In a person with type 1 Diabetes, the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This results in little to no insulin production, leading to elevated blood glucose levels. Without insulin, the body cannot effectively utilize glucose for energy, which can cause symptoms like excessive thirst, frequent urination, and fatigue. Long-term high blood sugar can lead to serious complications affecting the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and cardiovascular system.
