 There are 2 main types of diabetes 

Most of the symptoms of diabetes are the same for type 1 and type 2 diabetes, 
although there are differences in the way they develop. 
Although US scientists have discovered a type 3 diabetes, it is still undergoing 
further research. 
 
Type 1
In type 1 diabetes the signs and symptoms are usually very obvious and can develop quickly. 
A common indicator of the presence of type 1 diabetes is a condition called ketoacidosis, 
which occurs when acid compounds (ketones) form in the blood. If left untreated, 
ketoacidosis can result in extremely serious complications and even prove fatal.

There is also a sub-type of type 1 diabetes called Brittle Diabetes
 
Type 2
 Type 2 diabetes appears mainly in people over the age of 40. 
However, signs and symptoms can develop at such a slow rate that people may not 
recognise  they are ill for some time. In addition, some people with type 2 diabetes 
do not develop  any symptoms if their blood glucose level is not too high. 

The three major symptoms of diabetes are:
 Polyuria (frequent urination) 
Polydipsia (Increased thirst and fluid intake) 
Polyphagia (Increased appetite) 

Other common symptoms of the two forms of diabetes include:
Sudden weight loss 
Blurred vision 
Tingling or numbness in hands or feet 
Lack of energy/constant fatigue 
Very dry skin 
Sores and wounds that take a long time o heal 
Skin infections 
Genital itching or regular episodes of thrush 
Cramps 

Those who think they might have diabetes, or experience any of these symptoms, 
must visit their Doctor for diagnosis. To help determine whether a person is diabetic or not, 
a doctor will carry out a routine urine test to see if excess glucose is present and a blood test 
that measures the level of glucose in the blood. 

Early treatment will help relieve the symptoms and also reduce the chances of 
developing serious health problems. 

Type 1:
Type 1 diabetes, also known as insulin-dependent diabetes, develops 
when the body is unable to produce any insulin. 
This type of diabetes is also referred to as early-onset diabetes because 
it usually occurs before the age of 40, often in the teenage years.

Type 1 diabetes is the least common of the two main diabetes types 
and accounts for only 5 – 15% of all people with diabetes. 

Type 2:
 Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body is able to produce some insulin, 
but not enough for it to function properly, or when the cells in the body 
do not react to insulin - known as insulin resistance.

This type of diabetes is far more common than type 1 diabetes and accounts for 
85 - 95% of all people with diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes is often associated with obesity. Obesity-related diabetes is sometimes 
referred to as Maturity Onset Diabetes, or adult-onset diabetes, as it is more common in 
older people, usually over the age of 40. 

However, people of South Asian and African-Caribbean descent can develop the disease after 
the age of 25. Furthermore, more children are now being diagnosed with the condition, 
some as young as seven.

Gestational Diabetes 
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a type of diabetes that develops in around 
2 to 5% of all pregnancies. 
GDM occurs because the body has less ability to produce enough insulin to meet the
 extra needs of pregnancy. 
In some women, the condition may have developed before the pregnancy. 
Also visit: Gestational diabetes

This type of diabetes occurs more frequently in women with a family history of diabetes, 
over the age of 25, part of a minority race and women that are overweight or obese.

Despite disappearing once pregnancy is over, GDM leaves women 
with a higher risk of later developing type 2 diabetes.

What are the symptoms? 
In most cases, gestational diabetes has no external symptoms and is detected 
through screening. 
Only rarely do the classic symptoms of diabetes appear:
excessive thirst, 
frequent urination and
 increased appetite. 

However, these are also common symptoms in normal pregnancy.

 Diagnosis 
An Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is used to diagnose GDM. 
An OGTT involves a blood test before breakfast, then again two hours
 after a glucose drink. 
Forum discussion on Glucose Tolerance Tests

Other specific diabetes types 
Other types of diabetes can result from specific genetic syndromes, 
surgery, drugs, malnutrition, infections, and other illnesses. 

Such types of diabetes account for around 1 to 2% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes.

 strict vegetarians which is more of a layman's definition. A vegan diet is essentially as specialized type of vegetarian diet. This dietstresses upon not eating animal products, including dairy. Vegan dieters only eat plant-based foods.

Being a vegan can be a bit hard but it does offer some significant health benefits.

Vegans Contribute Towards Environment:
Most of the animal produce in the form of dairy and meat products is sourced through livestock farming. This kind of animal rearing isn't good for our environment. It contributes immensely to global warming. Livestock farming also stresses the ecology, devouring a lot of land and water and uses chemicals too. Many livestock farms are responsible for rendering the soil infertile and can cause soil erosion and deforestation. If a vegan diet is adopted, it means that the individual is contributing towards conserving the environment and protecting the ecology against further damage.

Vegans Eat Less Saturated Fats:
The lack of meat and dairy foods in vegan diets means elimination of saturated fats to a large extent. The vegan dieter is more likely to have a robust cardiovascular health and lesser propensity towards gaining weight or developing high levels of cholesterol. This also means a lesser chance of developing lifestyle diseases like Type 2 Diabetes and high blood pressure.

Vegans Have Robust Metabolism:
Vegans tend to eat vegetables, whole grains and fruits and these food items contain lots of fiber. This includes soluble and insoluble fiber that is recommended for better colon health. This further ensures better absorption of nutrients and comprehensive removal of toxins from the body. These factors combine to ensure that the overall metabolic rate is kept-up, capable of burning more calories throughout the day and induce a feeling of being energetic.

Vegan Diets Prevents Age-related Conditions:
Vegan diets help to derail the onset of typical aging-induced health issues, like:
Cataract & Macular Degeneration—with the presence of more vegetables and fresh fruits, particularly bright leafy greens, macular degeneration or loss vision from the center of eye is prevented. This also helps to avert the calcification process that causes cataract.
Arthritis—arthritis symptoms are known to be alleviated by switching to a low-fat and gluten-free diet. These objectives are met via vegan diet. In fact, vegan diets are recommended to those suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Osteoporosis—bone density tends to decrease as we age, causing softening of bones or osteoporosis. A vegan diet provides sufficient protein and calcium along with low sodium and high potassium. These are the basic requirements for maintaining stronger bones.

Vegan Diets Reduce Vulnerability to Allergies:
Reduction in consumption of dairy products means lesser chances of consuming animal hormones. Similarly, zero intake of animal produce also protects against many kinds of livestock diseases and chemicals. The most commonly-understood example in this niche is Milk which is one of the biggest causes of food and skin allergies across the world.

Vegans Are Better Equipped to Fight Aging & Cancer:
Plant-based foods are naturally fortified with more Phytochemicals. These biochemicals are one of the strongest, most potent sources of immunity known to mankind. Some phytochemicals are deemed strong enough to heal cancer and slow down aging. VeganDiets help to avert the onset of cancer too. This includes Prostate and Colon Cancer. In fact, many cancer patients who want to try alternative healing to slow the progression of theircancer are often asked to switch to vegan diets.
