Autoimmune Type 1 Diabetes: Causes and Treatment

Type 1 Diabetes, previously known as juvenile diabetes, is an autoimmune disease that is usually diagnosed in children and young adults. In this condition, the body does not produce insulin. What causes Type 1 Diabetes? How to treat it effectively?

Causes of Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes is characterized by the production of autoantibodies-antibodies that target the body's own tissues and cells, that target the insulin-secreting beta cells of the pancreas. Without adequate insulin, blood sugar levels rise.
This form of diabetes is often found in association with other autoimmune disorders, especially those endocrine disorders, particularly those affecting thyroid and adrenal function.

Type 1 Diabetes is responsible for most cases of diabetes in children up to the age of 12 years. Most people who develop this illness do not have a family history. However, there is a definite genetic component.
