Solution

Type 2 diabetes

  1. Insulin resistance develops in our bodies, resulting in Type 2 Diabetes.
  2. This is due to the body's failure to respond to insulin.
  3. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that regulates blood sugar levels.
  4. When this resistance develops for a variety of reasons, the blood sugar level rises, and type 2 diabetes develops.
  5. Type 2 diabetes can also occur as a result of any pancreatic pathology that causes insulin secretion to be decreased or not produced in sufficient amounts.
  6. Type 2 diabetes can also develop if there is a blockage in the transit of insulin, preventing it from reaching the bloodstream.
