There's extra Christmass-y foodie

hum-dinger hampers too! P.18.

Swede talking takes place in our
regular carb-counting section as the
seasonal root takes centre-stage,
complete with a recipe that takes
swede mash to new places. P.30.
We know that diabetes is a marathon, not a sprint. And we know that
life can be tough for anyone from time-to-time. Our short feature
on p. 24 looks at research into coping being kind to ourselves,
something to bear in mind in this season of goodwill. There's loads more to dip into
too, with an extended food report on seasonal yummies, and a look in our Making
Carbs Count section at another festive favourite, the swede. In the news pages
there's updates on products such as Libre, Dexcom, Omnipod and big pharma
too, such as Eli Lilly, Medtronic and Roche. Then there's research stories on smart
insulin, insulin in pill form and a stem cell therapy 'cure'. There's an update
on 'tattoo technology' too, as Harvard gets in on the act, and there's a
round-up of some of the fun and frolics that took place on World Diabetes
Day in the middle of November. So there's plenty to read if you want to
escape from the crowds and catch up on what's going on in the diabetes
world, which seems to be a lot! And it's time for me to say Merry
Christmas, I hope you have a cool Yule!
