Type 1 Diabetes is usually diagnosed in children and young adults, and was previously called “juvenile diabetes“. In Type 1 Diabetes the body doesn’t produce enough of insulin. Insulin is produced by your pancreas, without insulin too much glucose stays in the blood and over time can lead to serious problems. Some of the problems may be with your kidneys, eyes, heart, nerves, teeth and gums. Type 1 Diabetes is much rarer than type 2 Diabetes. Only about 5-10% of people with diabetes have this form.

Some common symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes are:

Extreme thirst
Feeling very hungry or tired
Urinating often
Dry, itchy skin
Blurry eyesight
Tingling in your feet or losing feeling in your feet
Losing weight
Sores that heal slowly

There are many different types of insulin depending on how quickly they work, when they peak and how long they last. Insulin is available in different strengths; the most common is U-100. All insulin available in the United States is made in a laboratory.

When you have Type 2 diabetes your body makes insulin unlike Type 1 diabetes where your body does not make insulin. However, with type 2 your body doesn’t respond well to insulin.

With Type 2 Diabetes many are prescribed insulin. Insulin is a naturally occurring hormone secreted by the pancreas. There are more than 20 types of insulin sold in the United States. Each insulin works differently, and you will need to ask your health care professional if one is right for you.
