In this powerful episode, Dr. Steve Edelman and Dr. Jeremy Pettus sit down with Senior Football Insider and Sanofi Spokesperson Adam Schefter to talk about why early screening for T1D is a conversation every family should be having.
Adam shares his personal connection to type 1 diabetes through his wife’s experience and how it changed his outlook on health, preparation, and the role of care partners. Together, they break down the importance of understanding early-stage T1D, how screening works, and why early knowledge is more than just information—it’s peace of mind.
