  • A GREAT BLUE MONTH – WORLD DIABETIC DAY (WDD) 2014

    Thanks to you, all around the world, helping increase the awareness of diabetes during the world diabetic day (WDD). I was in Stockholm to celebrate the day together with other diabetics. I also follow the world in Social media during the day and night and found a lot of great pictures from lots of places.
    Swedish diabetic bloggers Diabetesia and Diabetesmannen together with me AnnaPS
    Now I am going to share with you, my WDD in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden.
    I visited Stockholm the day before and during the WDD. And that was great. The 13th of November it was an open diabetes event and I brought all AnnaPS garments to make it possible for visitors to try them on. It was popular and people really likes our tops and panties. I also demonstrate how to also carry hand units for both Omnipod and Frestyle Libre. Freestyle Libre (a FGM) is very hot in Sweden now, lots want it! You don´t have to stick your fingers!
    All wants this! The new glucose meter Freestyle Libre- you don´t have to stick your fingers! Just scanning your bs.

    It came almost 300 visitors and it use to be approx. 100. I am still dreaming on an extra big event in Stockholm during WDD so this was in the right way.
    In Stockholm the Globe was shining blue all the day 14th of November, I like that.
     

    The globe in Stockholm was shining Blue the WDD!

     In the evening lots of people came to the central of Stockholm (Sergels torg) and made a blue human ring. It was lot of people but I would love to see more and more. Lot of kids where there with their parents and to make them happy I worn a big Disney hat with blue lights. The kids like it.
    In central of Stockholm we build a human blue ring.

     At this place also a ”Blue Party” started and I meet up the great Swedish diabetic bloggers Diabetesmannen and Diabetesia who have planned the night. It was great to meat them in hot blue clothes. It was an open invitation to join and as always it is great to be among diabetics. Be there next time!
    Diamyd is testing a vaccine that can stop diabetes!
    On place we were invented to join a party in the company Diamyd locations and there I learned a lot about their incredibly exciting research finding a diabetes vaccine. To hear them telling me they probably have the vaccine that can stop diabetes is like coming to heaven. I will follow their studies and cross my fingers this is the right way.
    During November I put effort to wear blue every day until WDD. It was fun and here you can see some of the blue days. I am already looking forward to next WDD and I am glad to meet you all during our ”second birthday” as I heard a lot of diabetics saying during the WDD.
    Meet you wherever you are!
    To see more pictures from WDD please go to our Facebook

    This was my blue month.

    check. Once there, they meet a happy and alert Minnie who is out playing with his rabbit Turbo, she made a 
    obstacle to. The boys talk about their concerns if Minnie’s disease, and she tells the boys how it 
    is how she measures her blood sugar and how she takes her insulin. The boys are wide-eyed and impressed and think 
    Minnie is brave. Oh, she says, ”when are you going to meet my new friend Walter who has an insulin pump.” How to give 
    the gang off to Walter who is just about to build a hut for himself high up in a tree. He explains how it is that

    what diabetes means. Cozy, cheerful and humorous watercolor drawings by Margaret Sandin enhances both 
    the warmth and joy of the story.


    Susann about Susann:

    I am a determined young woman Susann ”Sussu” Gleisner, born in 1987. I am an entrepreneur and running your own small business. I have many dreams and goals in life that I want to realize. I always have a thousand ideas in my head and I would particularly like to help others through my experiences and knowledge I have received in my life. I like to have many balls in the air. 
    I am a mother, partner, entrepreneur, lecturer, author, writer, distributor, trainer in equestrian and racing riders. I live with two diseases around the clock that I have had since childhood, diabetes type 1 and celiac disease. It is within the two areas I work most and has many ideas I want to implement to improve the quality of life of others with illnesses. 

    I’m living with Frederick as captain. We had the honor of January 2014 be happy and proud parents of a wonderful and much loved little girl, Vanessa. I love mom life and getting to spend the bulk of my time with her. 
    We live in Socklot, a small village in Ostrobothnia, Finland. 
    Right now, for the moment, we are building from scratch our very own dream farm. 

    I am a person who has never seen my illness as an obstacle in my life, quite the opposite. Please follow me on my website which will be launched in October: 
    www.susanngleisner.com 

    Why I wrote the book? 
    I got an idea – an idea that became real. 
    A children’s book about diabetes. 
    I saw the need, I wrote a script and the 11/11/2013 came out, my book: 
    ”How so sick?” 
    The first edition sold out quickly, now is the second edition out there. 

    Info text of the book. 
    When you are ill should probably be in bed, right? 
    Martin’s friend Minnie has diabetes, but she does not look sick at all, quite the contrary. Just to manage their disease, says Minnie, can live as normal as any other child. 
    Susann Gleisner got yourself type 1 diabetes when she was a child. With the story of Minnie, she wants to show that life is by no means run out after a diabetes diagnosis. 

    Published by publisher Scriptum: https://www.scriptum.fi/sv/books/children/hur_da_sjuk

    The idea behind the book: 
    ⁃ When you fall ill as a child and is in the hospital, then you get loads of hospital information. Then I want to be able to read my book and see that it’s not just dark and tough. One can live a normal life despite their illness. Both the child and the parents need to see it back then, so maybe, just maybe it will go a little easier. 
    ⁃ Kindergartens, schools should be able to read the book. Many children today have diabetes and do not have a child in the group, I want the children to have some knowledge of what diabetes is. 
    ⁃ Parents, siblings and grandparents can easily by reading the book have told of their illness. 
    ⁃ A diabetsbarn can tell by the book to their friends what their illness. 
    ⁃ Diabetes child can get a better view of their illness. 
    ⁃ disseminate the disease. 
    ⁃ 
    I also go around and hold story time with my book for children. 
    Tex to libraries, schools, churches and various events. 
    I read to the children from the book, then we will discuss about the book, and diabetes. 
    I also have my own diabetes material I show the children. 
    These storytelling has been a great success.

    This is the book



    Swedish:
    Recension av boken:

    Berättelse. Martin är bekymrad och har svårt för att leka då han hela tiden tänker på sin kompis Mimmi som blivit
    sjuk. Mamma säger att hon fått diabetes och frågorna är många för Martin. Ligger hon på sjukhus? Har hon ont?
    Kommer hon att kunna leka igen? Då dyker kompisen Robert upp och de beslutar att åka hem till Mimmi och
    kolla. Väl där möter de en glad och pigg Mimmi som är ute och leker med sin kanin Turbo, som hon gjort en
    hinderbana till. Pojkarna berättar om sina undringar om Mimmis sjukdom och hon berättar för pojkarna hur det
    är, hur hon mäter sitt blodsocker och hur hon tar sitt insulin. Pojkarna är storögda och imponerade och tycker att
    Mimmi är modig. Äsch, tycker hon, ”då ska ni träffa min nya kompis Walter som har en insulinpump”. Så ger sig
    gänget i väg till Walter som just håller på att bygga en koja åt sig högt uppe i ett träd. Han berättar hur det är att
    leva med en insulinpump och hur han hanterar det. Allt det här berättas på ett lekfullt och inspirerande sätt, fullt
    av upptåg och med glimten i ögat och mycket klokare blir man över hur det är för ett barn att leva med diabetes. I
    slutet av boken kommer en allmän information om diabetes som slår hål på en hel del myter om sjukdomen.
    Susann Gleisners Hur då sjuk? är en perfekt bok för dagis och skolor att läsa och samtala kring och lära sig om
    vad diabetes innebär. Mysiga, glada och humoristiska akvarellteckningar av Margareta Sandin förhöjer både
    värmen och glädjen i berättelsen.


    Susann presenterar sig:

    Jag är en målmedveten ung kvinna Susann ”Sussu” Gleisner, född 1987. Jag är en entreprenör och driver ett eget litet företag. Jag har har många drömmar och mål i livet som jag vill förverkliga. Jag har alltid tusen ideér i mitt huvud och jag vill framför allt hjälpa andra genom mina erfarenheter och kunskaper jag har fått i mitt liv. Jag gillar att ha många bollar i luften. 
    Jag är mamma, sambo, företagare, föreläsare, författare, skribent, återförsäljare, tränare inom ridsport och tävlingsryttare. Jag lever med två sjukdomar dygnet runt som jag har haft sedan barnsben, DIABETES typ1 och CELIAKI. Det är inom de två områden jag jobbar mest och har många ideér jag vill förverkliga för att förbättra andras livskvalitét med sjukdomarna. 

    Jag är sambo med Fredrik som är sjökapten. Vi fick äran att i januari 2014 bli lyckliga och stolta föräldrar till en helt underbar och högt älskad liten tjej, Vanessa. Jag älskar mammalivet och att få spendera den största delen av min tid med henne. 
    Vi bor i Socklot, en liten by i Österbotten, Finland. 
    Just nu för tillfället håller vi på att bygga upp från noll vår alldeles egna drömgård. 

    Jag är en person som aldrig har sett mina sjukdomar som ett hinder i mitt liv, tvärtom. Följ mig gärna på min hemsida som lanseras i oktober:
    www.susanngleisner.com

    Varför jag skrev boken?
    Jag fick en idé – en idé som blev verklig. 
    En barnbok om diabetes. 
    Jag såg behovet, jag skrev ett manus och den 11.11.2013 kom den ut, min bok: 
    ”Hur då sjuk?”
    Den första upplagan sålde slut snabbt, nu finns den andra upplagan ute.

    Infotext om boken. 
    När man är sjuk ska man väl ligga till sängs, eller?
    Martins kompis Mimmi har diabetes, men hon ser inte alls sjuk ut, tvärtom. Bara man sköter sin sjukdom, säger Mimmi, kan man leva som vanligt som alla andra barn.
    Susann Gleisner fick själv diabetes typ 1 när hon var barn. Med berättelsen om Mimmi vill hon visa att livet ingalunda tar slut efter en diabetesdiagnos. 

    Utgiven via förlaget Scriptum: https://www.scriptum.fi/sv/books/children/hur_da_sjuk

    Iden bakom boken: 
    När man insjuknar som barn och ligger på sjukhus, då får man massvis med sjukhusinformation. Då vill jag att man ska kunna läsa min bok och se att det är inte bara mörkt och jobbigt. Man kan leva ett normalt liv trots sin sjukdom. Både barnet och föräldrarna behöver se det redan då, så kanske, kanske det går lite lättare.
    Daghem, skolor ska kunna läsa boken. Många barn idag har diabetes, och har inte ett barn i gruppen så vill jag att barnen ska ha lite kunskap om vad diabetes är. 
    Föräldrar, syskon, mor- och farföräldrar kan på ett enkelt sätt genom att läsa boken få berättat om deras sjukdom. 
    Ett diabetsbarn kan genom boken berätta åt sina vänner vad de har för sjukdom.
    Diabetesbarnet kan få en bättre syn på sin sjukdom.
    Sprida kunskap om sjukdomen. 

    Jag åker även runtom och håller sagostunder med min bok för barn.  
    Tex till bibliotek, skolor, församlingar och olika evenemang.
    Jag läser för barnen ur boken, sen så diskuterar vi kring boken och diabetes. 
    Jag har även med mitt egna diabetesmaterial som jag visar åt barnen. 
    Dessa sagostunder har blivit en stor succé.

  • The blue ring and the World Diabetic Day (WDD)

    (For English please see below)

    Låt oss presentera AnnaPS alldeles egna blåa ring. Vår ring kan innehålla olika budskap och det här är vår ”blåa-ring-gubbe”.

    Med vår ”blåa-ring-gubbe” vill vi uppmärksamma alla diabetiker, som vi ser som hjältar. Dessa hjältar som varje dag mäter, mäter och åter mäter sitt blodsocker. Som varje dag bedömmer och utvärderar sina aktiviteter, känslostämningar och vad de äter för att kunna ta insulindoser för bra blodsockervärden dygnet runt. Som varje dag lägger flera timmar på att behandla sin diabetes.
    Att ha en positiv inställning till livet och sin diabetes vet vi diabetiker är viktigt, vi vill alla det, men ibland behöver vi hjälpas åt för att hitta motivationen. Vi vill att AnnaPS blå ring skall symbolisera styrka till oss alla diabetiker, till ett bra liv och till ett enklare liv med diabetes.

    Jag hoppas ni tycker om den blåa ringen. Jag är själv diabetiker typ 1 sedan år 1998 och jag var nyfiken på historien om den blå ringen, så jag bifogar den här (källa: Svenska Diabetesförbundet Svenska diabetesförbundets hemsida).

    Trevlig helg till er alla!

    Om Världsdiabetesdagen (WDD)

    Den 14 november uppmärksammas Världsdiabetesdagen runt om i världen. Världsdiabetesdagen är en FN-dag som sätter fokus på alla de miljoner människor som lever eller riskerar att insjukna i diabetes.
    Världsdiabetesdagens bakgrund
    Världsdiabetesdagen, eller World Diabetes Day, startades efter ett initiativ av International Diabetes Federation (IDF) och WHO 1991 för att uppmärksamma att diabetes ökar stort i världen. Från och med 2007 är också FN med i arbetet att bekämpa ökningen av sjukdomen.
    Att dagen uppmärksammas den 14 november beror på att Frederick Banting är född 14 november, det var han som tillsammans med Charles Best upptäckte insulinet.
    Den blå ringen
    Årligen uppmärksammar Internationella Diabetesfederationen Världsdiabetesdagen på olika sätt. 2014-2016 är temat för dagen ”Healthy eating and diabetes”.
    Den blå ringen är den officiella logotypen för Världsdiabetesdagen. Bakgrunden till logotypens utseende är att en cirkel i många kulturer betyder liv och hälsa. Den blå färgen reflekterar himlen som sammanför oss alla samt är FN flaggans färg.

     English:
    AnnaPS has developed its own Blue-ring. Our Blue-ring may contain various messages and here’s our ”blue-ring-guy”.
    With the blue-ring-guy we want to pay attention to all diabetics, which we view as heroes. These heroes every day measure, measure and re-measure their blood sugar, every day will judge and evaluate their activities, moods, and what they eat in order to take insulin doses in order to have good blood sugar levels around the clock. As each day adds several hours to treat their diabetes.

    To having a positive attitude towards life and the diabetes, we know are important, we all want to be positive, but sometimes we need to pull together to find the motivation.
    AnnaPS want ”blue-ring-guy” symbolizes strength to us all diabetics, to a good life and to a simpler life with diabetes.

    I hope you like the blue ring. I myself am a type 1 diabetic since 1998, and I was curious about the story of the blue ring, so I attach it here (source: The Swedish Diabetes Association Svenska Diabetesförbundet).

    I wish you all a nice weekend!

    About The World Diabetes Day (WDD) and the Blue ring
    On November 14, World Diabetes Day observed around the world. World Diabetes Day is a United Nations day that focuses on the millions of people experiencing or at risk of developing diabetes.

    The Day is observed on November 14 due to the Frederick Banting was born on November 14, it was he who along with Charles Best discovered insulin.

    Annually attention International Diabetes Federation World Diabetes Day differently. 2014-2016 is the theme of the day ”Healthy eating and diabetes.

    Äntligen finns det vita kalsonger med fickor för pump för män. Dessutom har vi tagit in dem i vår populära kalsongmodell med dubbla fickor. Perfekt till sommaren!

    Så nu finns kalsonger med dubbla fickor i lager igen, nu i färgerna vitt och svart. Samma material, härlig stadig tencel som andas och transporterar fukt.

    Vad är det då som skiljer mellan kalsonger med en ficka och med dubbla fickor?

    Förutom antalet fickor så är det på insidan av fickan som är skillnaden. 

    Kalsonger med en ficka har en öppning på insidan av fickan där man enkelt stoppar in pumpen och kan alltså stoppa slangen på insidan av kalsongen utan att koppla ur den från infusionsetet.

    Kalsonger med dubbla fickor har ett (nu större) knapphål inuti fickan. För att placera slangen på insidan av kalsongen behöver man koppla loss infusionsetet och trä slangen igenom hålet. Det går enkelt det med. 

    Vi önskar er alla en riktigt fin Kristi Himmelfärdshelg.

    Se gärna 30 sek video på youtube med kalsongerna. Klicka här för att starta filmen:

    Finally, we have white briefs with pocket for men. And in our popular model with double pockets. 
    Now there are briefs with double pockets in stock again, this time in the colors white and black. The same material, lovely steady tencel breathable and transports moisture. 

    What is it that difference between briefs with a pocket and double pockets? 

    In addition to the number of pockets so it is on the inside of the pocket that is the difference. 

    Briefs with a pocket has an opening on the inside of the pocket where you can easily stop the pump and place the hose on the inside of the briefs without disconnecting it from the infusion set. 
    Briefs with double pockets have one buttonhole inside the pocket. To place the hose on the inside of the briefs you need to disconnect the infusion set and wooden hose through the hole. It’s easy too.

  • Sunshine and insulin pump – it is time for bikini

    Do you carry insulin pump and have problems to find a good way to carry your insulin pump during the Summer? Perhaps my story can help you to find an easy way to feel beautiful and relaxed with your pump in the Summertime.
    I love the Summer, it is a warm and healthy time. To protect the insulin and also find a way to carry my insulin pump is necessary. Walking around in the garden or just stay on the beach, I carry my insulin pump in the bikini with pocket for the pump from AnnaPS. Sometimes bikini model in boxer or sometimes with long legs. I really like to make it simple. I don´t have to be afraid of dropping the pump, it´s stays in the pocket. And it is discrete, nobody even see the pump and I like the design. I think the pocket and the popper is a nice detail, making the bikini unique. And I am always handsfree! I can do whatever I want without thinking of my insulin pump. That is freedom for me. Always have all hands free, that is perfect.

    When I need to take a bolus or something else it is easy and quick to take out and in the pump in the pocket. It is easy to close the pocket with the popper to make sure the pump stays in the pocket. I use to place the needle low on my stomach because then I can have the whole tube inside the garment and protect the insulin from the heat and sunshine. It is a small opening inside the pocket to make it possible to have the tube inside the garment.

    I don´t swim with my insulin pump because it isn´t waterproof. When it is time for me to go into bath, I take off the pump from the coupling. Let the pump stay in the bikini pocket and just switch to another pair of bikinipanties. The pump stay easy in the pocket and there are no risk it will fall out from the pocket. I use to place the bikini panties in my bag, protect them from the sunshine. There are also perfect protection of the pump from sand. No sand get into the pocket and the pump. When I have been swimming I put on my bikini panties with the insulin pump in the pocket, assembling the coupling and start the  pump again. I don´t have to hold the insulin pump when I put off and on the garment. The insulin pump stay into the pocket when it is closed with the popper.
    This is simple life for me with my pump in Summertime.

    Ofcourse I have to watch up regarding the heat and the insulin but I use to find a solution for that.

    Would you like to tell me your story regarding insulin pump and Summertime? Please let me know.

    Here you can see a video on youtube in 30 sek, about carrying the pump in bikini pocket, please click on the link: AnnaPS bikini with pocket for insulin pump

    Looking forward to meet the summer again!

  • Need no bag as diabetic – just carry all your things in tank top with pockets from AnnaPS

    As diabetic I can feel sick of that I always need to bring a bag with all my necessary things as Type 1 diabetic. I always need to bring my bs (blood sugar)-meter, my dextro, my cellular phone and my pump. Sometimes I also have my emergency pen with me.

    I then developed a tank top with pockets in sides. Just to bring all my things without using a bag. In the tank top it is an opening on inside to place the pump in the pocket and also have the tube on inside. Then it is also an opening on outside of the tank top, to be used to easy taking in and out things from the pocket.

    I use to wear the tank top under my shirt or T-shirt, it easy to reach the pocket openings and taking out and in what I need. Really discrete, it is fashion with function. And it is so simple, I never have to look for my bs-meter, it is always close to me.

    To show you how to use the tank top I made this video with Josefin showing how to place the pump in the pockets, just 30 sek. Please visit youtube, click on this link:

    Below you can read a letter from Lena (sorry, it is only in Swedish).
    Lena Type1 who is preparing climbing Mount Everst- all diabetes things in AnnaPS garments

    Hej
    I maj 2014 ska en dröm gå i uppfyllelse och jag ska göra mitt livs äventyr.
    Mot Everest
    Min utmaning börjar 1 maj då jag flyger till Nepal. Där ska jag lära mig alpinklättring med yxor och stegjärn.
    Vandra upp till Island Peak Basecamp via Mount Everest Basecamp.
    Hålla jämt blodsocker, ta regelbundna blodsocker kontroller, tillföra energi så min kropp orkar 6-8-10 timmars vandring
    dagligen under 23 dagar, för att slutligen klara toppförsöket mot Island Peak 6128 möh trots min typ 1 diabetes. 50% av de som vandrar upp till Mount Everest Basecamp klarar av utmaningen.
    För mig med typ 1 diabetes blir det inte 1 utan 2 utmaningar, en mot berget och en mot min diabetes. Jag vet inte om någon kvinna med diabetes typ 1 har gjort liknande äventyr. Jag har antagit utmaningen och jag hoppas kunna klara detta.
    Jag, Lena Sturebrand är en glad och sportig 41 årig mamma till två fina pojkar på 10 och 14 år. Hugo min yngsta pojke är född med hjärtfel. När han föddes blev livet inte alls som vi tänkt oss, utan mycket tuffare, med långa sjukhusvistelser, mängder av undersökningar behandlingar och kontroller kämpade vi oss igenom hans första levnadsår.
    Tack vare svensk teknologi, duktiga läkare med hög kompetens och forskning inom området mår vår Hugo bra idag. Det är vi evigt tacksamma för.
    Själv har jag har haft diabetes typ 1 i snart 4 år. Det är tufft att jobba som hygienist vara mamma, jobba som instruktör, träna mellan 10-15 timmar i veckan och vara diabetiker. Sedan i mars 2013 har jag fokuserat på kost, träning och min diabetes för att optimera mina chanser att lyckas på berget och med min utmaning.
    Jag träffar och har träffat många patienter/ kunder med diabetes under mina år som tandhygienist/ instruktör och jag inser att många är rädda och inte vågar leva det liv de vill. Det är tråkigt då jag vet diabetes drabbar fler och fler människor i Sverige och jag önskar att de kan förstå att vi kan och klarar mycket mer än många tror. Jag vet att jag kan inspirera och ge fler diabetiker kunskap, goda råd, hopp och få dem förstå att vi klara mycket mer bara de vågar förändra sin vardag.
    Jag har haft uppskattade föreläsningar under 2013 om att våga vara och leva mitt liv som jag vill och hur jag har lyckats må bra och få fina värden trots min diabetes. Föreläsningarna har varit för läkare och sjuksköterskor via läkemedelsföretaget Roche.
    Jag är en social kvinna med massor av järn i elden, jag jobbar som sagt som Tandhygienist. Jobbar även som instruktör i spinning, GRIT, Functional moves, Bodystep, step, aerobic, core på SATS Västerås. Jag har varit konståknings tränare, fotbollstränare, basket tränare, jag har bott på Grönland i 5 år och jobbat där.
    Jag har gjort tjejklassiker och delar av halvklassikern, jag är med i Winnet kvinnligt företagande och har en egen firma, Moves and Inspiration som jag använder vid föreläsningar och inspirationsklasser. Företag som Roche, Feelgood och Actic har anlitat mig i olika forum.
    Det har skrivits en fin artikel om mig och mitt äventyr i Västmanlands läns tidning.
    Diabetestidningen har också planerat att skriva en artikel om mig i som kommer ut i april.
    Det är ju fantastiskt då jag har möjlighet att påverka och inspirera fler människor.
    Då jag själv har erfarenhet av och ömmar för hjärtsjuka barn har jag påbörjat en insamling till Hjärtebarnsfonden med mål att
    kunna ge dem 30000kr via Inspons- ett hälsosamt givande. Se inspons.se eller Hjärtebarnsfonden.se
    Hjälp mig du också ,låt oss hjälpa barn som föds med hjärtfel.
    Vänligen, Lena Sturebrand

  • Sustainable fashion part 5- common way of producing thread in textile industry, and what does AnnaPS making different.

    In this blogger we explain a common procedure in textile industry, to make the thread from raw material as cotton, wool, oil, silk, wood etc.

    If you would like to make a different, welcome to test wonderful and beautiful underwear’s from AnnaPS ®. There are underwear’s with or without special pockets. Welcome to our webshop at https://annaps.com/wordpress/en/
    For AnnaPS ® it is important to limit the effect on the environment and we put a lot of effort to minimize the effect on the environment during the production of the thread.
    Here you can read about a common way to produce thread, AnnaPS ® have made a lot of different choises make this in another way:
    Common procedure in textile industry when making thread:
    The process from raw material to fabric involves several steps. The raw material is sent from the producer of raw material (that can be a sheep farmer who produces the wool) to the next step which is to make the fibers of that are going to be spun a thread.
    AnnaPS ® make the underwear’s from wood, we use an eco-viscose called Tencel. The trees come from FSC marked forests and are renewable. We like that.
    It is quite common that the raw material is sent quite far to be processed in the next step and the environment is usually hot and humid. There are plenty of insects that like to eat the raw material and it can easily become moldy during transport. Here is when chemicals are used to “protect” the fabric from bugs.
    AnnaPS ® has chosen to make the production in the EU because it does not require chemical treatment for transport. Shipment takes shorter time and the environment is cooler, which means that anti-mold control is redundant. This means we effect the environment less.
    When the raw material comes to the next factory  these chemicals are washed out. Unfortunately, there are manufacturers who don’t take care of waste water in a good way, and chemicals are being released straight out which poisons the soil and water.
    AnnaPS ® follows EU chemicals legislation REACH which regulates the use of toxic chemicals and handling of chemicals also. It’s a tough environmental legislation. This means we have highest requirements when using chemicals and there is no need risk to poison the water when washing the raw material.
    When the fiber is spun into a thread, one will want the color faded down to white so it would  guarantees the right and even color when dyeing.
    Now there is a white thread that is ready to be sent to factories for weaving or knitting.
    AnnaPS is designed and made in Sweden – we care about our beautiful nature

  • Diabetes clothes will help you to a better sleep

    As diabetic with pump it is sometimes lot of problems when you sleep.

    Lots of pump users wake up a lot of times in the night because they have the pump free in the bed and when they turn they start laying on the pump, the hose is straighten and it is a lot of risk to lose the infusion set from the body, which is really bad for the glucose level.

    Lot of pump users feel bad sleeping with the belts. It is not good looking and uncomfortable to wear.

    Some are wearing the pump in a clip on the boxers. No problem until you need to visit the toilet in the nights and you have to put the pump in your mouth to hold it.

    Really big problems start when you have small kids calling in nights or coming and would like to sleep in your bed. The small kids hands and feet are a big risk to catch the hose and then the infusion set is falling off.

    As a diabetic with pump I love my boxers with special pockets for the pump integrated. I always sleep with the pump in the boxers and I sleep so well. I am never disturbed because of the pump. With the pump in the boxers never have to think about the pump and the hose. I don´t even see the pump and I feel good looking. I never wake up because of laying of the pump. I feel safe. And I always have my hands free. I love my boxers with pocket for insulin pump. My special diabetic clothes.

    Do you also would like to sleep well and not have to see or think about your pump in the nights. Please welcome to the website where you can buy the boxers or other special clothes for insulin pump user´s on www.annaps.com

    Good night and have a nice sleep in your underwear´s from AnnaPS.

  • SUSTAINABLE FASHION part 3 – natural or synthetic material

    AnnaPS ® stands for sustainable fashion and has chosen a synthetic fiber in the garments. The fiber is cellulose which comes from trees that can be our spruce and pine trees in the forest. AnnaPS® has chosen wood that is guaranteed to be cultivated in a sustainable manner. The tree fiber is named Tencel® and are manufactured in a controlled way, to secure eco-friendly production, please read more about this fantastic fiber on the producer´s website: http://www.lenzing.com/en/fibers/tencel.html
    And now more about sustainable fashion….what is natural and synthetic material? And what is sustainable and why?
    To make clothes you need to start from a raw material such as trees, cotton, wool, hemp. The raw material is treated into a fiber so that it can be spun into a yarn which is then knitted or weaved to fabric.
    There are two types of fiber, natural or synthetic. The natural fibers are, for example cotton, silk, hemp, flax, wool. These materials are designed so that it is possible to spin a thread directly from the fiber.
    Synthetic fibers are for example viscose (made on the tree), polyamide (made from oil). What is common with these is that the raw material needs to be ”cooked” and the fiber/thread is manufactured in a process similar to spaghetti. The fiber/thread become steadier compared with a natural fiber/thread.
    This implies that both natural and synthetic fibers can be sustainable fashion. Natural fibers are always renewable resource which is sustainable fashion. However, they can be sprayed with chemicals so bad that they stop being sustainable fashion.
    Synthetic fibers can be sustainable fashion or not. If they are made of renewable raw materials and manufactured in a fear way, then it is sustainable fashion.

    AnnaPS has chosen Tencel to secure high quality, soft and wonderful material and produced in a sustainable way. Welcome to www.annaps.com, underwear´s with and without pockets to carry, insulin pump, pen, glucose meter etc.
    Spider web is a natural fiber – excellent!

    AnnaPS garments are made of  Tencel – green fashion, and wonderful material-here pocket for insulin pump in singlet.
