This bonus Episode 8B is a family special — co-created with my daughter Grace.

It takes the science of activity lowering glucose and flips it into something fun: a rap we call 99 Problems (But Highs Ain’t One).

The key message?

When you’re above 10 mmol/L (180 mg/dL), just 20 minutes of activity can drop glucose by 2 mmol/L (≈40 mg/dL). That’s the “20 by 2” (or 20 by 40) rule.

But, Grace said 8 years olds don’t want to hear 20 by 2! They want to hear it in a fun way! So, she made up a rap, with the help of Chad!

Here is the Chorus:

If you’re having glucose problems, I feel bad for your son,

I’ve got 99 problems but high glucose ain’t one — hit me.

I know Dr Addala will be proud
