system: What should you know about insulin and type 1 diabetes?
output: When your doctor talks about insulin, he'll mention three main things: " Onset" is the length of time before it reaches your bloodstream and begins lowering blood sugar. " Peak time" is the time when insulin is doing the most work in terms of lowering blood sugar. " Duration" is how long it keeps working after onset.
system: What types of insulin are available for people with type 1 diabetes?
output: Several types of insulin are available. Rapid-acting starts to work in about 15 minutes. It peaks around 1 hour after you take it and continues to work for 2 to 4 hours.

system: What does insulin do?
output: Type 1 diabetes happens when your immune system destroys cells in your pancreas called beta cells. Insulin is a hormone that helps move sugar, or glucose, into your body's tissues. Glucose doesn't move into your cells because insulin isn't there to do it. This causes high blood sugar, which can lead to: Dehydration. When there's extra sugar in your blood, you pee more. That's your body's way of getting rid of it. A large amount of water goes out with that urine, causing your body to dry out. Weight loss. The glucose that goes out when you pee takes calories with it. That's why many people with high blood sugar lose weight. Dehydration also plays a part. Diabetic ketoacidosis ( DKA). If your body can't get enough glucose for fuel, it breaks down fat cells instead. This creates chemicals called ketones. Your liver releases the sugar it stores to help out. But your body can't use it without insulin, so it builds up in your blood, along with the acidic ketones. This combination of extra glucose, dehydration, and acid buildup is known as "ketoacidosis" and can be life-threatening if not treated right away. Damage to your body. Over time, high glucose levels in your blood can harm the nerves and small blood vessels in your eyes, kidneys, and heart.
