Here’s what most people don’t know: type 1 is diagnosed in three stages, and only one of them involves insulin.

Stage 1 and Stage 2 are silent. Normal or near-normal blood sugars, no symptoms, no insulin — but the autoimmune process is already underway, and it’s detectable with one blood test.

Stage 3 is what most of us picture when we hear “type 1.” By then, insulin is non-negotiable and lifelong. Nothing replaces it — not diet, not supplements, not anything you’ll see sold on this app.

The point isn’t that insulin is avoidable. It’s that a diagnosis in Stage 1 or 2 means time: time to monitor, time to prevent DKA at onset, time to talk about therapies that can delay Stage 3.
