If you want to understand where The Glucose Never Lies® is heading — the vision, the impact, and why community support truly matters — please read on.
Why this exists
When I first started The Glucose Never Lies®, I didn’t set out to build a company. I set out to help educate those who would look after my son.
But, feedback like this spurred me on:
“Amazing information database, it has helped my family to get some relief that there is some information that is comprehensible and confirms so many theories and answers so many questions I still had in handling the treatment and glucose levels of my daughter of four that was diagnosed late October. If it was possible I would donate for the continued growth in this database. Looking forward to the podcast release!” — Dan, subscriber
What began as a small project has grown into a full ecosystem: a podcast, resource hub, and educational platform that translates the latest science into clear, practical understanding for people living with type 1 diabetes and the professionals who support them.
This work has never been funded by industry or sponsors. It’s been built from the ground up — independently — with passion, persistence, and countless unpaid hours.
That independence is what keeps GNL trustworthy. And it’s what your support helps protect.
Why people choose to support
People donate because they believe in what this stands for:
truth without bias, science made understandable, and education that keeps pace with the world’s leading diabetes conferences — for free, and for everyone.
Your support helps us stay independent and keep creating:
- Podcast episodes that dig deep into real science, not soundbites
- Practical guides and explainers that make complex topics clear
- Resources that healthcare professionals can trust and share
- Ongoing projects that connect research, lived experience, and action
Every contribution helps us move faster, improve quality, and keep the content free of industry influence.
How it helps
Your support funds time, tools, and production — the unseen work that makes all this possible. It helps us:
- Bring in leading voices from diabetes care and research
- Keep content accurate, visually clear, and freely available
- Maintain the pace of education so people with type 1 diabetes stay as informed as those who attend major conferences
And yes, it helps me balance life with type 1 diabetes, ADHD, family, and the mission that drives this — turning evidence into clarity for others.
Why it matters
Funding from the community keeps it independent, real, and growing at a sustainable pace.
If this work brings you value — if it’s helped you think differently, learn something new, or simply feel understood — please consider making a one-off or small monthly contribution.
Would I donate?
The only show I’ve ever personally subscribed to and donated to is Peter Attia’s The Drive. He doesn’t need my money—but I knew my contribution would help him escalate quality and grow his team, which, in turn, improves the value I get from his work.
That’s my north star for The Glucose Never Lies®: to bring that level of clarity, rigor, and usefulness to the type 1 diabetes community. I may never match Peter—he’s a hero—but the closer I get, the more people benefit.
Support in another way?
We are always open to innovative ideas. If you have some, please get in touch.
