I have a question about this episode #927 Omnipod 5 is a Great Teammate and this Navigating Diabetes Choices. Hey Gary, I've been a follower of yours for a long time. I love your content and the message you're sending out to the world. I wanted to ask, I am a type 1 diabetic; I became diabetic just before my 18th birthday. I have always been a healthy and athletic man, and now more than ever. You speak a lot about type 2 diabetes but never really about type 1. I am curious if you know anything that the masses may not about this condition. I never truly understood why I became diabetic, and neither did the doctors. I know the general explanation of why and how it happens, but there has never been a root cause explanation. I am 22 now and doing great living as a diabetic with excellent sugar and A1C levels, but I'm always interested to know and learn more. Thanks for all you are doing in the world for healthy living.
After watching some of your videos, I am now concerned my days are numbered. I am diabetic, on a lot of medications, and three different types of insulin. I can't get my sugar levels down, and now I am scared I don't have much time to do what I want in life. I am 61 years old. I also receive shots in my back called bupivacaine. What can I do? My brother and sister, both with diabetes, passed very young, and neither made it past 65. Is there any hope for me? I got the red light thing today and also started the breathing thing this morning, although I may not have done it right, as I didn't get lightheaded. I am on a lot of vitamins, including Magnesium, Benfotiamine (Vitamin B1), Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), Omega-3 (Fish Oil), and Vitamin B12. I just need to add the D3 with K2.
