Insulin is the most important hormone in diabetes — and the most misunderstood.

In this episode:

• How the "key and lock" system between insulin and your cells works

• What happens when insulin is missing (Type 1)

• What happens when the locks stop responding (Type 2)

• Why insulin sits at the centre of almost everything in diabetes

Once you understand insulin, diabetes makes so much more sense.
