Overview

The underlying cause of type 2 diabetes is insulin resistance. The exact cause of insulin resistance is not known, however several theories exist. There is often an interplay of multiple risk factors coupled with the effect of environmental factors in a genetically susceptible person, which results in hyperglycemia and insulin resistance. Central obesity, aging, sedentary life style, high glycemic diets and some medications are most commonly implicated in the development of type 2 diabetes.
