Very interesting indeed. It's good to stay up on these things. My dad has diabetes and a lot of my family members have it as well so I like trying to keep up too. Plus, where I work, our target disease in research is diabetes (though we also do research on obesity, metabolic diseases and cardiovascular diseases). It's actually amazing that there aren't more medicines out there to help with the symptoms and such and more importantly that we're not closer to a cure. Then, the disease is actually REALLY complicated and there are many many different levels/stages of diabetes... it's so much more than just are you type I or type II.

Thanks for sharing this, sweetheart!!!!!!!!

*hugs you*
