Nina is known far and wide for her wholesome and delicious recipes that she routinely shares with her fan base, but today I want to chat to Nina about Type 1 diabetes, a condition that she thrives with. See she not only has a serious passion for developing great nourishing recipes, but she is also deeply passionate about helping educate people about how to live and thrive with type 1 diabetes.
