Type one Type 1 is where the pancreas completely shuts down, whereas Type 2 just sees reduced efficiency. So Type 1 is worse. (also, in most cases, not all but most, weight loss would 'cure' the type 2 Diabetes; the person would no longer suffer from it. essentially, type 2 is the pancreas simply not making enough insulin for the size of the body. clearly, if the body got smaller, the problem would no longer be a problem!! type 1 is permanent. there is no known way of 'curing' it

What are the different types of diabetes?

Diabetes can be classified into four different types depending upon the cause and symptoms of diabetes. 1. Type 1 Diabetes also referred to as juvenile diabetes is the result of the body's failure to produce insulin. Sometimes referred to as insulin-dependent diabetes because insulin must be supplied to the body daily. 2. Type 2 Diabetes results from insulin resistance when the body is unable to properly use insulin combined with an insulin deficiency 3. Gestational Diabetes which affects expectant mothers, usually during later pregnancy. 4. Pre-Diabetes occurs when blood glucose levels are elevated above normal but are not high enough for a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes.
