The reality of living with Type-1 diabetes & waiting for an organ transplant - with Rechelle Coombes

Rechelle Coombes was diagnosed with Type-1 diabetes when she was 12. In her teens and early 20’s, Rechelle developed diabulimia (an eating disorder where diabetics restrict themselves of insulin) which landed her in hospital many times. As Rechelle got her diagnosis under control, Rechelle learned her kidneys were failing, which now means she is on the waiting list for a simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplant.

In this episode we speak with Rechelle about the differences between Type-1 and Type-2 diabetes, the misconceptions and stigma surrounding both, everything that led up to the point of Rechelle needing an organ transplant, and how she is using her experience to give back.

We want to thank Rechelle for being so open <3

Don’t let your menstrual cycle dictate your training with Dr Hazel Wallace

Hazel Wallace is a medical doctor, nutritionist, women’s health advocate and founder of ‘Align’ a 10-week online program demystifying the menstrual cycle. We asked you for your menstrual cycle questions and in this conversation Steph puts them to Hazel: how much pain is normal? Why does my period change after having a baby? Is it normal that my period is brown? Hazel also challenges commonly held beliefs that we need to train differently while we’re on our period and that staying on the Pill for a long of time causes infertility. Check out ‘Align’ here: https://www.thefoodmedic.co.uk/i-am-ready-to-align Steph & Laura were on Hazel’s podcast The Food Medic.
