Definition

  • Type 2 diabetes, also called adult-onset, late-onset, or non-insulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic health condition in which one's body does not adequately make or use insulin, resulting in high blood sugar levels. A current problem linked to the prevalence of Type 2 diabetes nationwide is diabetes self-management. [Source: Encyclopedia of Family Health; Diabetes, Type 2, and the Family]
