What diabetes technology is actually helping people right now—and how do you figure out what fits best into your life?
In this 100th episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. E and Dr. P are joined by diabetes nurse practitioner and educator Rachael Sood, founder of The Diabetes Collective, to talk through the latest updates in diabetes technology and what they’re seeing in real-world diabetes care.
The conversation focuses on how much diabetes technology has changed over the past few years, from hybrid closed loop systems and CGMs to new developments in sensing and automation. Rather than focusing on one “best” device, the discussion centers around finding the right fit for each person’s lifestyle, preferences, and goals.
Dr. E, Dr. P, and Rachael also talk about where technology may be headed next, including dual glucose and ketone sensors, more compatibility between pumps and CGMs, and the possibility of systems that require less hands-on work from people living with diabetes. The takeaway is encouraging: there are more tools and options than ever before, and diabetes technology continues to move toward making daily management simpler, safer, and more flexible.
