Before making sweeping statements about a disease you obviously don't understand please read up on the difference between type 1 and 2 diabetes, and what the causes and treatments are for both. TL:DR - This pump would be used for type 1 diabetics. This type means your body does not produce insulin, so the treatment is to artificially inject it (via this device for example). It's not caused nor limiting to diet. Being unhealthy/overweight doesn't increase your chances of getting type 1. It's a genetic, juvinile onset disease. Type II is the type you're most likely thinking of. The body becomes less sensitive to insulin, so you need to consume less carbs and generally eat healthier. This pump would not be used by type II diabetics.
