Dr. Afshan Zahedi - Diabetes and Endocrine
Anyone who’s heard of insulin knows that it plays a huge role in diabetes. But did you know that other hormones can affect diabetes as well?
In this video, Dr. Afshan Zahedi of the Scarborough Health Network explains which hormones can affect diabetes patients and how they do so.
Insulin is the big name in hormones and diabetes, but it’s certainly not the only one.
The Scarborough Health Network has sponsored the creation of over a hundred educational videos for type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.

In 2022, this YouTube channel was rebranded as Manitoba Moonshot.
The Manitoba Moonshot is a front-row seat watching one Canadian family trying to end type 2 diabetes.
This channel will highlight stories from the Lautt family, ask tough questions about access to health care for marginalized communities, and feature exclusive interviews with Canadians from all walks of life — especially those living with type 2 diabetes.
