What is type 1 diabetes

summary

A friend asked me that his unit organized everyone to have a physical examination last week. He thought he was in good health at ordinary times, so it was easy to have a physical examination. But yesterday, when the hospital informed me of the examination results, he said that his blood sugar was very high, which might be type 1 diabetes. So what is type 1 diabetes? Now let me tell you what type 1 diabetes is.

What is type 1 diabetes

First of all, type 1 diabetes is also called insulin-dependent diabetes, because it often occurs before the age of 35, accounting for less than 10% of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is dependent on insulin therapy, that is to say, patients need to use insulin therapy from the onset, and lifelong use. The reason is that insulin producing cells in the pancreas of patients with type 1 diabetes have been completely damaged, thus completely losing the function of producing insulin. In the case of absolute lack of insulin in the body, it will cause continuous increase of blood glucose level and diabetes.

Secondly, type 1 diabetes is more likely to occur in adolescents. They drink more, urinate more, eat more, and lose weight obviously. The first symptom is diabetic ketosis;

Finally, in terms of treatment, patients with diabetes should first control their diet (fixed meal and ration) and exercise properly, and take medication. They should monitor their daily life and adjust their medication according to their blood glucose. Blood glucose can be controlled. Now they are 33 years old, so we must strictly control their blood glucose in order to prevent and delay the complications of diabetes.
