Diabetes is a challenging disease to live with, especially when you're unsure what to eat and not eat. Nutrition continues to be at the forefront of the content I'm pushing on this podcast. I've said it before, and you'll keep on hearing me say it, "if you don't know what you're eating and how those foods affect your blood sugar, you're missing a vital piece of the puzzle."

In today's episode, we got to sit down with Registered Dietitian Kelly Schmidt. Graham and I were blown away with her ideas and philosophies on how to control diabetes with FOOD!

We got to learn about what good nutrition is? What is the symbiotic relationship between the foods we eat and the gut? What type of eating habits are best for a diabetic? What insulin therapy is best? What is the difference between type 1, type 2, pre-diabetes, and diabetes 1.5 (Lada)? And much more.

ENJOY!
