Insulin is essential every day 💙

For people living with type 1 diabetes (T1D), blood sugar is affected by more than food. Exercise, stress, illness, excitement, and many everyday factors can all play a role.

Because their bodies no longer produce insulin, people with T1D rely on insulin therapy to help manage blood glucose levels every day.

Swipe to learn more about insulin and its role in managing T1D.
