Diabetes can feel overwhelming until the pieces click. In this episode, Registered Dietitian Jennifer Wright joins us to break down what diabetes is, how blood sugar and insulin work, and what those numbers like A1C and fasting glucose really mean.

We cover early warning signs, simple lifestyle changes that make a big impact, and how stress, sleep, and even caffeine can affect your blood sugar. Jennifer also shares practical tips for building sustainable habits—like tapering soda, walking after meals, and making balanced food choices that last.

Plus, learn how MedLink Georgia’s Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support program can help you take control with personalized guidance.

No crash diets. No gimmicks. Just real tools to help you live healthier every day.
