2. Low Carb & Fasting with Type 1 Diabetes
I’ve lived with Type 1 Diabetes for 47 years and remain in excellent health thanks to a low-carb and fasting-based lifestyle.
If you live with Type 1 Diabetes and follow (or wish to learn) keto or intermittent fasting, join us for guidance and community support.
My professional background is in linguistics, literature, education, and translation. I am the founder and director of a translation company and have over 30 years of experience in education, including teaching positions in some of Britain’s top private schools.
Beyond my professional life, I’m an avid gardener who grows my own food in the summer and a recipe creator passionate about nutrient-dense meals that promote optimal metabolic health.
