Beth Edwards NutritionNutritional Therapist
Jan. 2020City Of Bristol, England, United KingdomI live with this funky little condition called type 1 diabetes and have done since I was 9. The thing about type 1? It’s always on. If you live with type 1 too, your mind is probably whirling with insulin doses, carb calculations or where your blood sugars are at. It can be both a tough gig and a lonely one. You know your body best, but sometimes a helping hand can make the world of difference. If you’re going around in circles about what you "should" be eating, feel confused about the keto diet vs high fat low carb, or you’re just not feeling on top of your type 1 game. I hear you – and I’m here to help. Get in touch ~ beth@bethedwardsnutrition.com
