Type 1 ... needs Insulin and uncontrolled glucose can lead to Diabetic KetoAcidosis !

Type one is much worse! Diabetes means that your pancreases can not produce enough insulin to keep up with the amount of sugar that your body has in it. Excess sugar in your body is basically a poison that your body has to figure out how to deal with. Type 1 diabetes comes from a problem with your pancreases. Usually, you are born with this illness. Type 2 comes, usually from eating too many carbs and sugar and can usually be controlled. People with type one will need to be on insulin for the rest of their lives. People with type 2 can many times lose weight, and control their eating to help maintain a normal blood sugar in their body.

Hope this helps

i would say type 1 is most dangerous. Our loz is a type 2 and is relatively controlled by diet and medications

type 1

Both when not treated and cared well, how ever Type 1 requires a more involved management
