The core cause of type 2 diabetes is insulin resistance and the lack of insulin secretion ability. "For example, a unit of insulin can reduce blood sugar by ten milligrams, allowing the sugar in the blood to enter the cells and be metabolized by cells to store energy, but because of insulin resistance, a unit of insulin only reduces blood sugar by five milligrams, which stimulates the secretion of beta cells.
