We’re all supposed to know about ketones, but how much education did you actually get?   I’m talking to Dr. Jennifer Sherr, a pediatric endocrinologist who lives with type 1 about the basics of ketones and a lot more. She shares best practices to stay safe, what most people with diabetes really do and what she’s hopeful for in terms of making ketone monitoring easier. We’ve been managing T1D for 18 plus years and I was surprised, there was still a lot here I didn’t know.   This podcast is not intended as medical advice.
