Diabetes type 2 is the most common diabetes condition affecting over 90% of the 21 million cases in Americans. The main cause of Diabetes type 2 is Insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is when the cells reject the insulin that is generated causing the pancreas to produce more insulin to try to maintain a normal level. If cells reject the insulin they won’t be able to absorb the sugar, this will cause the blood sugar to rise. Over time the pancreas will not be able to produce enough insulin to overcome resistance. Diabetes type 2 was formally referred to as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or maturity-onset diabetes. Unlike diabetes type 1, type 2 primarily develops in people ages 65 and older but can appear at any age. It may cause increased bone density but may make the bones weak and frail.
