    Never been hospitalised?

    Every time I go to see the diabetes doctors, they ask me their questions. One of which as I'm sure you are all aware is if I have ever been hospitalised due to diabetes. I say no, never. The reaction they give me is always of really big shock. Like, I almost get the feeling they don't...

    Keto + T1D Issues

    Not to turn this into a product plug but the guy who runs it is really, really helpful and knows his stuff. I have messaged a few times about different things. Use the contact form there and I'm sure he can answer all of your questions.

    Keto + T1D Issues

    I have been a T1 for 15 years, and I was low carb for maybe 1 month before switching to full keto. Thank you for tags and the welcome.

    Keto + T1D Issues

    Hello! I am a type one diabetic. I have been following keto for almost 3 or 4 months now. At the beginning, I was just doing 'low carb' to reduce my insulin intake but being a bit of a perfectionist I soon found myself going for the deep end on what could be achieved. I have reduced my basal...
