I understand your concern, but Type 2 Diabetes can progress to Type 1.
When I first read your post, I thought WTF? So this twit is saying that my dad got to be diabetic at age 2 because he ate too much sugar, and I was diabetic at age 12 because I ate too much sugar---even though I was growing up on a farm eating probably the most wholesome diet a kid could where my parents were pretty limiting on the sugar we got? NO!. And then I started to feel a rant building, but I decided to reread what you had posted instead....
I still think you need to clarify your "types" of diabetes.
From the American Diabetes Association:
Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed in children and young adults, and was previously known as juvenile diabetes. In type 1 diabetes, the body does not produce insulin.
and from 1992:
Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is marked by circulating antibodies to a 64,000-M(r) islet cell antigen identified as glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD)...... Antibodies to GAD were elevated (means +/- 3 SD) in 5% NIDDM cases and in none of the nondiabetic subjects.
In type 2 diabetes, either the body does not produce enough insulin or the cells ignore the insulin
Type I diabetes is an autoimmune disease that may or may not have a contributing viral component. A Type II diabetic doesn't "become" a Type I diabetic, although that term is often used to describe a Type II diabetic who has to take insulin because of decreased insulin production. Type 2 diabetes mellitus occurs due to insulin resistance (decreased insulin function) combined with reduced insulin secretion.
Also how do carbohydrates destroy the Beta cells of the pancreas? Its the acinar cells surrounding the exocrine ducts of the pancreas that secrete digestive enzymes. The endocrine cells are grouped in the Islets of Langerhans which secretes directly into the blood.
Also, I think I see what you are trying to say, I've just got caught up on some of the fine points which I'm reading as being flat out wrong.
