UNDERSTANDING INSULIN
• Hormone produced in
pancreas for getting glucose
(sugar) into the cells for energy
for the body
• When body overwhelmed by
too much sugar, insulin cannot
be produced fast enough to
process it and the body
becomes glucose-intolerant
TYPE I DIABETES
• Classic form of diabetes
– Traditionally diagnosed in
children or young adults – usually
by age 30
– Often considered to be genetic
– Body does not produce insulin
– Body’s immune system destroys
insulin-producing cells in the
pancreas
– Also known as “juvenile onset”
TYPE II DIABETES
• Type II represents 90-95%
• Can be present in children
• Pre-diabetes also increases risk of
heart disease.

– About 4% of pregnancies
– Increases complications for
mother and child.
• Generally manifests later in life and
may have a nutritional origin

STRESS

stress

EXERCISE

effects
