Love the podcast but hate taking notes? The Diabetes Podcast Blog compresses every episode into a bulleted, 10 minute read AND has the podcast embedded so you can listen as you read along! Check it out at TheDiabetesPodcast.net. Additionally, we now have video to go along with the audio podcast. Check it out on YouTube and Spotify.
The Diabetes Podcast® kicks off year two with video and a big question: do weight loss supplements actually work for type 2 diabetes? We break down real biology in simple terms—liver sugar at dawn, muscle as a sugar sponge, visceral fat and inflammation, and why your gut needs fiber, not “detox.”
