"Diabetes is a condition in which the body is not producing enough insulin or the body cells do not respond properly which results in an elevated blood sugar level.
Diabetes is known as an illness for adults. But as years goes by and as the world develops, patients who have been diagnosed with DM is getting younger and younger.
Type 1 or Juvenile diabetes is the most common diabetes in children. Almost 90-95% at the age of below 16 has this type of diabetes. This is due to the failure of the pancreas to produce insulin. This type of diabetes where the immune system attacks one of the body's own organ or tissue is classified as an autoimmune disease. Here, the insulin-producing cells which are found in the pancreas are being destroyed.
Child diabetes has the same symptoms as the adult have: thirst, weight loss, tiredness, and frequent urination. These symptoms tend to show on over a few weeks. Tummy pains, behavioral problems and headaches are some typical symptoms in children."
