DIY Loop is one of the most powerful and customizable automated insulin delivery systems for type 1 diabetes, offering features like overrides, retroactive carb adjustments, and glycemic index logging. In this episode, fellow Loop user Jake Giles joins me to share our experiences getting started, the support (or lack thereof) from doctors, and a deep dive into key features like carb logging by glycemic index, creating custom overrides, and pre-meal targets. Since Loop isn’t FDA-approved or available on the App Store, we also discuss the challenges of building and maintaining it. Plus, we answer your Instagram questions in a Q&A segment! Have questions?
