I did a paper on Functional Hypoglycemia a zillion years ago. I have a condition which puts me at high risk of diabetes. Some thoughts I'm not going to try to give citations for because it's based on decades of reading etc:
The liver stores sugars that the body calls upon when you are hypoglycemic. Liver support, such as milk thistle, may help. (Tldr: you need to provide the building blocks for glutathione, which the liver uses a lot of. It cannot be consumed directly and must be manufactured in house.)
Diabetes is associated with inflammation which may be caused by either infection or high acidity. You could get pH test strips to pee on and track your pH levels as another data stream and IF you see a correlation, treat that as well.
Functional Hypoglycemia was traditionally managed with diet. I managed mine that way for years. Avoiding sugars and having fatty, high protein foods late in the day helped prevent middle of the night severe hypoglycemic attacks.
Studies show aloe vera does good things for diabetes. Will it help T1? No idea.
But you could read up on that and firsthand experience suggests to me it may remedy other issues that are pertinent to diabetes but maybe not recognized as directly related because it's more like an underlying issue.

Suggests muscle protein impacts insulin resistance.
If you have glucose in interstitial fluid, physical activity may help.
