Diabetes is a group of diseases characterised by high blood glucose levels that result from defects in the body's ability to produce and/or use insulin.
Causes of type 1 diabetes: Type 1 is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic susceptibility and environmental factors, though exactly what many of those factors are is still unclear.
Causes of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes: Being overweight is strongly linked to the development of type 2 diabetes, but not everyone with type 2 is overweight.
