Type One Diabetes: This is a disease that you can NEVER out grow. You are stuck with it for the rest of your life. These people are the ones who need a CURE for diabetes the most. T1 is treated with Insulin, Diet, and activity. You get this in your genes.
Type One & Half Diabetes: This is VERY RARE. I am a Type 1 1/2 diabetic. This is when you have a mixture of T1, and T2, but can never get rid of.
Type Two Diabetes: This is a disease that you CAN get rid of. This is when you need to loose weight. T2 is treated with Pills, Diet, and Activity.
Type Three Diabetes: This is "not official" but direct family members of diabetics are considered T3.
