The Bravest Girl in School- A story about Diabetes and taking insulin for young kids
Product Description
This book has been designed to help children with diabetes appreciate the importance of taking their insulin injections and being aware of what they eat. Although parents are of course primarily responsible for the care of their child s diabetes, it is important that the children themselves are aware that they too must take some responsibility. This book encourages children to follow the instructions given to them by their doctors and parents, to eat healthily, and to see their insulin injections as something brave that they do, that other children cannot! Instead of viewing diabetes and their daily injections as something negative, the story encourages them to think of it as something that sets them apart from their peers in a positive way.

Think Like a Pancreas: A Practical Guide to Managing Diabetes with Insulin
Product Description
Dozens of books offer advice on managing diabetes, but few focus specifically on the day-to-day issues facing those who use insulin. Now Gary Scheiner, a certified diabetes educator and himself an insulin user himself since 1985, gives you the tools to “think like a pancreas”–that is, to successfully master the art and science of matching insulin to the body’s ever-changing needs. Free of medical mumbo jumbo, comprehensive, and packed with useful information not readily available in other books, Think Like a Pancreas discusses:

• day-to-day blood glucose control and monitoring
• designing an insulin program to best match your lifestyle
• measuring insulin to carbohydrate intake and physical activity
• the pluses and minuses of different insulin-delivery methods
• optimal management of diabetes using an insulin pump
• hypoglycemia—the best ways to avoid it and treat it
• the impact of emotions, stress, illness, and aging
• making the best use of your health care team and community resources
• plus dozens of other issues that everyone taking insulin needs to understand and master.

Is having diabetes and insulin dependent considered a disability legally?

live healthy — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 03:22:49 +0000

I have a friend who was told her can’t get his driving permit or license untill he goes 2 or 2 whole years w/o a seizure from his diabetes. He is almost 18 now. He is insulin dependant. He has to take it after EVERYTHING he eats. I understand people will say “diabetes is a disease not a disability” but I beg to differ. A disease such as diabetes can also be a disability in alot of cases! I just need some other opinions on this.

Supplements and type 1 diabetic?

jhunter asked:

I am a type one diabetic. I also love to body build and weight train. I use whey and actually the insulin that i take to my advantage, but i was wondering if anyone else having type 1 has taken any other supplements other than whey? My doctor just says that i should stay away from supplements that might put extra stress on my kidneys. Got any ideas?

Our recommendation would be Soy Proteine. Soybeans are considered by some to be a “complete protein source” in that they provide all the essential amino acids for human nutrition. And it is one of the least expensive sources of dietary protein. For this reason, soy is important to many vegetarians and vegans.
