Can you become diabetic eating a bar of snickers once a day? How much daily sugar content is dangerous?
Diabetes..either type…is not caused by eating too much of anything. And it is not caused by being overweight. It is a problem with the pancreas.

Diabetes is not caused by too much sugar. It can be caused by poor diet or being overweight, but not by just eating too much sugar alone.

I agree. Diabetes happens from lack of insulin not how much sugar you eat. Remember that everything you eat eventually turns into sugar.

Eating only a small bar of snickers once a day is ok. But then, be sure to drink a glass of water afterwards. And maintain the habit of drinking 10-15 glasses of water a day.

I'm assuming you're referring only to type 2. It's not caused by too much sugar–the reason they warn against getting diabetes if you're obese is because there is not enough insulin produced to circulate and balance out the sugar in your body.

I doubt it.
Type one is caused when your pancreas stops working through no fault of your own.
Type two can be caused by age, obesity etc
So it is highly unlikely.
