Inhoudsopgave
Wat is het verschil tussen type 1 en 2 diabetes?
In tegenstelling tot type 1 maakt het lichaam bij type 2 nog wel insuline aan, alleen reageert het lichaam er niet goed op. Dit noemen we ook wel ‘insulineresistentie’. Hierdoor haalt het lichaam onvoldoende glucose uit het bloed en gaat het bloedsuikergehalte omhoog. Type 2 is het meest voorkomende type suikerziekte.
