Explanation:

Type I diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the body's immune system attacks and destroys the insulin - producing cells in the pancreas. There is currently no cure for type I diabetes. Management of type I diabetes involves daily tasks such as blood glucose monitoring, insulin administration (either via injections or an insulin pump), and careful attention to diet and physical activity. Since there is no cure, these management tasks are required for the rest of the individual's life.
