Abstract

This report will aim to look at diabetes, its causes, symptoms and treatment in children. Commonly thought of as a 'mild' condition, the seriousness of diabetes is often not recognized; therefore this report shall attempt to illustrate the potential risks involved, whilst raising awareness of the condition. The digestion of starchy foods, sugar and other sweet foods all produce glucose, as well as the liver which produces glucose naturally. 'Diabetes mellitus is a condition in which the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood is too high because the body cannot use it properly'. This occurs when the insulin produced by the pancreas is not sufficient to allow the glucose to enter the cells to be used as fuel. Without insulin this process cannot take place proving fatal.
