Hi Sandy.
My name is Linda, and I too am a long time type-1 diabetic. Your
husband’s low’s sound really scary! He is very lucky to have you to
help him. I went to the site you gave us a link for - There is a
place there that allows you to listen to shows they already
broadcast. ‘Archives’ section. If you know the date you heard the
shows you were asking about, the ones with Dr. Snow, you can hear
them again by going first to the list of shows in the archives, and
then clicking on the date and topic you want to hear…

night period, I stopped having night lows as often or as severely. -
I’ve heard NPH insulin has toxic ingredients, but I am less certain
about Lantus. I guess I figure insulin shock is about as teriminally
toxic as a person can get, so if the Lantus reduces my chance of
that, then I’m willing to use it. I try to keep the rest of my
diet/product-use as clean of toxicity as I can… Hard to avoid
everything bad in this strange time of corporate man-made everything!

use it? I was like that for a long time. But now, I feel so much
