What comes to mind when hearing the word diabetes?
For many, it sounds like one single condition—something that happens when blood sugar gets too high. But type 2 diabetes is much more complex than that, and it’s far more common than most people realize. About one in seven adults in the U.S. has diabetes, while roughly one in three lives with prediabetes. Even if it doesn’t affect someone directly, chances are it impacts a family member or close friend.
This topic hits close to home for many, including myself, after a relative reached out being newly diagnosed. That conversation reminded me how overwhelming those first moments can feel—when questions start piling up about what diabetes really means and how to move forward.
In this week’s episode, I’ll talk about type 2 diabetes—what it really is, how it’s treated, and how lifestyle plays a major role in managing it. We’ll also look deeper into how it affects the body beyond blood sugar and why bariatric surgery has become such a powerful option for some patients. It’s a condition that deserves more attention—not only because it’s so widespread, but because with the right approach, it’s manageable and, in some cases, even reversible.
If this is something that affects you or someone close to you, I encourage you to listen to the full episode. We’ll walk through everything step by step—from understanding the science to finding the tools that make everyday life a little easier.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
