Hormones don’t get talked about enough in the Type 1 diabetes world — especially male hormones.In this live episode, I sit down with my good friend and colleague Type 1 Diabetic, registered dietitian and functional nutrition expert Kelly Schmidt to unpack testosterone, cortisol, thyroid health, sleep, labs, intimacy, and the systemic impact hormones have on blood sugar, energy, and quality of life.This conversation goes far beyond “low T.”This episode reinforces a powerful truth:Type 1 diabetes is not just a pancreas condition — it’s a systems condition.If you’ve been feeling fatigued, burned out, low energy, low drive, or just “off,” this episode will give you language and direction for your next conversation with your healthcare team.Important Resources We Discussed:Magnesium Glycinate & Other ImpactfulLab Panels - interpreted with a t1d lens (Kelly reads the labs and then explains the results in great detail.)Kelly's Previous Episodes:Diabetes Vulnerabilities - #135Debunking Diabetes Detox Myths - Episode #130Manipulating Your Blood Sugars During The Female Cycle - Episode #123The 5-Pillars to Healthy Blood Sugars - Episode #119Gut Health w/T1D Dietitian - Episode #117Food Sensitivities - Episode #72The Expert Dietitian Series - Part 3 - Episode #44The Expert Dietitian Series - Part 2 - Episode #40The Expert Dietitian Series - Part 1 - Episode #35Why Is Nutrition Important in Diabetes? - Episode #9🌐 Kelly Schmidt – T1D Functional Nutrition🌐 Website: SimplifyingDiabetes.com💪 Work with me: More Than A1C - 1on1 Coaching 📞 Schedule a Free Call: Book NowIf you enjoyed today’s episode, please subscribe and leave a 5-star review—it helps more people living with diabetes discover the podcast.
