Answer #1

No,a person with type 1 diabetic on insulin injection everyday cannot be considered healthy.

According to WHO,majority of death reported in 2016 were due to diabetes.They states that in type 1 diabetes,insufficient production of insulin happens and thus daily insulin injections are necessary.Checking blood glucose level daily, loading doses of insulin and planning the diet accordingly, will bring down a person emotionally to some extent.In such a situation mental well being cannot be claimed as per the WHO definition of health. If considering the physical state,changes in sleep patterns and appetite,feeling tiredness in a type 1 diabetes insulin injecting person cannot have physical well being.
