Is prolonged high glucose really that bad for you?

Our researchers are trying to find out, but we need your help for a new study looking at oxidative stress, blood glucose fluctuations and how it affects people living with type 1 diabetes.

Our researchers are trying to find out, but we need your help for a new study.

Years of exposure to hyperglycaemia in people with type 1 diabetes can eventually result in various health complications.

These complications are largely due to oxidative stress, which has not been thoroughly investigated in the context of daily blood glucose fluctuations.

This study will look at oxidative stress, blood glucose fluctuations and how it affects people living with type 1 diabetes.

To be eligible, participants need to be aged between 18-35 years and have type 1 diabetes.
