The body does not produce insulin so a person who has type 1 diabetes must take insulin daily (hypoglycemia). No one knows exactly what causes the body’s immune system to attack the beta cells, but they believe that autoimmune, genetic, and environmental factors, possibly viruses, are involved.

Type 1 Diabetes, also called “insulin-dependent diabetes”, “juvenile diabetes”, or “early-onset diabetes”, is when the pancreas produces little to no insulin. Type 1 diabetes is not as common as type 2, but 10% of all diabetics are type 1. Patients with type 1 diabetes will need to take insulin injections for the rest of there lives.

Five to ten percent of Americans with diabetes have this type. People with type 1 diabetes do not produce insulin and need regular shots of it to keep their blood glucose levels normal. People who are at risk for type 1 are those who have a family history of the disease,
Type one diabetes is when the pancreas is not able to produce enough insulin for the body to function effectively, and a person becomes insulin dependent. It usually happens in children and young adults and is not as common as type two with “10 to 15 percent of all people with diabetes having type one.” (Diabetes Australia, Victoria 2008). Type one diabetes is an “autoimmune disease” (Diabetes Australia, Victoria 2008) where the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin

Only 24 percent of people are undiagnosed of diabetes. Diabetes is a disease in which the body is unable to property use and store glucose like a form of sugar.

Diabetes is a chronic, progressive and lifelong condition that affects the body’s ability to use the energy found in food (WebMD, 2016).
