Answer & explanation:
Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease in which the individual's pancreas has complications to the point of producing little or no insulin, characterizing excess blood glucose.
When we get sick, the body usually produces additional glucose for infection-fighting processes.
A diabetic organism usually uses other compounds (such as ketones) in order to complement the missing glucose, these processes, however, can bring several complications, such as blood acidification.
The best advices for a diabetic individual to avoid this type of complication is to always check his/her glucose level, and also to be aware of the vaccination against influenza and pneumonia (considering that in diabetics this risk is greater).
In addition, a doctor must be consulted if the diabetic person contracts flu, obeying the treatment plan and avoiding self-medication at all costs.
