In other words, is it likely to have prediabetes or diabetes if nobody in your family has it?
While I’m at it, is prediabetes/diabetes common in teenagers?

By age 50, somewhere between 1 in 14 and 1 in 10 according to 2006 statistics.
Pre-diabetes, and type two diabetes are becoming more and more common these days in teens and adults alike. To find out why, just look at the low incidence of type two diabetes among civilizations that still live off the land instead of wolfing down artificially prepared, non-natural foods like we have adopted here in the U.S. and other developed countries. In India, the incidence is even higher than here. The only exceptions are in the rural communities that still grow their own foods.
very low, unless you are grossly overweight, which can cause type 11 diabetes
Hey I’m 16 and I have had it for over a year and no one in my immediate family has it. It also has a lot to do with your medical history.
I you r over weight u have an increased chance and u need to excersise.
there’s a 5 to 10 percent chance of getting diabetes most teens don’t get diabetes but as you get older its easier to get
It doesn’t really matter if anyone in your family has ever had it before, you can still have it. However, having a family history does give you a greater risk at having it. And as the first answerer said, it isn’t common in teenagers, but it can happen.
I have type 1 diabetes and no one in my family is diabetic. Unfortunately type 1 is an auto-immune disorder meaning essentially your immune system has gone haywire and destroyed your pancreatic cells. Therefore, type 1 is impossible to predict but generally occurs before someone had turned twenty-one. If no one in your family is a type 2 diabetic than the chances of you becoming diabetic later in life are very slim.
anything is possible
only somethings are likely
Type 1 you developes in childhood and you would probably have known by now.
Type 2 developes in obese people, and it does not matter in there is not history. You could still get it, so get tested if you are concerned.
it is rare
u get that from
heredity
behavior
environment
u have no heredity problems
suspect u have nice town
behavior isnt anything with diabetes
super small chance
You can definitely have diabetes, even without any family history.
It’s not common in teenagers. It usually begins in childhood or later in life.
