Genetics (specific HLA types, having the AIRE gene mutation, Northern European decent, and other genetic factors we don't know about).
Having other autoimmune diseases yourself (Rheumatoid arthritis, MS etc.) or in your family.
Having a family history of Type 1 diabetes.
Early exposure to casein (cow's milk protein) and gluten are *possibly* linked to Type 1, but this has not been proven. Dietary lectins have also been linked to autoimmunity. The problem is that people with autoimmune diseases have a "leaky gut" and let all or any of these foreign proteins in, triggering an autoimmune response. That said, the problem is really with the leaky gut, and not the foods. We can avoid casein and gluten in our diets, but lectins are in practically everything. A person would not be able to eat anything.
Viruses (coxsackie, retroviruses) are also seen as another trigger. Type 1 diabetes apparently needs to have more than 1 trigger to develop in people whose genes out them at risk.
However, if your genetic tendancy is extremely high, almost anything can trigger the disease. For example, kids with the AIRE gene mutation have an 80% (!) risk of Type 1 early in life. Perhaps these kids have a very leaky gut as well, and let in more possible triggers.
Vitamin D is now in trials to see if it can help prevent Type 1 as an immune modulator.
In theory, a lack of Omega 3 fatty acids can also predispose to inflammatory diseases like T1 if your genes put you at risk.
So, a gluten free/casein free diet (lectin free is impossible), antioxidants and Omega 3 EFA's, and vitamin D should all be taken advantage of dietary wise if you are at high risk (have a family history or related T1 genes) of T1.
Of course, there is no way to actually prevent Type 1 at this point, and we are unsure of how much (if any) these things will help. It can't hurt to try though, and there is evidence to suggest that some people really may benefit.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.
Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

For Diabetes type 1 the strongest cause factor is heriditry & the total unability of pancrease to secreate insulin which is a function of Beta cells. They are destroyed by autoi mmune type reaction . Another associates cause may be viral infection like coxacske virus ,but not by drinking cows milk. The genes resposible for are mutant.

Diabetes type 1 has been demonstrated to be caused by the consumption of cows milk (to the satisfaction of many of us, though not the dairy industry). One benefit of giving milk to the young is that they receive antibodies from the mother to protect them from disease. There is an antibody in cows milk that some children respond to by launching an attack on their own pancreas, which destroys the insulin producing cells.

Wet food is better for their health. Dry food can make them get constipated and prevent them from having a bowel movement. I feed my two cats both though, it is just that a couple months ago the dry food did that to one of my cats and he ended up in the animal hospital for a couple days. it just depends on the cat though.
