GettyTurturro continued to share how she started to take insulin and met with a specialist and nutritionist. She also started walking. “I started working with a nutritionist to better educate myself about carbohydrate intake. There is so much to learn—I’m still learning,” she said.
GettyLater in the interview, she discussed health in more detail, saying, “Nutrition is everything — we could talk about food for hours. Eating healthily is different for a diabetic than for someone without diabetes— for instance, someone who’s just trying to losing weight. If you’re diabetic, you really have to understand what your body does with the foods you eat.”
