The term double diabetes refers to when somebody has

obese or overweight.[1]

Multiple pieces of evidence show those with double diabetes mellitus have increased risks for complications from the condition in the future.[1] Furthermore, some people with double diabetes can reverse the type 2 version of their diabetes or the involved insulin resistance but the type 1 is permanent; the latter cannot be reversed.[2]

Similar to type 1 diabetes and to type 2, side effects such as diabetic

healthy diet, talking with a doctor and exercise. Most people with double diabetes need to also take diabetic medications.[2]
Almost all people with type 1 and some with type 2 need to inject insulin, while many others with type 2 will need to eventually use oral medications. But some type 2 diabetics can control the condition with diet and exercise alone. Double diabetes, however, requires a mix of medications and exercise.

Double diabetes can take place at almost any age, even for children and teenagers.[3] However, type 2 diabetes more often occurs in people middle-age or older. But in recent decades, overweight children, teenagers and young adults are also developing double or type 2 diabetes, in particular due to family history, substandard diet or physical inactivity.[3][4]
