First what is diabetes mellitus' Diabetes is a disorder in which blood levels of glucose or simple sugar are abnormally high because the body does not release or use insulin properly. People with type one diabetes produces little or no insulin, although most people in the U.S. don’t have this disease they have type two. In type two diabetes the pancreas continues to produce insulin, sometimes even at higher levels than normal. The body eventually grows resistance to its effects, resulting in an insulin deficiency.
