"This was such an insightful video! 🤓💡 The deep dive into what 'Smart MDI' really means and how Medtronic’s InPen™ app works was super helpful. 📱💉👏 It’s amazing to see technology making diabetes management smarter and more efficient. Thank you for breaking it all down so clearly! 🌟🙌 Looking forward to more informative content like this!"
Well, I wanna get a fecal transplant.
"Such exciting updates in the world of diabetes care! 🩺✨ The beta cell transplant news is groundbreaking, and the new pump partnership sounds like a huge step forward! 💡🔥 Thanks for keeping us informed on these game-changing developments. Can’t wait to hear more! 🙌💙"
Thanks for this update. Lots of good information.
Thanks for keeping us updated.
"Wow, this is such a great insight into the future of T1D tech! 🚀👏 The VIVI Smart device sounds like a game-changer for the diabetes community, and it's exciting to hear about the latest innovations from CES! Thanks for keeping us informed and inspired. 💡🙌 Keep up the amazing work! 💙"
Great show. I stopped caring much about diabetes this year, and my glucose and weight reflect that. But I didn't know about all those technology updates. Very helpful to remain in the loop. Looking forward to a discussion about the biological, and medical advances outside of medication and technology.
Thank you Stacey.
Thank you for asking about the twiist algorithm update. I would love to use the twiist but the fact that it doesn't work on android yet and that they use the old version of the algorithm holds me back. Hopefully we will see updates by this time next year or at least progress in this space.
Ketone monitors are useful when fasting. I used it during Ramadan and the market for that is significant
🌟 "This video is so insightful and inspiring! 🩺💙 Dr. David Ahn does an amazing job breaking down what’s ahead for type 1 diabetes in 2025. The advancements and hope shared here are truly uplifting! 🙌✨ Thank you for keeping us informed and optimistic about the future of healthcare. 💡👏 Looking forward to more updates like this-keep up the incredible work! 🚀💖"
I can't exactly describe what I love about Dr. Ahn (probably because he is so into technology but describes everything in a way that us non-techies can understand), but I really like listening to him. I look forward to your next discussion with him, even if it may be in another year or so.
I will say if ww3 broke out and was told i had to serve. I wouldn't.
I was told about national guard state guard is possible. With type 1 which is a state guard level for any level of national guard/state guard non deployment personnel.
I can understand that maybe there's important interaction between beta cells, alpha cells and delta cells inside an islet that are not yet fully understood. But why are they saying glucagon production is restored, when alpha cells don't get destroyed? Glucagon is released just fine by our bodies, so long as the pancreas is not really harmed (ie. pancreatitis, Type 3c). The excess injected insulin seems to overpower the ability to compensate in those situations.
Very exciting! If everything goes well how long before it will be open to the public?
But he said you need
When will U interview Sernova corp
That Insujet thing was avaialbe under a different name 35 or 40 years ago. It was a complete failure. When she read the marketing material that said “better absorption” I laughed out loud. The insulin would bubble up under the skin and go nowhere. It really is weird how the same “game changers” keep getting recycled for decades. They have been talking about encapsulating and transplanting beta cells for just as long.
All in for Insujet! It’s gonna change diabetes and become and new major player in my opinion! Love the potential of this company for both what it can do and what it can offer as what I feel as a strong up and coming stock!
Diabeetus😂😂😂
Instead of Insulin craziness, you should also think if USA women & mothers could be feeding their children with excessive foods. Or may be white European Immigrants' genes are messed up & doomed getting T1 Diabetes. May be Jesus want white genes to be wipped up with nature force of type 1 diabetes?
My daughter was just asked to be a part of this study, I'm so excited.
🎄✨ Love this guide-so helpful for T1D tech! 💙👏 Thanks for sharing these amazing tips! 😊
What would be the point? Isn’t that what basal is for?
This makes me happy ( I have type one diabetes)😊
100%
It seems I'm unable to access the video directly. If you could describe the content or provide highlights, I’ll gladly craft a cheerful comment for the uploader! 😊
"Such exciting updates from Dexcom! 🌟 Jake Leach explains it all so well-game-changing tech! 🙌💙"
Is there a blood test to see if you have mono genetic diabetes?
"Such a helpful video! 💉🌟 Love how you keep us informed with the latest updates. 🙌💙 Keep it up!"
After haveing low bloodsugers 4 or 5 hours after my pre bed snack nearly every night for a month strate, i think smart guard is trying to kill me.
I just got it and it is totally awesome! I'm hooked. Much more accurate than Dexcom & Libre especially when my levels are low an no more day 1's the entire year - Yahoo!!!
I love the dedication and day to day real life experiences
“Such great insights on the latest updates! 🙌 Thanks for keeping us informed! 💙”
“Such an inspiring story! 🙌 Gary Forbes is a true hero on and off the court. 💯🏀”
I dont think the stelo will tell you how low your glucose is. It stops at 70. It is made for people thay do not go low I think.
Useless video! Just a graphic! Asinine!!!
It’s an audio podcast. The picture doesn’t change but the audio does. Some find the info helpful.
Great show
The biggest problem with Stelo is that there is nobody supporting the product Dexcom has rolled out this product but they don't have any infrastructure in place to support it if there are any issues or questions. All they provide is a Bot on the Stelo website that creates a case but never gets back to you. You can't contact anybody. Dexcom customer service refuses to assist any Stelo requests. Very poor launch. All Stelo youtube videos have comments turned off and contact information on Facebook is Dexcom and they refuse to help Stelo questions and Issues.
This is super exciting. As soon as Tandem allows this I am in!!!!
The Stelo app is incompatible with Android 15 causing problems with sensor pairing. My last sensor expires in 2 days. I have placed my sensor reorder on hold with no idea when the app will be fixed. Stelo customer service is non-existent.
I’m a type 1 and always understood flying was out of my reach, this is so inspirational!! Considering my pursuit of a helicopter license now!!!
I am a type 1 I been type 1 since I was 16 years old and now I am 43 years old now
Hi
Are there any diabetes psychiatrists in Pennsylvania?
I take care of a type 1d special needs guywho wears a Dexcom & omnipod 5. What suggestions do you have because the Omni gets changed every 3 days, cgm every 10 days. We wear them both on the same arm. Because they come due to change on different days we will run short on dexcom if we change it a day early to keep up with the pod placement. Does this make sense??? What do other people do? He is so thin & can only wear it on upper arms.
Thank you for this interview with Dr. Alonzo. His perspective is refreshingly flexible and understanding with regard to the mental health challenges of living with T1D. I especially appreciated the section from 11:45 - 17:25. “Big picture goal,” “Don’t have to win the A1c sweepstakes,” “We can soften our attention to diabetes in a safe way so you can live the happy life that we are actually shooting for.” After 46 years with T1D, I can attest to how rare this attitude used to be. I am glad I've lived long enough to see the change in approach.
Ummmmmmmm We DADS night out (golf,bowling, etc) thanks for your work listen on my ride home
DO NOT RECOMMEND. First sensor wildly inaccurate, second sensor died after one day and multiple sensor issues, and no customer service contact number so if you can't get help or have trouble logging on, you're out of luck. Just canceled my subscription.
2 weeks into Stelo. Very educational. I will probably keep using it to keep my glucose in range so I can get to normal from prediabetes. Watching my daughter deal with type 1 means I am very motivated.
