Diabetes has three types namely Type 1 or the insulin-dependent, Type 2 or the non insulin-dependent and Gestational Diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is also called juvenile diabetes and it happens when the body produces too little insulin or none at all .

Type 2 diabetes which is also known as adult-onset diabetes occurs due to the presence of insulin resistant cells in the body.
