Pathophysiology- Emma
Mainly caused by two related problems
Cells in muscle, fat and liver become resistant to insulin. These cells dont act normally with insulin so they dont take in enough sugar
The pancrease cannot produce enough insulin to manage blood sugar levels
Being overweight and inactive are contributing factors
