What is Type I Diabetes?
Type I Diabetes also known as
Juvenile Diabetes is a chronic, autoimmune
disease in which the pancreas produces little to no insulin.
Insulin is a hormone that aids in permitting blood
sugar into the cells of the body. Without insulin, the blood
sugar builds up in the bloodstream which can lead to harmful
effects on the body and causes the symptoms experienced by
this disease.
