About Us
We offer professional and personal health advice.
We understand that life with diabetes affects far more than just blood sugar.
Diabetessupport.se was founded by Maria Stålgren – a licensed nurse with over 50 years of personal experience living with type 1 diabetes.
Here, you’ll find support to navigate everyday life and get support and motivation to face challenges — with diabetes as a lifelong “companion”.
Our focus is on the whole person living with diabetes, with a holistic perspective of health: physical, emotional, and social well-being. We stand on scientific evidence and proven experience in combination with personal experiences.
