Type 1 Diabetes - What is Type 1 Diabetes - Juvenile Diabetes - Insulin Dependent Diabetes - Type 1 Diabetes

diabetes.about.com — “Type 1 diabetes is a completely different disease than Type 2. Type 1 is an autoimmune disease of the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas. Scientists believe that a virus may trigger the immune system to attack the cells and permanently destroy them. The pancreas can no longer make the insulin necessary to transport sugar from the blood into the other cells of the body for energy. Sugar builds up in the blood and over time can damage internal organs and blood vessels.View full resource at diabetes.about.com

Insulin Resistance - TuDiabetes

tudiabetes.org — “Insulin is a hormone produced by cells on the pancreas, an organ that sits just behind your stomach. Insulin works like a chemical key to open pores in the cell membrane. All cells in your body have a covering that holds them together, but because cells are alive, nutrients must be allowed to pass through this covering and move into the cell.
