Check below for your answer.

Explanation:

While type 1 diabetes is a genetically predisposed condition and is usually discovered at a young age, type 2 affects obese people and is not genetically predisposed.

When type 2 occurs, the pancreas reduces insulin production while in the case of type 1, the pancreas does not produce insulin at all.

Both of these types require dietary change as well as a healthier and more active lifestyle, but it is type 2 that can progress and become worse.
