    The document discusses diabetes, outlining the two main types: type I and type II. Type I diabetes occurs early in life and is caused by the pancreas failing to produce insulin, requiring lifelong insulin treatment. Type II diabetes occurs in adulthood and is caused by decreased insulin production or insulin resistance, treated through diet and oral medications. The document also describes common diabetes tests, normal and abnormal blood sugar levels, symptoms of high and low blood sugar, potential complications, and that there is currently no cure for diabetes.
