Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition where the pancreas produces little to no insulin, which is a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels. People with type 1 diabetes need to take insulin injections or use an insulin pump to manage their blood sugar levels. It's essential for them to monitor their blood sugar regularly, follow a balanced diet, and stay physically active to maintain their health.
