The Role of Holistic Health in Type 1 Diabetes

Just as a garden requires attention to multiple aspects to flourish, our bodies require attention to multiple aspects for optimal health.

As people with type 1 diabetes, our bodies can use insulin more efficiently when we have more muscle mass, when our mineral & nutrient stores are at optimal levels, and when our hormones are balanced.

When our environment is free of toxins and endocrine disruptors, when our thyroid is functioning optimally, and when we have healthy ways of managing stress, we cultivate a healthy “garden” in which all aspects are tended to, allowing us to thrive and blossom.
