Genetic Clues for Type 2 Diabetes
As of this moment, there are a few ideas on how one gets type 2 diabetes. There are causes of type 2 diabetes after someone has been born, but it has been thought that a person can obtain type 2 diabetes before he/she has been born. It is said that a person can pass down a gene that increases the chances of someone getting type 2 diabetes. This gene can be passed down through generations and increase the odds of the children getting it. It is also said that mothers eating habits while carrying the child can increase the chance of the child having type 2 diabetes. Last it is said that if a person has different gene or set of genes, then it can also increase the chances of getting type 2 diabetes. The effects of type 2 diabetes on a person's body if untreated can be very bad. if untreated a person can potentially go blind, lose limbs(mostly feet), can lead to extream obesity or in some cases cause weight loss. This can be very bad for you because it needs sugar it can't get so it starts to take it from the fat in muscle tissue which overall will make you very weak and fragile.
