Type 1 diabetes
We believe that type 1 diabetes is caused by an immune response (the body itself accidentally attacks). Risk factors for type 1 diabetes are less clear than diabetes and type 2 diabetes. The known risks are:
- Family medical history: Parents, siblings, or sisters have type 1 diabetes.
- Age: Type 1 diabetes can occur in all age groups, but is more likely to occur in children, adolescents, or adolescents.
In the United States, whites are more likely to have type 1 diabetes than African Americans and Hispanic / Latino Americans.
No one currently knows how to prevent type 1 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes
You are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes if you meet the following conditions:
- Diabetes mellitus
- Excess weight
- 45 years and over
- Parents, siblings, or sisters with type 2 diabetes
- Exercise less than 3 times a week
- If you have gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy) or give birth to a baby weighing over 9 pounds
- African-American, Hispanic / Latino, American Indian, or Native Alaskan (some Pacific Islands and Asian Americans are also at higher risk)
If you have non-alcoholic fatty liver, you are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
You can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes through simple and effective lifestyle changes. For example, being overweight or eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly can help you lose weight.
Diabetes
There is a risk of developing diabetic precursors if the following conditions are met:
- Excess weight
- 45 years and over
- Parents, siblings, or sisters with type 2 diabetes
- Exercise less than 3 times a week
- If you have gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy) or give birth to a baby weighing over 9 pounds
- African-American, Hispanic / Latino, American Indian, or Native Alaskan (some Pacific Islands and Asian Americans are also at higher risk)
Diabetes can be prevented or reversed through simple and effective lifestyle changes. For example, being overweight or eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly can help you lose weight. The National Diabetes Prevention Program, led by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), supports health changes as a continuous result.
Gestational diabetes
There is a risk of gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy) if the following conditions are met.
- Previously suffering from gestational diabetes during pregnancy
- I gave birth to a baby over 9 pounds.
- Excess weight
- 25 years and over
- If you have a family history of type 2 diabetes
- I have a hormonal disease called polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
- Requires African Americans, Hispanics / Latinos, American Indians, Native Alaskans, Native Hawaiians, or Pacific Islands residents.
Gestational diabetes generally disappears after the baby is born, but will increase the risk of type 2 diabetes in the future. Babies are more likely to become obese in early childhood and adolescence and later to develop type 2 diabetes.
Before you become pregnant, you are overweight, and eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly can help you lose weight and prevent gestational diabetes.
