Diabetes, especially Type II, is rampant in the minority and low income communites. That is also likely why there is lately such a push against *the obesity epidemic*. It is expensive for Medicaid.

Not sure if there is any difference for Type I.

Type 1 = dead without insulin.
Type 2 = not dead, in fact diabetes disappears if they lose their belly fat.
