Thank you for this post....I am going to send this article to my school nurse friends. We are having concerns about diabetic education for kids. They have insulin pumps and it seems that they have free rein to eat anything and adjust the pump accordingly....we still see the same highs and lows...it can't be healthy....I have always felt the strict diabetic diet like these guys are following is the healthy way to be for all of us....
You are right, eating junk and adjusting the insulin level can be deadly in the long run.
It's all about good nutrition. And that discipline ought to begin at home.
The school can go a long way tho, to helping the kids see the value in taking good care of themselves.
