 Child diabetes is a serious chronic condition with potentially critical complications
and requires lifelong monitoring and treatment. There have been tremendous advances in the treatment of child diabetes and
monitoring blood glucose levels has made diabetes easier to deal with.Child Diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes or type 1 diabetes, is an autoimmune disorder
in which the pancreas does not produce insulin, which controls the level of blood sugar in the body.
Parents have to stay alert for signs of high and low blood sugar in their children with diabetes.
Parents need to establish a child diabetes management program.
Diabetes management includes developing healthy eating habits, scheduling a daily routine
for meals and snacks; exercise; and testing blood glucose levels four times a day.
Always prepare for child diabetes by providing glucose tablets or some healthy source of sugar to combat low blood sugar.
Also encourage your child to be involved in school, social, and sports activities.

parents, as well as to teachers and others who interact with children or teenagers who have diabetes.
