In 2011, about 336 million people had type 2 diabetes mellitus worldwide. This is approximately 5,000 per 100,000.

About 90–95% of all North American cases of diabetes are type 2<ref name="nature">Zimmet, P., Alberti, K. G. M. M., Shaw, J. Global and societal implications of the diabetes epidemic. ''Nature'' '''2001''', 414, 782-787.</ref>, and about 20% of the population over the age of 65 has diabetes mellitus type 2. The fraction of type 2 diabetics in other parts of the world varies substantially, almost certainly for environmental and lifestyle reasons, though these are not known in detail. Diabetes affects over 150 million people worldwide with this number expected to double by 2025<ref name="nature"/>. There is also a strong inheritable [[genetics|genetic]] connection in type 2 diabetes: having relatives (especially first degree) with type 2 is a considerable risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes. In addition there is also a mutation to the Islet Amyloid Polypeptide gene that results in an earlier onset, more severe form of diabetes<ref>Sakagashira, S., Sanke, T., Hanabusa, T., Shimomura, H., Ohagi, S., Kumagaye, K.
