Listen Later

If something doesn't work for you, you have the power to change it!


Meet Anna Williams. Type 1 of 19 years. For four years, Anna ate primarily keto (low carb, high fat). While she thought it was best for her blood sugars, she realized it wasn't best for her relationship with diabetes.

Inside this podcast episode, Anna shares more about her decision to change her diet to incorporate more carbs and how she's done it while improving blood sugars.
