About Badlow

Built by a Type 3 for anyone navigating blood sugar.

Hi, I'm Tom. A few years ago, my wife Bea—who has Type 1 Diabetes—had a severe low blood sugar emergency. It was one of the scariest moments of our lives.

Since then, I've stepped into the role of a "Type 3"—someone who supports a loved one with diabetes. In trying to help Bea manage her blood sugar, I quickly realized how hard it is to answer a simple question: What will this food do to my blood sugar?

That frustration led to Badlow—a tool built to make nutrition data more accessible, visual, and useful. It's designed for people with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, as well as anyone who wants to better understand how food affects their body.

Whether you're managing diabetes or just trying to make more informed food choices, Badlow is here to help you see the impact before you feel it. We hope it gives you more clarity, confidence, and peace of mind—one meal at a time.
