Type 1 Diabetes a Autoimmune disorder!

In the case of Type 1 Diabetes, the islet cells of the pancreas that produce insulin are seen as the "enemy" (antigent) by mistake.

The body then creates antibodies to fight this ''enemy'' and destroys the islet cells ability to produce insulin.

Insulin a hormone needed to bring glucose into the cells for energy metabolism.

The lack of sufficient insulin thereby results in diabetes. (Type 1 diabetes)
