What condition occurs when the body cannot properly process insulin or produces excessive glucose?

Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body either does not use insulin properly (insulin resistance) or does not produce enough insulin to maintain normal glucose levels. In this condition, the cells of the body cannot effectively absorb glucose from the bloodstream, leading to elevated blood sugar levels. This can result from a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors, such as obesity and inactivity. Over time, if left unmanaged, Type 2 diabetes can lead to serious health complications.

In contrast, Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the body does not produce insulin at all. Hypoglycemia refers to a state of low blood sugar, while hyperglycemia is simply high blood sugar but does not specifically explain the body's inability to process insulin or produce excess glucose. Thus, Type 2 diabetes is the most accurate condition that describes the scenario presented in the question.
