So what would be the main reason that separates type 1 from type 2 diabetes?  Well, type 1 diabetes is actually an auto-immune disease where the body fails to produce insulin. The immune system demolishes the insulin-producing cells present in the pancreas. Type 1 diabetes mostly occurs in children, teens, and young adults. People who have this illness are in need of a  life-long insulin therapy.
