Glucose is carried to various tissues through the blood stream. For glucose to enter skeletal muscle, insulin (a hormone produced by the pancreas) must be present. Once glucose enters the body''s muscle cells, it can be broken down and used for energy or stored for later use. Individuals with type I diabetes are unable to produce enough insulin for this process to occur. Consequently, glucose is unable to enter muscle cells and builds up in the blood. Because type I diabetics have insufficient insulin production, daily insulin injections are required to maintain glucose levels as close to normal as possible. Thus, type I diabetics are insulin dependent. It is imperative for type I diabetics to regulate their glucose levels to help reduce the onset of complications from this disease. If glucose levels go unchecked for extended periods, type I diabetics are very susceptible to heart disease, kidney failure, and blindness and nerve dysfunction.
