 I just had my diabetes supplies changed by insurance without anyone even telling me.No notice. No consent. Just a different order showing up at my door.So I had to call in and figure it out myself.And instead of arguing, I used a few simple psychology-based tactics that completely changed how the conversation went… and I ended up not only fixing the issue, but getting extra supplies approved too.I broke down exactly what I did in this video — step by step — because this is something a lot of people living with diabetes quietly deal with, but don't really talk about. >> 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_imgToDpGrab your free ticket to this advanced T1D training here:https://diabetesinaction.comFree T1D Support Group Here: https://diabetesinaction.com/join-group-1---------Welcome to the Pardon My Pancreas podcast!!

Diabetic ketoacidosis is a familiar ED diagnosis, but the best fluid strategy is still up for debate. Many of us default to the traditional one‑bag system, even though it can be slow to adjust and prone to glucose swings. This new meta‑analysis compares one‑bag versus two‑bag DKA management across adults and children, examining hypoglycemia rates, time to resolution, and operational impact. Join Dr. Knudsen-Robbins as she breaks down what the evidence shows — and whether the two‑bag fluid system truly offers a clinical edge for treatment.

In this podcast, we are joined by Dr Alex Crichton, researcher at the Trisha Roy Vascular laboratory at Houston Methodist Hospital, Texas, to discuss how QISS MRA can be used to image tibial vessels that are often missed by more conventional forms of imaging such as CT angiography, ultrasound duplex imaging or digital subtraction angiography. Diabetic patients can be especially challenging in selecting target vessels for treatment because of the presence of calcium in the vessel wall and the distal nature of the disease. Furthermore, many of these patients have impaired renal function where the use of contrast media can be detrimental. In this episode, Dr Crichton explains the work being done with QISS MRA to enable visualisation of these so called “hibernating vessels” and also how it can be used to characterise plaque morphology and the suitability for endovascular intervention.

After 47 years with Type 1 Diabetes, Cathy thought she had already learned everything… until she discovered predictability.

Diabetes doesn't just affect blood sugar—it can quietly and progressively steal vision. In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong is joined by Dr. Matthew Cunningham, a retina specialist, to unpack diabetic macular edema (DME), one of the most common and underdiagnosed causes of vision loss among adults with diabetes.We explore how DME develops, why it often goes unnoticed until damage is already done, and what patients—and practitioners—can do to intervene earlier. The conversation also addresses a critical and often overlooked issue: the disproportionate burden of diabetic eye disease in the Black community and other underserved populations.Using the “All Eyes on DME” campaign as a springboard, this episode bridges clinical insight with real-world application—equipping listeners with the knowledge to protect their vision, advocate for better care, and age well with clarity and purpose.Learn more at https://www.alleyesondme.com/Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

Health insurance is one of those things that's genuinely important and genuinely confusing. When you're managing diabetes or any chronic illness, the stakes are a lot higher than for most people. One wrong plan choice can mean insulin coverage disappears, specialist visits become out-of-pocket, or you get hit with a bill you didn't see coming. Rob sits down with Dakota Myers, known online as The Benefits Boss, for a no-nonsense breakdown of health insurance fundamentals through the lens of chronic illness. Dakota walks through the terminology that trips most people up (premiums, deductibles, co-insurance, out-of-pocket maximums), explains the real difference between PPO, HMO, and HSA plans, and makes a compelling case for why working with a broker costs you nothing and can save you thousands. The conversation covers some genuinely useful stuff that most people don't know, like the Medicaid Decline Hack for getting back onto the marketplace outside of open enrollment, the COBRA backdating loophole for gap coverage, and how income and health status together should drive your marketplace vs. private plan decision. If you've ever stared at an open enrollment portal feeling completely overwhelmed, this one is for you. Dakota and his team at The Benefits Boss shop every plan in all 50 states, and as he puts it, the goal is always to build the best package for each individual situation, not to sell a product. By the end of this episode, you'll have a much cleaner framework for evaluating your options and asking the right questions.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!A client tells you they have diabetes, hands you their card, signs up for training and then refuses to get medical clearance. Do you keep the money and train them anyway, or do you draw a hard line and risk the refund? We walk through the real decision personal trainers face when safety, ethics, and liability collide, including why “it depends” really means “it depends on your documentation and your preparedness.” We break down the types of diabetes (type 1, type 2, and gestational) and what personal trainers are most likely to see in the gym. From there we get practical about diabetes and exercise: how full body strength training can drive glucose into working muscles, how blood glucose can drop into a hypoglycemic state, and what the warning signs can look like in real time. We also cover what actually helps in an emergency, why fast sugar wins, and why solid foods can create a choking risk when someone is woozy or fading. Then we zoom out to the professional standard of care: medical clearance, assessment, ACSM style risk stratification, and why a history like a prior heart attack changes everything. We also talk trainer insurance, what happens when things go to court, and how to turn clearance into a networking advantage by building a real relationship with a client's doctor. If you care about being a qualified personal trainer and protecting your clients, listen now, share this with a coach who needs it, and subscribe, rate, and leave a review so more trainers learn to do this the right way.Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

Are you Type 2 Diabetic, Pre-Diabetic, or Insulin Resistant? You probably don't have to avoid carbs forever...let's fix it. In this episode, Coach Justin and Coach Emily discuss how to reverse type 2 diabetes through diet and lifestyle changes. They explain the science behind insulin resistance, blood markers, and practical strategies for improving insulin sensitivity, including diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management. They talk about why Keto and Carnivore are not long term solutions, and why you don't have to fear carbs forever. You just have to get your body healthy enough to handle them again. Diet is King, but things like sleep, exercise, light exposure, and putting on muscle mass move the needle in the right direction significantly as well. We have a process for reversing these conditions that works every time if the person is consistent. The body is amazing, and can adapt and heal given the right inputs. Give it a listen here or wherever you get your podcasts! Just look up Bacon, Bibles, and Barbells! Enjoy the episode!

Elz runs out of gas, Di'Juan free ballin in his robe, and Episode of DJ Cool Green Apple.

Rob welcomes Dr. Nick Heath—an atmospheric scientist living with type 1 diabetes for 27+ years and known online as “The Breathing Diabetic”—to explore how breathing can become a practical lever for living well with diabetes. Nick shares his diagnosis at age 11 and how his “second diagnosis” moment came in his mid-20s when nutrition changes improved his control and opened his mindset to other tools within his control. That curiosity eventually led him into breathwork, first through Wim Hof and then more deeply through Patrick McKeown's The Oxygen Advantage, where the science around nasal breathing, slower breathing, and CO₂ tolerance clicked—followed by a noticeable improvement in his blood sugars after a few months of consistent practice. From there, the conversation gets tactical and evidence-driven: why breathing is uniquely powerful because it's both autonomic and voluntary, how airflow through the nose can influence brain activity and calm states, and how slow breathing can improve markers tied to autonomic function (like heart rate variability and baroreflex sensitivity) that are often reduced in people with diabetes. Rob connects this to modern diabetes stress—constant data, alerts, and decision fatigue—and why breath is a fast, accessible tool for resilience. Nick addresses the “woo vs. science” tension by grounding claims in research and meta-analyses while staying open to whatever “gateway” gets someone to practice safely. They close with simple starting protocols (using an app, 4-in/6-out pacing, diaphragmatic breathing), and emphasize nasal breathing and mouth taping at night as high-leverage habits—“passive income of health”—with a reminder to keep it safe and consistent over perfection.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, KJ sits down with Gennadi Seko, founder and CEO of Oxilight, who is revolutionizing wound care diagnostics by transforming smartphones into powerful medical imaging devices. Gennadi shares his personal journey from Bay Street finance to medical physics, driven by his grandmother's diabetic foot amputation. He discusses how his company is disrupting the medical device industry by making diagnostic technology portable, affordable, and accessible—moving critical wound care assessments from expensive hospital labs to patients' homes. This conversation explores the intersection of deep tech innovation, healthcare accessibility, and the power of multimodal diagnostics in saving lives and limbs. Four Key Takeaways [26:19] Multimodality is the Game Changer - Instead of multiple expensive single-purpose devices sitting on shelves, combining three technologies (multispectral imaging, fluorescence imaging, and thermal imaging) into one $200 smartphone attachment provides a 360-degree view of wound health and dramatically improves diagnostic specificity. [9:29] The Diabetes Crisis is Escalating - 27% of seniors (65+) in the United States have diabetes, and the disease is now affecting people as young as 25. Diabetic foot complications account for 80% of all non-traumatic amputations, making early detection critical. [21:44] Mobility Saves Lives and Money - Moving diagnostic technology to patients' homes solves the compliance problem and enables early intervention. Preventing one amputation saves healthcare systems 10x in costs while dramatically improving patient quality of life. [14:50] Physiological Imaging Beats Anatomical Measurement - Traditional wound measurement with rulers only tracks size over time, requiring multiple visits. Physiological imaging provides immediate prognostic information from a single snapshot, identifying whether a wound will heal normally or requires intervention. Quote of the Show (23:27): “I don't want to improve hospital healthcare. I want to improve healthcare in general." - Gennadi Seko Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

In today's Sugar Crush, Dr. Rick Jacoby and I unpacked diabetic ulcers-why sugar turns your foot into a hypoxic swamp, how ancient battlefield membranes are now off-the-shelf miracles at Quadratus, and why Medicare finally pays while HMOs stall like lazy rafts. From Sushruta grafting cheeks in 600 BC, to amniotic tissue kickstarting angiogenesis without stitches, we tied it all to the estuary: clean the upstream-diet, glyphosate, light-and the wound closes.
