🔬 What is Type 1 Diabetes?
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where your immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in your pancreas.
🧬 Autoimmune Condition
Your immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the beta cells in your pancreas that produce insulin. This process can take months to years.
💉 Insulin Dependent
People with T1D must take insulin daily to survive, as their pancreas produces little to no insulin. Insulin is literally a life-saving medication.
👶 Any Age Onset
Most commonly diagnosed in children and young adults, but T1D can develop at any age. About 40% of diagnoses occur in adults over 20.
🤖 Technology Manageable
With modern CGMs, insulin pumps, and smart management tools, people with T1D can live full, healthy, and active lives.
⚠️ Recognizing Type 1 Diabetes Symptoms
Early recognition is crucial for timely diagnosis and treatment. If you or your child experience these symptoms, contact a healthcare provider immediately.
Frequent Urination
Needing to urinate much more often than usual, including frequent nighttime trips to the bathroom. This happens because excess glucose in the blood is filtered by the kidneys.
Excessive Thirst
Feeling constantly thirsty and unable to satisfy your thirst, no matter how much you drink. This occurs as your body tries to replace fluids lost through frequent urination.
Unexplained Weight Loss
Losing weight despite eating normally or more than usual. Without insulin, your body breaks down fat and muscle tissue for energy instead of using glucose.
Extreme Fatigue
Feeling unusually tired and weak because your cells can’t access glucose for energy. Even simple tasks may feel exhausting.
Blurry Vision
Changes in vision caused by high blood glucose levels affecting the lens of your eye. This usually improves once blood sugar is controlled.
Increased Hunger
Feeling extremely hungry even after eating, as your cells aren’t getting the energy they need from glucose without adequate insulin.
