggered by lifestyle, both are treated by lifestyle changes. If your DC is diabetic, please spend time on the various diabetes boards. Over time, you'll learn a lot. [/quote] No, no and no. What you are writing is all utter BS, lol )))) You are the one who has to learn some very basic things. Oh, and preferably not through boards, there may be people just as ignorant as you. Are you also an anti vaxer incidentally? Into wild conspiracy theories much? Ugh, bye.[/quote] DP Do you think "genetic" just means "inheritable," or do you not know about spontaneous mutations, or ... ?
