With winter upon us, many people notice changes in their diabetes management. Cold weather can have a surprising impact on blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity, which may require adjustments to your routine. For some, the cold makes them crave more carbs or comfort foods, while others notice that they experience more fluctuations in their blood sugar. ❄️
Have you noticed that cold weather affects your type 2 diabetes? Does winter make you crave more carbs, or do you feel your insulin sensitivity changes with the drop in temperature?
