Low-carb venture in Brazil (#10)

In todays episode I spoke with Fernanda Claudino, a Brazilian
lawyer and T1D, living in Curitiba, close to Sao Paulo,
Brazil. 





We spoke about: 


the health care system in Brazil


her recent venture with the low-carb diet


how she is managing low-carb with her two kids in quarantine


and the benefits she has experienced by following the low-carb
diet e. g. better blood glucose control, reduction of basal rate
by 5 to 6 unites





She has only just started low-carb few months ago and is loving
it. Yet she believes, that being stuck at home due to the
pandemic, it is actually the perfect time to try low-carb. Not
just because, many of us are at home and can prepare our own
meals but also because we can support our immune system to be
less vulnerable for infections such as COVID by having good blood
glucose control.
