Can obese young adults develop type 1 diabetes?
Can an obese young adult develop type 1 diabetes and not type 2? I’ve read unexpected weight loss is a symptom of type 1. Can an obese young adult losing weight without effort and with other diabetes symptoms get type 1?
It is possible. Type I diabetes is an autoimmune disease, so it is possible to occur at any age, especially if you have a family history of it.
