If you’ve ever googled a specific insulin pump or CGM, you may well have come across Nerdabetic’s content online. His insightful but fun YouTube videos break down the latest and greatest in diabetes technology, helping people with diabetes to understand how they could benefit.

In this episode I’m chatting to Kamil Armacky - the real Nerdabetic. We discuss his personal journey into technology after he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2012, how he went from his first Facebook post to meeting royalty in the name of type 1 diabetes, and how his content - and the impact his content having - has evolved since he started posting eight years ago.

Offering personal stories as well as practical tips for the tech-curious, Kamil reveals his top tips for figuring out what insulin pump might work for you, what the diabetes CEOs really think, why the time in happiness is just as important as time in range - and how he ended up serving undercooked chicken on Junior Masterchef...
