Type 1 Diabetes

Good nutrition is a key component in managing diabetes.

Diabetes is a condition in which your body cannot properly use and store food energy. This energy comes from a sugar called glucose this is found in foods like cereals, breads and other grain products, vegetables and fruits, and some dairy. Individuals with type 1 diabetes cannot produce insulin, a hormone that helps control the level of glucose in the blood.

It is important for diabetics to control blood glucose and this can be done in part by eating healthy foods, by being active as well as by partnering with the appropriate healthcare provider.
