Love this couple, and the husband was so loving and caring to his wife and child. Hope they will be successful on their business and will have a great and healthy life together.

[@akdlg9sjjslk8]

I have to say this has become my favorite little series on this channel. I love this family. Everyone is so wholesome and loving, the way they live their day-to-day lives caring for each other. They have a life with struggles but they keep their heads held high and stay hopeful. Thank you for showing us a glimpse of their life. To live happily and healthily, I hope they have this for a very long time, and I wish them the very best. 💗

[@momofchampions7293]

Wow i can so relate to this woman...both me and my 4 year old son were diagnosed with celiac disease and being from a community that doesn't have knowledge of this illness it was very hard..thankfully i live in Australia where there are organisations and health professionals is available..both me and my son are on gluten free diet for a year now and we dn't visit restaurants or families anymore as it got hard hearing them making ignorant remarks or jokes as to why we not eating pasta and bread😩...it takes emotional and mental toll on you...Best of luck to her

[@quirkykidsph]

If you think about it she's in one of the best places to have celiac. Bread and wheat based dishes are not the staple in Asian countries. As for the DM 1, it can be hard to manage but it's not impossible. All the best for this family.

[@nifferwilko]

It's the hidden gluten that's the risk in Asia. For SK, both Soy sauce and Gochujang are possibly contaminated with gluten so even something like kimchi is a minefield. I agree that it looks like it would be easier but she must have to cook mostly everything from scratch. I'm glad her husband is so supportive. They're a cute family

[@nnn-v6w]

@@nifferwilko I thought gluten is only in wheat? How does kimchi or soy sauce have that

[@nifferwilko]

@@nnn-v6w It's either used as an ingredient in making it, or it's produced in a factory that also processes gluten containing ingredients. Wheat is a cheap filler so a lot of manufacturers use it to bulk up their products. Before I was diagnosed I thought the same but it's scary how prolific it is in dishes you wouldn't expect. There are obviously Soy sauce and Gochujang that are safe to eat, but you'd have to know that the dish was made for that brand. This lady's MIL will make hers with the right brand, but it's harder in restaurants. I wouldn't expect someone who isn't gluten free to be aware of the hidden gluten at all. Even my parents struggle with what is safe and GF. Basically if you make everything from scratch, you know what's in it but eating out is difficult which is a big part of the social culture in South Korea. I hope that helped!

[@TheSanraphael]

@@nnn-v6w they use glutenous rice flour for the marinade! You mix all the ingredients like gochujang, garlic, anchovy sauce and whatnot together with the cooked rice flour roux and mush it in between the nappa cabbage leaves! If she makes kimchi from scratch she has to leave out that flour and just use gochugaru, maybe doing like a fresh summer cucumber or chive kimchi instead :)

[@SeoWoojin55]

@@nifferwilko contaminated with gluten is not the right word. containing gluten is. contaminated sounds derogatory especially when food items like that are part of the culture too.

I'm very surprised to know type 1 Db is rare in Korea! I know 4 ppl just in my little city in Canada already and this doc only has one patient wow.

[@joydot.dot.dot.8040]

I think it’s because of healthier diets so it’s less likely to become generational as well.

[@ashanticannon]

@@joydot.dot.dot.8040 Type 2 diabetes is what you’re thinking of, where an unhealthy lifestyle leads to it. Type 1 is caused due to immune system inefficiencies, triggered by viruses or something in the environment.

[@joydot.dot.dot.8040]

@@ashanticannon Oh then I really don’t know. Does that means type 2 diabetes is rare in Korea too or just type 1?

[@ashanticannon]

@@joydot.dot.dot.8040 possibly both, I don’t really know but considering type 1 is rare type 2 must be uncommon as well

[@rabeataleb95]

@@ashanticannon I did some research and compared it with the numbers of my country Canada. Years are different in the studies, but South Korea seems to have half the number of cases in Db2 of Canada. As for Db1, the rare one, the latest number in Canada is 1%, but in South Korea it is between 0.017% and 0.021% of the population 😱 It must be something about the genes I guess

[@vombine9321]

gosh I wish they could inform themselves better, because you don't necessarily have to adjust your diet with type 1 diabetes :") Ofc eating more greens and such does help with your general health but there's no need at all to cut out sugar completely for example.

[@evelynemartin989]

Interesting that it is so rare. In Europe I know quite a few who have diabetes type 1. I would say it’s common but not uncommon either. Everyone I know knows someone who has it or has been in contact with someone. Is it food? Culture? Stress?

[@Rose24Animantion]

Probably genetics

[@lincer4784]

its food and culture , usually Western Countries have higher obesity rates since they eat fast/junk food a lot which can build up a lot of disease, but in Asian countries mostly in Korea,Japan and China, we have a diet that's implemented in our culture mainly vegetables, a lot of proteins and rice which can affect the health positively depending on the person. Thats why our heights, diet,weight defers bcz our food is completely different than the West. So diseases like cancer and diabetes are very uncommon.

[@trrt2719]

@@lincer4784 there is a difference between diabetes type 1 and 2. Type 2 is because of lifestyle but you are born with type 1. Type 1 is purely genetics and unavoidable

[@mika9883]

Type 1 is genetics, something she would have as a child. Type 2 is due to poor diet and lack of exercise. I was pre diabetic and I had to change my eating habits and exercise more to get better. However it sounds like she has type 2 but they’re giving her insulin like she’s type 1.

This footage feels so old due to the way they treat her diabetes even though is not. Why doesn’t she get a cgm and a pump? It would make things so much easier for her. Does the insurance not pay for insulin pumps in Korea ?? I feel so bad for her, she has so much unnecessary stress due to not having the proper equipment ☹️☹️

[@tj_and_lex]

It’s because it’s so uncommon a disease here so equipment is not widely available and very expensive. Even until very recently, buying CGMs from abroad was illegal so it’s not so simple 😅
