Crumbling Pavlova

Forget about Ghostbusters… a new breed of superheroes is here in the form of podcasters and video creators who are striving to dispel some of those more  bizarre myths around diabetes.

I love the work of type1_tom on Instagram, but his direct and often humourous approach may not be for everyone.  For those looking for a fuller discussion, check out the podcasts from Under the Insulin, which often offer perspectives from  diabetics themselves alongside health care professionals.

Whichever approach works for you really doesn’t matter, as we can all benefit from sharing and dispelling a few urban myths around our condition.  Admittedly, such information is often given with the best of intentions, BUT they can lead to real harm, so let’s try to remove them from the narrative 😊
