About This EpisodeGoing low carb has been the 'magical solution' recommended to people with Type 1 Diabetes for decades. While carbs are the biggest factor (in terms of speed/quantity) that influence blood sugar, not eating them doesn't necessarily mean you will find managing type 1 diabetes easier. There are so many other aspects to managing t1d well, and we talk about whether low carb (or another tool/strategy) could be the right option for you in this episode.
