Because people still think of diabetes as 'sugar' diabetes and that means that its the 'sugar' you eat that causes it when actually it's the body's inability to either produce insulin or utilize it properly that's the culprit!.
The cause for type 1 is still not understood!. And, type 2 can be caused by a number of different triggers!. Heredity, obesity, illness, stress, eating wrong to name a few!.
My mother developed diabetes after a concussion!. A nephew because of a throat infection that ultimately attacked his pancreas!. My brother and me, we liked our pasta, rice, and fresh baked breads too much!.
I liked one explanation I read!. Think of your body as a community!. The cells are the houses, glucose is the fuel that heats the houses, insulin is the key that opens the doors to the houses!. Somebody changed the locks!.
So that's what I say when someone tells me I got diabetes because I ate too many sweets!. "Nope, somebody just changed the locks on me!."

Eating to much and eating the wrong things over years causes obesity!. Obesity causes all sorts of health problems, diabetes is only of them, along with high cholesterol leading to heart problem etc!.!. It's like a chain reaction!. It will catch up with you!. Eating a no no every once in a while is just human but living a lifestyle or in a habit of overeating and only leads to bad health down the road!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
well you do not have to be over weight!. if you eat to much sugar in your life time you are at high risk for diabetes!. but some ppl get it for no reason and some times it is genetic, but usually caused by lots of sugar!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Those people are obviously mis-informed!. Let it go; dealing with diabetes is enough of a hassle without stressing over their ignorant comments!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
