There are two types of diabetes, type 1 is known as insulin-dependent, characterized by a lack of insulin production due to damage to the pancreas. The first type is due to heredity or genetics. Type 2 is non-insulin dependent due to the use of insulin in the body. The second type due to being overweight, due to lack of activity and poor diet.

Genetics of type 1 diabetes there are two types, namely offspring through genetics and lifestyle habits of descent through the family. Although both parents or one of them with diabetes, not necessarily because their children have a disease similar to the most important factor is the pattern of life of the child. Indeed genetically derived can not be changed again, if the child or parents keep eating children, the child will not diabetes.

Healthy lifestyles

The second type of family life patterns passed down to children, such as unhealthy eating habits, activity and exercise is usually done together.
