If type one diabetes, is hereditary and type two has to do being overweight

How do we get either of the types, because I know one has / affects the liver, how is the liver connected to the pancreas, it says I google, pancreas is where the glucose and insulin is???

I'm not sure that you have to be overweight to have any type of diabetes. My grandma has it and is nowhere near overweight. I could be wrong, but yeah. Having diabetes can depend on a lot of different factors and yes for some people your weight can play a big role in it. As far as the pancrease goes from what I know of it, does store your body's insulin in some way.

@IAMMONARAHIMI it can be those things yes, but not necessarily. People get diabetes for all kinds of reasons that may or may not have to do with your weight. I know a lot of people with diabetes including my mother.

@IAMMONARAHIMI yes although 90% of people are overweight who have it it doesnt mean you have to be. There are other contributing factors.
