Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic condition characterized by high levels of blood glucose, or hyperglycemia. Type 2 diabetes is by far the most common form of the condition. Sometimes known as acquired, adult-onset or non-insulin-dependent diabetes, it is strongly associated with morbid obesity as well as with a combination of risk factors including diet, lack of physical activity, age and family history. Type 2 diabetes is often cured with bariatric surgery
