Priyanka Chopra is opening up about what life is like with husband Nick Jonas, who is a type 1 diabetic.

The 37-year old actress described how much she admires Jonas' dedication to his healthon "The View"Tuesday.

Initially, when we first got married, I couldnt wrap my brain around the fact that he knew when his sugar dropped, even whilehe was sleeping, shesaid. He feels it.

Though she trusts Jonas' "crazy discipline" about monitoring his blood sugar, Chopra confessed she "used to wake up in the middle of the night" to make sure her husband was OK.

She also praised Jonas, 27, for not letting his disorder affect the way he lives.

"He lives the biggest life possible," she said."He's not restricted himself from anything. He plays sports. He's touring. He lives an incredible life, and it's so inspiring to see."

This passion for living life to the fullest, Chopra said, is what inspired Jonas to found Beyond Type 1, a nonprofit organization dedicated to diabetes education, advocacy and the path to a cure.

"That's what he wanted to show people," Chopra said. "That even if you have type 1 diabetes doesn't mean that your life has to be different. You can live it to its fullest, and it's so inspiring to me."

According to Mayo Clinic, type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Though there is no cure, treatment "focuses onmanaging blood sugar levels with insulin, diet and lifestyle to prevent complications."
