What if you could learn about type 1 diabetes before symptoms even appear? In this powerful episode, Dr. Steve Edelman and Dr. Jeremy Pettus sit down with Senior Football Insider and Sanofi Spokesperson Adam Schefter to talk about why early screening for T1D is a conversation every family should be having.

Adam shares his personal connection to type 1 diabetes through his wife’s experience and how it changed his outlook on health, preparation, and the role of care partners. Together, they break down the importance of understanding early-stage T1D, how screening works, and why early knowledge is more than just information—it’s peace of mind.

Whether you’re newly diagnosed, a care partner, or simply looking to stay informed, this episode offers insight, support, and a meaningful call to action.
