Reclaim Your Rise: Type 1 Diabetes with Lauren Bongiorno
94. Steal my go-to strategy for quickly lowering my blood sugar
You won’t hear this hot tip from doctors. I tried this hack a couple of years ago in an airplane bathroom, and I couldn’t believe how effective it was at lowering my blood sugar. And when I shared it on Instagram, it took off, much to my surprise! This is why I’m dedicating a short and sweet episode all about it, especially for the holiday season. Let’s learn how to work WITH our bodies to support our blood sugars!
