Type 2 Diabetes: Obesity and Family History.
Type 1 diabetes: Genetic.
The risk of developing type 2 diabetes can be reduced significantly by drinking Alcoholic Beverages (beer, wine or liquor) in moderation. Large-scale research consistently finds a 30% to 40% lower risk of diabetes associated with moderate drinking. However, exactly how alcohol reduces the risk of diabetes has not yet been clearly established.
However, new research has now demonstrated that alcohol improves the body's resistance to insulin, a problem of type 2 or adult onset diabetes. People with type 2 diabetes can't use glucose effectively because of their resistance to insulin. That's the hormone that permits glucose to be used by the body's cells.
