Maren Morris and fellow Country music singer and songwriter, Brandi Carlile‘s new duet “Common“ inspires our monthly quiz. The song appears on Maren Morris‘ album Girl which will be featured throughout the podcast.

Here’s a sneak peek at Divabetic’s Common Quiz:

What Do All Types of Diabetes Have In Common?

A. your body doesn’t make enough insulin

B. you body can’t use the insulin it does produce

B a combination of both A and B

ANSWER: C). A combination of both A and B. According to WebMD, all types of diabetes have this in common: either your body doesn’t make enough insulin, it can’t use the insulin it does produce, or a combination of both. Insulin is a hormone that helps your body use glucose (blood sugar) for energy.

Speaking of noodles … you’ll find glass noodles on the menu at many popular Asian restaurants. Glass noodles are known by different names including cellophane noodles, mung bean threads, and mung bean noodles. While glass noodles seem lighter than other types of pasta, they have about the same amount of carbs as regular spaghetti and more than whole-wheat spaghetti. It takes about 54 grams of dehydrated noodles to yield a 1-cup serving of prepared glass noodles. This portion contains 47 grams of total carbohydrates, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Because the recommended dietary allowance for carbohydrates is 130 grams daily, you’ll get 36 percent of your daily carbs from one serving of glass noodles.

Glass noodles are gluten free, fat free and a 1/2 cup serving dishes up 8% of your daily requirement for iron.

If you have diabetes, you can still enjoy glass noodles. Just be sure to keep an eye on your portions.

Diabetes Late Nite Podcast Inspired by Maren Morris Coming In April

Country’s brightest star, Maren Morris inspires GIRL TALK about the challenges of living with diabetes on Divabetic’s Diabetes Late Nite podcast scheduled for Tuesday, April 14, 2020, 6 PM, EST.

Do you know that being a woman with type 2 diabetes poses distinctive challenges along the path to tight diabetes management?

“Many of the challenges due to diabetes women face are related to their hormones — namely, estrogen and progesterone”, says Gregory Dodell, MD.

Additionally, when it comes to getting treatment for type 2 diabetes, women may have much more of an uphill battle compared with men. A review of 21 scientific studies from around the world, published in the Indian Journal of Public Health, observed that women deal with many more types of care-related obstacles. These include personal, economic, psychological, and health system–based barriers.

“Among those with diabetes, women were less likely than men to receive the care recommended by guidelines, and women received less-intense therapy and monitoring,” said Neethu Suresh, PhD.

Women also tend to give less of a priority to their own health, and they often lacked family and social support to get medical attention compared to men.

Our Diva Inspiration, Maren Morris has opted to do things her own way, shirking convention and obliterating expectation at every turn.

Her new album, Girl offers a masterclass in country rock (“All My Favorite People,” which features Brothers Osborne), super-sized pop (“Girl”), and pulsating soul (“Make Out With Me”). “The Feels” is anchored by a reggae groove, while “Flavor” and “RSVP” embrace heady ’90s-era R&B.

“Getting married made me want to better myself and figure out why I do the things I do,” Maren Morris says of the decision to look beyond her songbook for relief. “And, for my own mental health, as I go deeper and deeper into this world of music, I need another outlet besides writing songs to get out what I’m feeling.”

Throughout this podcast we will be featuring music from Maren Morris’s Girl album courtesy of SONY Music.
