According to research, 25% or one out of every 4 people has diabetes. Diabetes is mainly of three types. Type 1 diabetes mellitus or Juvenile onset or IDDM (insulin dependent diabetes mellitus), Type 2 diabetes mellitus or adult onset or NIDDM (non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus) and Gestational diabetes which is developed to some pregnant women (who have never had diabetes before, have a high blood glucose level during pregnancy. It may precede development of Type 2 DM).
