Risely Health states that all of the classes are taught by the founder, Lauren Bongiorno and developed in collaboration with their Medical Advisory Board. 

These classes range of topics including (directly from Risely Website):

  • What to look for on nutrition labels besides the carbs
  • How to use nutrition labels to create a dynamic insulin strategy that won’t send you skyrocketing high or crashing low in a few hours
  • How to crack the code in your post-meal blood sugar trends 
  • What’s missing from your carb-counting strategy 
    How to factor in the glycemic impact of carbohydrate foods
  • What to do when you can’t count carbs accurately Why fat, protein and fiber are just as important!
  • Understand the reason behind blood sugar patterns that aren’t just related to carbs in your food
  • How to strategize for more challenging foods (like pizza!) while keeping your numbers stable
  • What exactly are all of the different rates, ratios, and factors
  • How to optimize basal rates and long acting insulin 
  • How to notice the signs when your rates and ratios aren’t serving you
  • How LB experienced extremes around food
  • What she did to rebuild her personal food philosophy
  • What you can do to begin moving away from your food challenges and start following your own rules
  • How you might be using food as a coping mechanism 
  • How to recognize your emotional needs through your relationship with food
  • How to begin healing your relationship with food

Once again, Lauren Bongiorno and her health coaching team do not hold any relevant qualifications or certifications to be providing education & supporting people with diabetes on insulin adjustments or nutrition strategies.

These classes should ultimately be taught by licensed professionals, not unqualified individuals taking on their qualifications.
