What you need to know about type 1 and type 2 diabetes
Type 1 diabetes refers to the inability to produce insulin to convert sugar (glucose) into energy for cellular function. In people without diabetes, the pancreas produces the amount of insulin needed for conversion.
by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention“Type 1 diabetes is thought to be caused by an autoimmune response (where the body mistakenly attacks itself).”
There is currently no cure for type 1 diabetes, and researchers do not yet believe this chronic disease can be reversed. However, clinical trials exploring reversal treatments are underway.
Type 2 diabetes deals with insulin resistance. This means that although the pancreas produces hormones, the cells cannot respond to them properly. It is most commonly diagnosed in people over the age of 45.
Both types of diabetes are treated by properly managing blood sugar levels, stress, diet, and exercise. If left untreated or underdiagnosed, the risk includes severe organ damage, loss of vision or limbs, and death.
