type 1 diabetes is when your pancreas stops working which produces insuline which helps your blood sugar stay leveled for example if you eat a candy bar and do not have diabetes your pancreas produces insulin to make sure your blood suagr does not go over 180 if you have diabetes like me and i eat a candy bar i need to take a insulin shot which kills the sugar basically so my blood sugar doesn't go high. It is treated with insulin and a healthy diet. If I eat salad it doesnt have a lot of sugar so my blood sugar will not go high and i will not have to take a lot of insulin.

Basically, insulin comes from your pancreas which kills sugar

with a broken pancreas no insulin no killing blood sugar.

Diabetes is a failure of the pancreas to produce insulin in sufficient quantities to break down the sugar in the system. Diabetes can often be controlled wit proper weight and activity levels and limited sugar intake. At times oral medication can be taken. Multiple daily injections of insulin are relied on by many to control their diabetes.

Diabetes is an auto immune disese and your body either stops makind insulin Or you can't use it when it is produced it is controlled by using a blood glucose meter, diet, and exercise which can be taken alone with type 2, and if you have type 1 you would need to take insulin shots
