Unhealthy food choices in general can help cause obesity which increases one’s risk, as does age; still largely hereditary. How do I know? My maternal grandmother was type 1 diabetic, my mother was T2, myself and all three of my siblings are T2. It’s part of the counseling after your diagnosis. It’s probably better to listen to health care professionals instead of folks on the internet.
