There’s 2 types of diabetes. Which are you referring to?

Type 1 is not preventable or curable and you can’t “give it to yourself” by eating badly. It’s genetic. Your immune system attacks your insulin cells and your pancreas stops making it. You have absolutely no choice whatsoever with type 1 and you will need to be on insulin injections for life.

Type 2 is lifestyle, which means you have a poor diet and the insulin your pancreas makes isn’t working. If you catch that early enough it is reversible.

Symptoms of type 1 include; extreme thirst, frequent urination, hunger or loss of appetite, nausea and headaches, fruity or acetone scented breath, rapid weight loss, vomiting, extreme dehydration, fatigue. If you ignore these symptoms, you risk coma and death by “ketoacidosis” which is where sugar builds up in your organs and blood because there is no insulin for your body to use to convert the food you’re eating into energy. It is VERY important because the risk of death is high. All you have to do is get a finger prick test at your GP, takes 5 seconds. I hope this was helpful xx and good luck xx
