We talk about how she builds stories that connect with readers of any age, the themes and influences that shape her work, and what it's like making comics as both an artist and a storyteller. We'll also dive into projects like The Ghost of the Stella Cadente and Pajama Rants: Life with Diabetes, plus where her comics are headed next.

Dr. Sunil Gupta highlighted that insulin remains the most effective and life-saving treatment for diabetes, especially when oral medications fail. He explained that many people with Type 2 diabetes eventually require insulin, and delaying its initiation can lead to serious complications such as neuropathy, retinopathy, kidney disease, heart disease and diabetic foot problems. Addressing common fears, he clarified that modern insulin pens are almost painless and newer insulin analogues closely mimic natural insulin action, significantly reducing the risk of hypoglycaemia, particularly at night. He stressed the importance of regular blood sugar monitoring, HbA1c testing and annual health check-ups after 30 years of age, noting that many individuals with diabetes may remain asymptomatic. He also drew attention to insulin-requiring diabetes in undernourished adults in India and the need for timely specialist referral. Kavita Gupta emphasized healthy dietary practices, explaining why whole fruits are better than fruit juices due to fiber and lower glycaemic index. She advised consuming low-GI foods and shared practical tips to prevent hypoglycaemia through timely meals and planned nutrition, especially for children, the elderly, and physically active individuals.

Poep als medicijn: het klinkt vreemd, maar voor sommige patiënten is het letterlijk levensreddend. In deze aflevering van BNR Beter hoe gezonde ontlasting, in de vorm van een speciale pil, wordt gebruikt om ernstige ziektes te bestrijden. Presentator Stijn Goossens spreekt met Liz Terveer, medisch microbioloog bij het LUMC en hoofd van de Nederlandse Donor Feces Bank, en met Nordin Hanssen, internist bij het Amsterdam UMC. Beiden doen onderzoek naar de rol van het microbioom bij ziekte én naar een opvallende innovatie: de zogenoemde poeppil. Op dit moment krijgen patiënten met terugkerende, ernstige diarree door de Clostridioides difficile-bacterie vaak een fecestransplantatie, ofwel poeptransplantatie, via een slang door de neus naar de darm. Dat werkt snel en effectief, maar is belastend en duur. Onderzoekers werken daarom aan een alternatief in capsulevorm. Zo’n poeppil zou de behandeling eenvoudiger, goedkoper en beter schaalbaar kunnen maken – al blijkt uit het onderzoek dat daarbij ook belangrijke bacteriën verloren kunnen gaan. Hanssen onderzoekt hoe het microbioom een rol speelt bij auto-immuunziekten zoals diabetes type 1. De hypothese: door onze steeds hygiënischer leefstijl, het veelvuldig gebruik van antibiotica en veranderingen in voeding, krijgt het immuunsysteem minder ‘training’ van darmbacteriën. Dat zou kunnen bijdragen aan de sterke toename van auto-immuunziekten. Ook komt aan bod hoe fecestransplantaties mogelijk levensreddend zijn bij kwetsbare patiëntengroepen, zoals mensen met leukemie na een beenmergtransplantatie, en waarom het microbioom mogelijk invloed heeft op het succes van immuuntherapie bij kanker.

For the past few months, I've been working as a teaching assistant in a special educational needs school and whilst there are lots of psychological reflections and lessons I could talk about, there is one I want to focus on. The link between anxiety and diabetes. This relationship is something I've seen first-hand multiple times as a teaching assistant and as an aspiring psychologist, I always enjoy learning about the relationship between psychological experiences, like anxiety, and how they impact our physical health like diabetes. Therefore, by the end of this biological psychology podcast episode, you'll learn how does anxiety impact diabetes, why does this happen and more. If you enjoy learning about the mind-body connection, clinical psychology and biopsychology, then this will be a brilliant episode for you.

Children, particularly those under the age of seven, seem to develop more aggressive type 1 diabetes than those diagnosed later in life. Researchers at the University of Exeter studied pancreas samples from 250 donors, allowing them to see how the beta cells which produce the hormone insulin formed normally and in type 1.儿童,尤其是七岁以下的儿童,似乎比在年龄更大时诊断出的人 1 型糖尿病发展得更凶猛。埃克塞特大学的研究人员仔细研究了来自 250 名捐赠者的胰腺样本,这让他们得以一窥产生胰岛素这种激素的胰岛 β 细胞在正常人的胰腺和 1 型糖尿病患者的胰腺中形成方式的区别。They showed early in life the beta cells live in small clusters which are easy for the immune system to pick off and destroy. The researchers say it's a really significant finding and that the future was looking much brighter with drugs that can slow the immune system's attack.这些样本显示出在生命早期胰岛 β 细胞会以小团的形式存在,这让免疫系统能够轻易地识别并破坏它们。研究人员称这项发现意义重大,它为糖尿病治疗的未来带来了希望,因为将会有可以减缓免疫系统攻击的药物。

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral! Hope you and your family are well.. I'm wondering about some ingredients in supplements, how to know which are ok? Have you maybe done a podcast about it ? It would be great to have a check list when it comes to supplements, please.. For example, gellan gum? You've said xanthan gum is not ok, guar is ok, what about the others? And I am wondering about other ingredients as well, fillers and additives.. which are ok and which are not Thank you so much! Happy healing to everyone! Rachel: Love your podcast thank you for all you do and hope to become an IHP one day! Anyway, this question is about my Dad. I have been doing some research, but would love your advice. He is 66 years old with diabetes and takes metformin. He has recently developed the early onset of neuropathy in his foot. What can he do to help slow the progression or even reserve the neuropathy? Supplement suggestions or diet advice? Thanks so much! Sarah: Hi Dr. Cabral! Will you please suggest an all natural method to get rid of flat warts I have all over my legs? I did run the big five labs and I've been working on all the imbalances for six months now, but the flat warts have not budged. Thank you so much for all you do! Tony: Hello Dr. Cabral, Suffered some early trauma and have had chronic stress most of my life. Never ate vegetables and fruits growing up. Now, @34 I have sibo, dysbiosis, leaky gut and nervous system dysregulation. Working on them with the DESTRESS protocol,and therapy. Wondering how to introduce new foods. I'm not kidding when I say I've been on a restricted diet my whole life and new foods cause immune flares and can tank me for a few days. I'm sure like the graduated exercise program in IHP, it's about introducing them slowly and letting the immune system adapt, but wondering if you had any tips on food expansion. Ran the big 5. Low potassium/sodium. DHEA of 3, some yeast and fungal markets elevated. Want to regulate nervous system and repair my gut over the next 12 months. Thanks! Kelsey: Hi Dr. Cabral! Hoping you can shed some light on this. After coming off hormonal birth control earlier this year, my cycle has been irregular and my PMS symptoms have become intense. I'm wondering how long it typically takes the endocrine system to rebalance? I'm also curious if supporting the liver or increasing certain micronutrients might help speed the process.

Send us a textIn this episode, the boys present another of their popular Dynamite Conspiracies episodes, in which they ask if there is a "Sugar cover-up"?But what are your thoughts on this topic?Do you agree with Tony and Tayo on this?Or do you have other thoughts?Items used during the show:The "Sugar Cover-Up": In the 1960s, the sugar industry paid Harvard scientists (Project 226) to shift the blame for heart disease from sugar to saturated fat. This led to the "Low Fat" craze, where manufacturers removed fat from food but replaced it with massive amounts of sugar to make it taste good.The "Ancel Keys" Effect: Discuss the "Seven Countries Study." Keys famously cherry-picked data to prove fat was bad, conveniently leaving out countries (like France and West Germany) that ate lots of fat but had low heart disease.The "Profit" Motive: A cured diabetic buys no drugs. A managed diabetic is a customer for life. Is the push against "Keto" (which can reverse Type 2) actually about protecting pharmaceutical revenue?-https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/34/Supplement_2/S132/28705/Hypoglycemia-and-Cardiovascular-Risks-https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/07/1138732Tune in and listen to the discussion.

Hey Diabuddy thank you for listening to show, send me some positive vibes with your favorite part of this episode.In this powerful and deeply human episode, I sit down with Jillian, who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at just 7 years old in 1991 — growing up in what many now call the dark ages of diabetes care.Jillian's story is layered, emotional, and incredibly insightful. Raised by a mother who also lived with Type 1 diabetes, she navigated childhood, adolescence, eating disorders, evolving technology, and eventually three healthy pregnancies— all while learning what actually works for her body through Dr Richard K. Bernstein's teachings.

A large cardiovascular outcomes trial in high-risk adults with type 2 diabetes showed that a dual incretin therapy was noninferior to an established comparator for major adverse cardiovascular events over four years, with similar overall safety but more gastrointestinal side effects and no added cardiovascular benefit. Separate trials demonstrated that a single-bolus thrombolytic was as effective and safe as standard infusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke while simplifying workflows, and that vascular brain injury and inherited risk independently increase dementia risk, underscoring the importance of aggressive management of modifiable vascular factors.

I wasn't exercising… but my blood sugar was dropping.Cold weather. Stress. Shivering. And a lesson I didn't expect to learn.Last weekend, I sang in a church choir for the first time — in front of 2,800 people — and my blood sugar behaved in a way that completely surprised me. I did everything “right,” yet my numbers kept falling.Instead of panicking, I stayed curious… and what I discovered changed how I think about stress, cold exposure, and blood sugar management forever.This isn't just about diabetes. It's about understanding your body instead of fighting it. It's about freedom, not perfection. >> ENJOY!Join The Tribe: https://thewarriorstribe.comPurchase your copy of "The Blood Sugar Freedom Formula" book TODAY!https://www.amazon.com/dp/1964811880?psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&ref_=chk_typ_quicklook_imgToDpFree T1D Support Group Here: https://diabetesinaction.com/join-group-1---------Welcome to the Pardon My Pancreas podcast!!

In Part 2 of the diabetes series I continue the conversation with Dr. Patrice Prout as we shift from preventing diabetes to living well with it.A diabetes diagnosis can feel overwhelming, restrictive, and confusing. But it does not mean your life is over or that food, movement, and enjoyment are off limits.In this episode, we break down what actually changes after a diagnosis and what does not.Dr. Prout explains how people living with diabetes can safely use exercise to control blood sugar without dangerous crashes, why many long-standing nutrition myths still cause unnecessary fear, and how to handle cravings and social situations without feeling isolated.We also dive into the often-ignored role of stress and how day-to-day emotional pressure can quietly sabotage blood sugar control even when food and exercise look “perfect.”Most importantly, we share the mindset shift that every newly diagnosed person needs early on to make diabetes easier to manage in the long-term.Key TakeawaysPrediabetes vs Diabetes: What truly changes after diagnosis and what stays the sameSafe Exercise Strategies: How to move confidently without triggering blood sugar lowsNutrition Myths: Common beliefs that create fear and unnecessary restrictionReal Life Eating: How to manage cravings, social events, and balance without guiltStress & Blood Sugar: Why stress management matters just as much as food and exerciseDiabetes management is about consistency, not perfectionYou can still enjoy food while supporting stable blood sugarReducing stress often improves blood sugar more than cutting another carbUnderstanding your body early makes long term management far easierIf you or someone you love is living with diabetes, this episode will help you replace fear with clarity and control.Living well with diabetes is possible. And it starts with understanding, not restriction.Subscribe and learn more athttps://supremeholisticfitness.com/Follow me on Instagram@keeontaylorThings Learned

On episode 1 of Doing Well with Diabetes Season 2 Rob opens with a global nutritionist panel featuring three voices from three continents—Ravi Subramanian (India/Australia), Sally Anne Shirto (Zimbabwe/South Africa), and Marina Cavalin (Brazil). Each shares how diabetes shaped their lives, their careers, and the way they support others in their communities. The episode tracks the realities of type 1 and type 2 diabetes across vastly different health systems, highlighting gaps in education, access to insulin and supplies, food insecurity, misinformation, cultural nutrition challenges, and the emotional and physical toll of the condition worldwide. Through personal stories—from childhood polo matches with royalty to managing a teen's diabetes in an under-resourced setting—the conversation reinforces a central theme: education, movement, and community support remain the strongest levers for improving global health and wellbeing for people with diabetes.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Maggie Frank, the national educator for CV Sciences, makers of PlusCBD Oil.
Exploring the Benefits and Science of CBD and Canna Mimetics with Expert Maggie Frank, the national educator for CV Sciences, makers of PlusCBD Oil. She has a deep-dive into the latest updates on CBD (cannabidiol) products, their benefits, and distinctions from THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). Frank explains the endocannabinoid system and how phytocannabinoids like CBD can help achieve homeostasis in the body, aiding in stress management, inflammation, and gut health. They discuss the nuances of different cannabis plants, the current landscape of CBD research, and the misconceptions around THC use. Additionally, Maggie introduces some innovative CV Sciences products, including those that do not contain CBD but offer similar benefits through canna mimetics—natural compounds that mimic the effects of cannabinoids. Among these products are a focus-enhancing gummy and a metabolic support formulation called ReShape. They also touch upon upcoming legislation and how it impacts the hemp industry. The discussion highlights the broad-spectrum potential of CBD and related compounds in promoting overall health and addressing various conditions.
