"Kickass Healthy LADA" - An eye-opening look at a misunderstood diabetes diagnosis

LADA is a form of diabetes that is often mistaken for type 2 but needs to be treated much more like type 1. As you can imagine, getting the diagnosis wrong is dangerous. This week's guest, Jacqueline Haskins, says she got lucky. A friend said her symptoms sounded more like Latent Auto Immune Diabetes in Adults than like Type 2.

Jacqueline is the author of Kick Ass Healthy LADA where she shares research, advice and her own story. She’s an aquatic biologist and an award winning author.
