The insuleoin Podcast - Redefining Diabetes

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Amanda Ciprich (@t1d.nutritionist).

Amanda is from New Jersey in the US, and was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes just shortly after she turned 18 years old. She is a Registered Dietician who works with clients and patients specifically in relation to improving their management of Diabetes, so that they can live a healthy and happy life.

Amanda went through her own struggles when she was initially diagnosed, which played a role in her pursuing a career in health and nutrition. She saw first hand the impact that a “balanced” and “educational” approach to Diabetes management can have on patients, and knew that she had a passion to help change the lives of people living with Diabetes (without being overly obsessive or restrictive).

Topics and ideas Amanda speaks about in this episode:

• Her own “adjusting” period when first diagnosed.
• Why eating more carbohydrates is beneficial to your management.
• How to relieve the “stressful” side of CGMs.
• The biggest challenges you face when improving your management, + how to overcome them.
• And much more!

In today’s episode Eoin talks about a recent run he went on, and how he used the “time of day” to help manage his blood sugar throughout the exercise.

When we exercise, it’s important to consider; active insulin in our system, food we’ve eaten, duration of exercise etc, when we want to stay stable during the session.

Eoin uses the example in this episode of how we can “skip” those considerations during certain times of day, and still stay in range during exercise.
