Regular physical activity has significant health benefits for people with diabetes, including improved blood glucose control, reduced risk of heart disease and weight control. Aerobic activities like walking and strength training are recommended. Aim for at least 30 minutes per day of moderate intensity activity, in sessions of 10 minutes or more. It's important to check blood glucose levels before, during, and after exercise and be aware of symptoms of low blood sugar.

The document discusses stress, how it affects both the mind and body, and how to manage stress when living with diabetes. It explains that stress causes the body's "fight or flight" response which increases heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and blood glucose levels. While stress itself is not harmful, the way people deal with stress can impact their health and diabetes management. The document provides examples of both healthy and unhealthy ways of coping with stress, and advises talking to doctors if stress symptoms last more than a few weeks, as it could be a sign of anxiety or depression.
This document summarizes the common complications of diabetes and provides information on how to reduce risks. The most common complications are damage to large blood vessels (heart attack, stroke) and small blood vessels (eyes, kidneys, nerves, feet). Keeping blood glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol at recommended levels can significantly reduce complication risks. This includes eating healthy, exercising, not smoking, weight control, and regular medical checks. Preventing and treating complications early is important to staying well with diabetes.
Physical activity can affect blood glucose levels in both ways. It usually lowers blood glucose levels due to muscles using more glucose and increased insulin sensitivity. However, physical activity sometimes increases blood glucose levels temporarily due to stress hormones or if the child is unwell. Children with type 1 diabetes should test their blood glucose before physical activity and carry hypo treatment with them, as activity may cause hypos up to 16 hours later.
This document provides information and guidance for maintaining a regular aerobic exercise routine to help manage diabetes. It recommends engaging in moderate to vigorous aerobic activity for 150 minutes per week. Tips are given for creating SMART goals, rewarding accomplishments, varying activities to prevent boredom, exercising with others for motivation, and planning for times when exercise is difficult to maintain progress safely and sustainably over the long term.
Type 1 diabetes occurs when the pancreas is unable to produce enough insulin. Insulin acts as a key to allow glucose from food to enter cells and provide energy. Without enough insulin, glucose remains in the bloodstream causing abnormally high blood glucose levels. Symptoms of high blood glucose include increased thirst, fatigue, frequent urination, stomach pain, weight loss, and general feelings of being unwell. Type 1 diabetes is treated through lifelong insulin therapy via injections or pump, healthy eating, physical activity, blood glucose monitoring, and regular medical checkups. While genes may increase risk, type 1 diabetes develops when environmental triggers cause the immune system to destroy insulin-producing cells in the pancreas.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

• Insulin and blood glucose test strips are stable at room temperature under
30 degrees. They will be damaged by temperature extremes so must not be
frozen or left in the sun or heat for any length of time. If you are likely to be
in very hot or cold places, take a small insulated bag which you can buy from
your State or Territory Diabetes Organisation (phone 1300 136 588).
• Take a small approved sharps container (available from your State or Territory
Diabetes Organisation or your pharmacy) for your used lancets and syringes.
You can then dispose of it when you come across a sharps disposal service,
offered by many hotels and most airports.
• Accuracy of blood glucose results is also affected by temperature at the time
of operation. As temperature ranges vary for conducting a test, consult your
meter user manual for your meter’s operational temperature range.
• Wear some form of medical identification that says you have diabetes.
• When travelling long distances, try to take regular meal breaks and do some
type of physical activity.
• The excitement of the trip may affect your blood glucose levels so check
your levels more often. If you’re using insulin, always have a hypo pack
with you and know how to adjust your dose. Discuss with your doctor or
diabetes educator.
• Carry a small first aid kit with you in case of aches and pains, minor cuts
and burns.
• Wear comfortable, well-fitting shoes.
Contact your State or Territory Organisation for a Travel Checklist for People
with Type 1 Diabetes to help you plan for a safe and hassle-free trip.

find at your destination), how to cope with changes in time zones, possibly
vaccinations and extreme climates. You will also need to be well prepared for
mishaps such as long delays and misplaced baggage.
Before you go
There are many things to consider before you leave, such as airline regulations,
a well-timed itinerary, in-flight needs and being prepared for that ‘what-if’ situation.
Good planning is the key.

3. Making your bookings
• When booking your flights, you may choose to tell the airline you have
diabetes. This will be passed on to the cabin crew who will then be better able
to meet your needs.
• Many airlines offer meals suitable for people with diabetes. Remember, there
needs to be adequate carbohydrates in the meal you order so it’s a good idea
to check what’s available. Carry additional food (particularly carbohydrate
foods) with you to ensure you have enough to eat during your flight and to
cover any delays you might experience.
Staying well during your travels
• Talk to your doctor about your travel plans, if possible at least two months
before leaving. It is important to discuss your medication/insulin adjustments,
Glucagon and testing for ketones during the trip. This is also a good time to
arrange the papers you will need to comply with airline security regulations
(DOTARS – Department of Transport and Regional Services www.dotars.gov.au).
• Talk to your dietitian about the types of food and cuisines you are likely to find
at your destination.
• If your planned trip has different time zones, your doctor or diabetes educator
will advise you on when to take your medications and/or your insulin.
• During long hauls, support hose can help to prevent swelling and may reduce
the risk of clotting in the veins of the legs. Check first with your diabetes health
care team if this is suitable for you.
• Important information about any vaccinations required can be obtained from
your doctor or specialised travel medical centre. They will also advise you of
other tablets you may need to take with you just in case, to treat diarrhoea or
nausea. Helpful websites include:
• www.dotars.gov.au • www.medicareaustralia.gov.au

4. Making the most of travel insurance
You should have travel insurance, both for your health and your belongings.
Make sure your accident and health cover applies both to pre-existing
conditions and the places you will visit. For information call your State or
Territory Diabetes Organisation on 1300 136 588.
The Australian Government has arrangements with a range of countries
providing travellers with benefits similar to Medicare if needed, but only for
acute or emergency care. In this event, you would need to produce your
Medicare card. For more information, call Medicare Australia on 6124 6333 or
visit their website www.medicareaustralia.gov.au.
Complying with Australian airline security regulations
Make arrangements in advance to be sure you comply with Australian airline
security regulations specifically for people with diabetes. If travelling with a non-
Australian carrier, check well in advance with your chosen airline for specific
security guidelines.
Australian airline security regulations are:
• Diabetes supplies including testing equipment, insulin, Glucagon, syringes,
pen needles and insulin pump consumables carried on board must be in the
hand baggage of the person who has diabetes and whose name appears
on the airline ticket. Remember that items in checked-in baggage may be
exposed to extreme temperature variations and may become unusable.
• All prescription medications, including your insulin and/or Glucagon, are to be
carried in the packaging dispensed by the pharmacist with the label displaying
your name clearly visible.
• Carry several copies of a letter from your doctor (check before you leave that
it is readable) which you will need to get through customs. The letter should
outline your medical conditions, the medications you take and the devices you
use for your insulin and blood glucose testing such as insulin pens, syringes
and needles or pump unit. It should also stress the importance of carrying your
medications with you. For those using an insulin pump, the letter must stress
the need for the pump to be worn at all times.
• Australian airline regulations limit the amount of liquids (including aerosols
and gels) carried by international travellers in their carry-on baggage. Each
container must not exceed 100ml and must fit into a transparent re-sealable
plastic bag no larger than one litre (approx 20cm x 20cm) which can be
purchased from the supermarket or at the airport. While people with diabetes
who need to carry supplies of insulin are exempt, they will be required
to present their insulin at the security checkpoint and carry proof of their
condition and their need for insulin (ie: letter from your doctor as above).

5. Rights of people with diabetes during security check
People with diabetes are entitled to request access to a private consultation
room if discussion about their condition is required at the security checkpoint.
If they feel it necessary, they also have the right to ask to speak with the airport
manager on duty.
People with diabetes using an insulin pump should not remove their pump at
the security checkpoint. This should not be requested by security staff but if
there are concerns, the person with diabetes has the right to request privacy
which staff are obligated to provide.
Insulin pumps do not affect the aircraft’s electronic systems and must not be
switched off during the flight. People wearing continuous electronic devices to
monitor blood glucose levels may need to switch them off during take-off and
landing. Check with the airline.
Before travelling always check www.dotars.gov.au for the latest regulations.
At the airport
• Arrive early to avoid rushing.
• It is considered unlikely that insulin would be harmed by exposure to x-rays
in security equipment. However, if you are concerned, you may ask airport
security staff to physically check you and your baggage rather than you and
your baggage going through the x-ray equipment. Security staff members
are obliged to respond to such a request under regulations administered by
the responsible Federal agency, the Department of Transport and Regional
Services (DOTARS).
