Blood Sugar Ultra Review
I suffer from what is commonly known as type 1 diabetes, or Blood Sugar Ultra Review juvenile onset diabetes. Type 1 almost always is onset in juveniles (or people under 18). People that suffer from type 1 require insulin to survive. Without going into too much detail about the pancreas, I will just share that insulin is produced by the beta cells in the pancreas. For a still unknown reason, in people that have type 1 diabetes, the immune system mistakenly destroys these cells. Insulin, by the way, delivers glucose to the cells that need it. When the beta cells are destroyed, there is no insulin and therefore way too much glucose in the bloodstream.
Type 2 diabetes is a little different. In type 2, the immune system does not destroy the beta cells in the pancreas. In type 2 diabetes, the body just does not respond properly to the insulin that is already there (known as insulin resistant) or there is just not enough insulin to go around. The pancreas is working overtime and eventually just runs out of energy, so to speak. Genetics plays a large role in the development of type 2 diabetes, as does obesity.
The biggest and most important difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes is that type 1 is incurable. So far, although research has made some great advancements, there is not a known cure for type 1 diabetes. It is difficult to cure a disease in which the body is in essence attacking itself. Type 2 diabetes is preventable and curable with a proper diet plan and weight management. If glucose levels are managed properly, then type 2 can be cured.
