Type 1 diabetes is a chronic illness that was previously classified as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes. The pancreas produces little or no insulin in this situation. Insulin is a hormone produced by the body that allows sugar (glucose) to enter cells and produce energy.
Type 1 diabetes can be caused by a variety of reasons, including genetics and some viruses. Although type 1 diabetes typically manifests in infancy or adolescence, it can manifest in adulthood.
Despite much study, there is no treatment for type 1 diabetes. To avoid complications, treatment focuses on controlling blood sugar levels with insulin, food, and lifestyle changes.
Type 1 diabetes symptoms can appear suddenly and may include:

Book AppointmentCauses of Diabetes :
Type 1 diabetes has an unknown cause. The insulin-producing (islet) cells in the pancreas are usually destroyed by the body's own immune system, which ordinarily battles harmful bacteria and viruses. Other plausible explanations include:
- 01
Genetics
- 02
Exposure to viruses and other environmental factors
Diagnosis Test :
- 01
Glycated hemoglobin (A1C) test
This blood test determines your average blood sugar level over the last two to three months. It detects the quantity of blood sugar bound to the oxygen-carrying protein (haemoglobin) in red blood cells. The greater your blood sugar levels, the more sugar-attached haemoglobin you'll have. Diabetes is diagnosed when your A1C result is 6.5% or above on two different tests.
- 02
Random blood sugar test
A blood sample will be drawn at random and validated by other testing. The concentration of sugar in the blood is measured in milligrammes per deciliter (mg/dL) or millimoles per litre (mmol/L). A random blood sugar level of 200 mg/dL (11.1 mmol/L) or greater, regardless of when you last ate, indicates diabetes.
- 03
Fasting blood sugar test
After you do not eat (fast) overnight, a blood sample will be taken. A fasting blood sugar level of less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is considered normal. Prediabetes is defined as fasting blood sugar levels ranging from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L). Diabetes is diagnosed when your blood sugar level is 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or greater on two different tests.
Treatment
The goal is to keep blood sugar levels as close to normal as possible in order to postpone or avoid consequences. The goal is to keep blood sugar levels before meals between 80 and 130 mg/dL (4.44 to 7.2 mmol/L) over the day. After-meal levels should not exceed 180 mg/dL (10 mmol/L) two hours after eating.
- Taking insulin
- Counting carbohydrates, fats and protein
- Monitoring blood sugar often
- Eating healthy foods
- Exercising regularly and keeping a healthy weight
