How is diabetes caused by a hormone imbalance?

Either too little or no Insulin (hormone) is produced to counteract an increase in Blood Glucose Levels due to hormonal imbalance. If enough Insulin is produced then most of the glucose can be stored and the rest would be excreted by urination. The hormonal imbalance can be genetic but can also be due to a longterm, unhealthy lifestyle where a lot of sugar is consumed and little exercise done. Target cells in the liver become adapted to high BGL and do not produce Insulin to counteract a small increase in BGL.
