Despite incredible advances in diabetes technology, blood sugar control in people with Type 1 diabetes hasn’t meaningfully improved in over a decade. In this eye-opening episode recorded live at Metabolic Health Summit, Dr. Andrew Koutnik - a scientist, patient, and advocate - dives into the science behind this paradox.

Dr. Koutnik shares groundbreaking data from the largest-ever analysis of carbohydrate intake in people with Type 1 diabetes, explores the limitations of current technology, and presents a rare 10-year case study examining the long-term safety and efficacy of carbohydrate restriction.

From CGMs to closed-loop systems, from meal composition to insulin dosing, this episode challenges conventional assumptions and offers a compelling case for nutrition as a powerful - yet underutilized - tool in diabetes care.
