About this listen

Okay, so...Ginger is exhausted — thank goodness Sami could jump in and explain this cool science a little more clearly. Listen to this: there's an awesome drug in clinical trials right now from Zucara Therapeutics.

Zucara's injectable drug aims to prevent and correct low blood sugars in people with type 1 diabetes! It's NOT the same as glucagon -- it's something that hangs out in your body waiting to kick in when your blood sugar is dropping.

They've already completed Phase 1 — and they're recruiting right now for Phase 2. They're looking for participants in a dozen cities across the USA and Canada.

About Type 1 Tea

We're spilling the tea on T1D! Every episode is an unscripted (and hardy edited) conversation about life with type 1 diabetes — hosted by Ginger Vieira and Sami Parker. We'll hit topics like managing insulin during exercise, other medications, A1c tips, nutrition tricks, weight loss, and more.


Unscripted and barely edited: Type 1 Tea is a real discussion about real life with type 1 diabetes.
