Only 5% to 10% of diabetics have Type 1 diabetes, which is caused by an insufficient supply of insulin. The majority of diabetics—90% to 95%—have Type 2 diabetes, also known as adult-onset diabetes or insulin resistance. Type 1 diabetes is much more uncommon, despite the fact that it is more dangerous. Although Type 1 Diabetes, also known as Juvenile Diabetes, can occur at any age, it is most frequently diagnosed in children.
How Insulin Works:
Food (also known as carbohydrates or sugars), oxygen, toxins, and poisons all exist in your blood. Aside from receiving their food and oxygen from the blood, cells dispose of their waste there as well. Your body has a system built up so that your cells only need to look for one Digestive Hormone: Insulin. This prevents your cells from eating the incorrect things and dying. As a result, your cells no longer have to perform as many complex tasks as they do now and can instead rely solely on insulin to find nourishment (sugar).
All insulin does is send a hormonal message between a sugar molecule (carbohydrate) and a cell, allowing the cell to locate and consume the sugar in the blood. There are many distinct forms of sugar, some of which contain certain vitamins and nutrients, while others do not. Insulin, therefore, serves many critical roles for your body, including removing the complex confusion that the cells would otherwise have to manage. Additionally, not every sugar molecule reaches every cell; insulin ensures that sugars containing particular vitamins and nutrients reach the appropriate cells. Not every sugar, vitamin, or nutrient is absorbed by every cell. Vitamins are frequently intended for certain cell types.
Your blood sugar levels are not decreased by insulin itself; rather, they are decreased by your cells devouring the sugar, which they cannot do without insulin.
Once the cell receives the hormonal signal to ingest the sugar that is linked to its outer surface, the cell transports the sugar molecule to its mitochondria, where it uses another enzyme to bond the sugar with oxygen to produce energy and cause the mitochondria to chemically vibrate. What sustains the cell’s life is the mitochondria’s chemical vibration. If the sugar molecule includes a vitamin or other nutrient, then that vitamin or nutrient transforms that energy into actual functional work inside that cell by inducing a complicated series of chemical chain reactions in response to that burst of energy.
There is usually some type of vitamin or nutrition in the sugars from fruits and vegetables. That which doesn’t is refined sugar. Eating refined sugars is similar to driving a car without transmission fluid or using regular gas; while the heating may function, neither the automobile nor the car’s performance will be very significant. Consequently, the process of producing that energy results in a massive waste of insulin, enzymes, and oxygen.
Glucagon’s definition:
Not only is the manufacturing of Glucagon impaired or destroyed in Type 1 Diabetes, but also the creation of Insulin. Your pancreases release glucagon, another crucial digestive hormone when they notice a low blood sugar occurrence. This hormone tells your liver to increase the production of sugar from your body’s fat reserves. The liver won’t receive the signal if this hormone isn’t generated, which can cause your blood sugar levels to fall to risky lows. Additionally, if your sugar levels go too low, you will die just as quickly as if your oxygen levels did as well. Keep in mind that oxygen cannot be metabolized without sugar. Also known as dead people are those who are unable to digest oxygen. Because of this, type 1 diabetics may also receive emergency glucagon injections if they are unable to obtain or consume sugary foods during a low blood sugar attack, such as fruit, candy, or tablets. This is possible because when the brain is depleted of sugar, it begins to malfunction, rendering the victim unable to consume any food or liquids.
Type 1 diabetes causes include:
The prevalent urban legend holds that diabetes is brought on by excessive sugar consumption. Your body needs glucose to utilize oxygen, contrary to the widespread misconception. In actuality, sugar is the only source of oxygen that keeps you alive right now. You wouldn’t need to breathe oxygen to stay alive if you didn’t require sugar for energy. The disease’s symptom, rather than its underlying cause, is the inability to metabolize glucose. The causes of diabetes and lung cancer are not mutually exclusive.
The main cause of Type 1 Diabetes is IMMUNE RESPONSE DISORDER. The majority of Type 1 diabetics develop this disease two weeks after recovering from a serious illness, typically measles, the flu, food poisoning, etc., wherein your immune system unintentionally produces an antibody to kill the invading virus or bacteria with antigen attacking antibodies that also attack and kill islet cells in your pancreas because they just so happen to have a common antigen code that matches the antibody produced by your immunization system. As a result, Type 1 diabetes may be brought on by a compromised immune system that destroys the islet cells in your pancreas that produce insulin.
Your pancreas may initially generate 32 times more insulin than it would in a non-diabetic person if you have TYPE 2 DIABETES (Insulin Resistance), but as the condition worsens, this amount of insulin production decreases. Additionally, if left untreated for an extended period of time, diabetes might eventually impair your pancreas’ capacity to generate insulin, making you both a Type 1 and Type 2 diabetic. The reason for Type 2 Diabetes, on the other hand, is different; it is brought on by a duodenum that isn’t working properly. If the duodenum is fixed, Type 2 Diabetes and Type 1 diabetes, to an extent, if it was brought on by Type 2, can be cured. But even if Type 2 disappeared, Type 1 might still persist if any of the other Type 1 factors indicated here were present.
By killing the islet cells in your pancreas, which make insulin and glucagon, PANCREATITIS can also result in Type 1 Diabetes. Additionally, your pancreas makes digestive enzymes, which are typically inactive while remaining in the pancreas and do not become active until after passing through the pancreatic duct and into the duodenum. However, these digesting enzymes inexplicably become prematurely triggered in pancreatitis while still inside your pancreas. It triggers your body’s digestive enzymes to begin digesting your body once your damaged pancreas bleeds, causing your pancreas to be broken down. By performing a blood test and looking for certain digestive enzymes, doctors can identify pancreatitis. If this condition is identified and treated quickly enough, Type 1 Diabetes may be avoided or even the pancreas may be spared from total and utter destruction. The same flu-like symptoms also occur in pancreatitis.
PANCREATIC CANCER CAN ALSO CAUSE TYPE 1 DIABETES; AS YOU LOSE YOUR PANCREAS TO CANCER, YOU WILL BECOME TYPE 1 DIABETIC, BUT YOU WILL ALSO START LOSING MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF WEIGHT AS WELL. The fact that the drugs that aid in digestion aren’t ideal and can have undesirable side effects further contributes to a poor life expectancy. Additionally, as pancreatic cancer advances, it can potentially disperse throughout your body.
Symptoms:
In many circumstances, you may only have a week or two to identify what is wrong with you before you are in serious difficulty if you have type 1 diabetes, which can strike you very suddenly.
One symptom of type 1 diabetes is MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS rather than weight gain. This is brought on by ketoacidosis, which is brought on by a panicked liver. In Type 1 diabetes, even though your body is overflowing with food and your cells are starving to death due to a lack of insulin, your liver and nervous system are in a very close symbiotic relationship. Your nervous system signals your liver to the fact that your nerve cells are starving to death; in response, the liver freaks out and generates ketones to drain all the fat from your fat cells so that it can turn the fat into sugar. The liver, however, is unaware that the problem is with insulin and not with blood sugar levels. Thus, as the fat is being removed from your fat cells, your blood sugar levels keep rising.
Increased blood viscosity is a result of HIGH BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS. Your blood should be as viscous as water at typical blood sugar levels of 80 to 120 mg/dl because your blood is normally 70% water. The viscosity, however, equals that of Wesson Oil if it exceeds 180 mg/dl. The microscopic capillaries in your body have a difficult time letting this blood through because of its higher viscosity. Your blood pressure will soar as a result of the blood backing up in the capillaries, making the situation much worse. Your eye capillaries are put under stress, which can harm them or even result in blindness. Your kidneys, liver, and heart may also be harmed. The capillaries in your feet are significantly worse since they are being heavily compressed by your body, making it even more difficult for the blood to move through them. As a result, diabetics frequently experience foot difficulties, lose their feet to gangrene, or walk with highly sensitive feet. Your cells will starve and lose the ability to digest oxygen as a result of having high blood sugar levels since they aren’t eating the sugar. You will experience this as being extremely sleepy and exhausted, especially after eating. Although your body is filled with food, your cells are starving. Your cells begin to consume food during the last phase of digestion, therefore if they aren’t, you haven’t actually consumed any food. But eating extra food won’t help; you need to address the insulin manufacturing issue.
ALL THE TIME SLEEP AND AM TIRED.
About every half-hour or so, FREQUENT URINATION. As a result of your kidneys’ detection of the danger posed by high blood sugar levels and their attempt to reduce blood sugar levels by eliminating the sugars. This in turn harms the kidneys because they are not meant to get rid of food; rather, they are meant to get rid of toxins and poisons.
FIXES:
Injections of insulin are the solution, but figuring out the proper dosage is nearly as difficult as trying to navigate rapids in a sailboat. Before the invention of insulin in 1927, most persons who developed Type 1 Diabetes would pass away within a few weeks. ideally sooner. Thus, it appears that insulin injections have improved since before 1927. It is merely a patch, not the solution. Due to the fact that insulin is a digestive hormone, which is a specific protein-polypeptide that transmits messages between a sugar molecule and a cell, insulin can only be administered intravenously. Therefore, if you tried to eat insulin, it would be destroyed in your digestive system and would only ever enter your bloodstream as broken-down protein molecules or as amino acids, never as actual insulin.
A superior solution is INSULIN PUMP. When your pancreas is functioning properly, the amount of insulin is extremely precisely controlled. When you manually try to calculate your insulin levels, you either wind up with too little, which results in blood sugar levels that are not low enough or too much, which results in low blood sugar that is life-threatening. But as insulin pumps get better, they come with a blood sugar sensor and a built-in regulated insulin pump that more precisely injects the right quantity of insulin on a regular basis, just like your once-functioning pancreas used to. Although some human control is still necessary, the accuracy and autonomy of these insulin pumps continue to increase with time. Although these pumps can be fairly pricey, they will eventually become more and more accessible as technology develops.
Diabetes Type 1 Treatments:
Only Type 1 diabetics who are terminally ill from Type 1 diabetes undergo ISLET TRANSPLANTATION, which is an uncommon circumstance. The majority of Type 1 diabetics control their insulin, diet, and exercise successfully, thus they are not candidates for islet transplantation.
Islet transplantation can take one of two main forms: either you inject islet cells into your liver or you transplant the pancreas from a non-diabetic donor into the pancreas of the diabetic. Islet cells should preferably be injected into the diabetic’s liver if they are at risk for pancreatitis. The Islet cells will begin automatically producing controlled amounts of insulin after being injected.
The bad news is that, because this is an organ transplant involving a foreign organ, you will probably need to take immunosuppressants for the rest of your life. Therefore, you must be prepared to exchange your Type 1 Diabetes for medically produced AIDS. It costs a lot of money to take immunosuppressants for the rest of your life.
There are just 43 clinical institutes worldwide that conduct this surgery, which is still regarded as an experimental treatment for Type 1 diabetics in dire need of help. Furthermore, islet transplants have only been given to 471 Type 1 Diabetes patients to date.
