Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disorder—the main symptom of type 2 diabetes mellitus is elevated blood sugar levels. Type 2 diabetes is also known as adult-onset diabetes or type 2 diabetes mellitus. This is because it used to occur almost exclusively in middle and late adulthood. However, this disorder is affecting an increasing number of children and teenagers these days.
Type 2 diabetes develops when the body’s cells resist insulin’s natural effect of driving glucose from the blood into the cells’ interiors. Insulin resistance is the medical term for this disease. As a result, glucose levels in the blood begin to rise.
