Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is an auto-immune condition where the body mistakenly attacks its own hormone produced by beta cells, resulting in a deficiency. The main symptoms include increased thirst, weight loss and frequent urination.
No one knows yet why this type of diabetes is so variable among different groups of people and in different countries, or why it’s steadily on the rise. There may be a genetic susceptibility in some populations, and some believe that environmental factors – like toxins, viruses or early diet – could be partly to blame.
Maintaining normal glucose levels with varying eating habits Type 1 diabetes is treated with appropriate injections. And with modern care, including sensor technology, we can now achieve good glucose levels without hypoglycaemia (i.e. low blood sugar).
We use the latest medications, pumps and drugs to prevent weight gain, which can be a real problem for some diabetic patients.
Type 2 Diabetes
Type 2 diabetes occurs more frequently in mid-life, though it’s now rapidly increasing among people of all ages. With the major increase in childhood obesity, type 2 diabetes is now increasingly found in children.
Obesity and inactivity are currently on the rise, which leads experts to describe the current surge in the disease as an epidemic. The numbers of people affected worldwide could double by 2025. Diabetes currently costs our health systems almost £10 billion each year and tackling the rise in the disease is vital
The disease runs in families. If either of your parents has type 2 diabetes, there is a 10–15% chance that you’ll get it.
