Nutrition and sport with diabetes: In the shoes of an athlete (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788892922235)

Eleonora Campagnoli is a successful biotechnologist and triathlete who has been facing the challenge of type 1 diabetes since the age of three. Raised in Italy, Eleonora had to learn early on how to manage a chronic condition that requires constant attention and determination. Her early diagnosis marked the beginning of a complex yet extraordinary journey characterized by unparalleled resilience. The daily challenges of managing diabetes have never stopped her. On the contrary, they have provided her with the motivation to lead a full and active life. In this book, Eleonora shares the dietary strategies she uses to balance her intense sports activities with managing glycemic peaks, offering personal anecdotes and practical advice on how to live well with diabetes, from diet to workout routines. The author will donate a portion of the royalties derived from the sale of this book to FID (Fondazione Italiana Diabete).
