    Food Stress & Body Image with Diabetes: The Struggle Is Real

    Many diabetics have a complicated relationship with food and their bodies.

We cover: The most common food and body struggles people with diabetes faceCait and Tracy’s own stories with binge eating and negative self-talk.Why diabetes increases the risk of eating disorders.Practical strategies for breaking these patterns.How to find professional help from someone who "gets it".If you're a diabetic struggling with these issues, here are some helpful resources.

    High Carb Eating for Diabetes with Robby Barbaro

    You've probably heard that carbs are the enemy. And it makes sense. A carb-free meal can make for nice, steady post-meal glucose levels. But what if there's another way?  New York Times bestselling author and type 1 diabetic Robby Barbaro has pioneered a diet that aims to increase insulin sensitivity and reduce long-term health issues for all kinds of diabetes and prediabetes with a vegan, low-fat, high-carb approach.  His stats say it all: 90% time in range and an insulin to carb ratio of 75:1. That's just 1 unit of insulin for 75g of carbs or around 4 bananas!!! The standard dose is 10:1. Plus, he's a three time Ironman.   In this episode, we speak to Robby about: Why insulin sensitivity matters.How dietary fat impacts insulin needs.What a health, high-carb diet looks like.Insulin timing, slower eating, and other tips for glucose management.Risks and challenges when transitioning to this diet.Resources: 1. @mindfuldiabeticrobby on Insta 2.
