This week’s guest is Gary Scheiner, MS, CDCES and founder of Integrated Diabetes Services (@Integrated_diabetes_services on instagram).
For National Diabetes Awareness Month 2021, we wanted to read what many say is the best book on Diabetes Management, “Think Like a Pancreas” and bring Gary on the show to ask him questions from our trip through the book. Gary also gives Rob great advice to stay retired from basketball in the first minute of the show.
If you want to purchase Think Like A Pancreas, you can get it on Amazon or order a signed copy at IntegratedDiabetesServices.com
On this special episode, Rob, Eritrea and Gary discuss:
When did it become clear that there was a huge gap to fill in broader diabetes knowledge from someone who actually lived with the disease?
What’s changed between the versions of the book
The 3 keys to diabetes management
Hybrid Closed Loop Systems
Long term benefits of bg control
Discussion about Diabetes Complications
How to talk to your doctor/care team
bonus: Gary talks about this song on YouTube called “think like a pancreas”
