In this episode of the ‘All Things Endurance Podcast,’ host Rick Prince chats with physiologist and diabetes researcher, Dr. Sam Scott – CEO and co-founder of Enhance-d (https://www.enhance-d.com/).

As the CEO of Enhance-d, a platform aimed at making biomarker data easier to interpret and correlate for type 1 diabetics, Dr. Sam Scott is wealth of knowledge not just in respect to type 1 and 2 diabetes, but also how diabetic knowledge can be useful to non-diabetic athletes and coaches.

Below are the areas that Rick and Dr. Scott chat about during this episode:

1. Could you give the listeners a little bit of information about you and your background?

2. For our listeners that are not familiar with type 1 and 2 diabetes, could you give a bit of information about these types of diabetes, key definitions, as well as some basic physiology about diabetes?

3. For diabetics, what are the biggest challenges that they face while exercising that non-diabetics do not?

4. What are some of the biggest misconceptions that non-diabetics have about those with diabetes (type 1 or 2)?

5. What was the genesis for founding Enhance-d?

6. If a coach has an athlete with Type 1 or 2 diabetes, what would your advice be to them with respect to the athlete?

7. What can non-diabetic athletes and coaches learn about nutrition and physiology from diabetic information and research?

8. What are the biggest challenges that diabetic athletes face with respect to the collection and interpretation of physiological biomarker data?
