Dear Friends,

    As the summer sun begins to shine brighter, we’re back with another vibrant edition of GEMS-your monthly dose of updates, insights, and inspiration from the world of diabetes care and research.

    In this edition, we explore the glycemic impact of protein ingestion in individuals with Type 1 Diabetes, offering a deeper understanding of how dietary protein affects blood glucose levels. We also delve into the groundbreaking GRADE study, which evaluates how different treatments influence β-cell function in Type 2 Diabetes over time.

    In addition, We also examine a startling link between full-fat milk consumption and fatty liver (MAFLD) and the groundbreaking recognition of Type 5 Diabetes, a malnutrition-related form of diabetes that has long been overlooked.

    Our Recipe of the Month— Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Lemon-Dill Yogurt Sauce—is a delicious and nutritious option for those managing diabetes, while the GEMS Drug Update brings you insights from the SOUL Study, showcasing the cardiovascular benefits of oral semaglutide for individuals with Type 2 Diabetes.

    For our Picture of the Month, we take you behind the scenes of the DREAMS Illuminator Series, an inspiring initiative dedicated to supporting children with Type 1 Diabetes and their emotional well-being.

    As always, we hope this issue provides valuable knowledge and inspiration to guide you on your diabetes journey. Happy reading, and may this summer bring you health, happiness, and renewed energy!
