Type I Diabetes and How To Reduce Its Effects

[@Jackoline6]

there are indeed genetic factors in play in type I diabetes.. it's a gene called IDDM .. and there are 18 kinds of it.. although genetics isn't the only one to blame since diabetes is a multifactorial disease.. environmental factors usually starts the onset of diabetes.. genes control how prone you are to it and how severe it will be if you have it

IDDM stands for Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus it is NOT a gene.
