This is a chronic disease that can develop gradually over the life of a patient and can be linked to both environmental factors and heredity.|MSH2017_2016_08_12:A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.|MEDLINEPLUS_20151021:<p><a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/diabetes.html'>Diabetes</a> means your blood glucose, or <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/bloodsugar.html'>blood sugar</a>, levels are too high. With type 2 diabetes, the more common type, your body does not make or use insulin well. Insulin is a hormone that helps glucose get into your cells to give them energy. Without insulin, too much glucose stays in your blood. Over time, high blood glucose can lead to <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/diabetescomplications.html'>serious problems</a> with your <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/diabeticheartdisease.html'>heart</a>, <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/diabeticeyeproblems.html'>eyes</a>, <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/diabetickidneyproblems.html'>kidneys</a>, <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/diabeticnerveproblems.html'>nerves</a>, and gums and teeth.</p> <p>You have a higher risk of type 2 diabetes if you are older, obese, have a family history of diabetes, or do not exercise.
