Even though at-home use of an inhaler or insulin pen can be extremely important, doctors have to pretty much just hope that patients are doing it right. A new system, however, could objectively assess patients’ technique within their homes, and let the… Continue reading AI monitoring system warns patients of improper inhaler usage
In a healthy pancreas, the hormones insulin and glucagon work in tandem to keep blood sugar levels in check, but sometimes this relationship can break down and lead to what we know as diabetes. Scientists at the University of Texas (UT) Southwestern ha… Continue reading Cell conversion method cures diabetes in mouse models
A new systematic review and meta-analysis published in the British Medical Journal has concluded adhering to a low-carbohydrate diet for six months is the most effective dietary strategy to put type type 2 diabetes into remission.Continue ReadingCatego… Continue reading Metastudy affirms low-carb diets can reverse type 2 diabetes
An incredible proof-of-concept study from a team of European scientists has demonstrated the development of a novel insulin molecule that can sense blood sugar levels and self-adjust its activity in response to a patient’s needs. The experimental molec… Continue reading Self-adjusting insulin promises safer blood sugar control for diabetics
A fascinating new study, published in the prestigious journal Nature Communications, is shedding light on a previously unknown mechanism by which a hormone released from the gut in the hours after eating effectively switches off the body’s fat producti… Continue reading Discovery of mechanism that switches off fat production after eating
Through a newfound understanding of the way insulin secretion is triggered in pancreatic cells, scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have uncovered an exciting new pathway for the development of treatments for type 2 diabetes. Not only doe… Continue reading Rewiring the metabolism of pancreatic cells may keep diabetes in check
If you ask power companies and cell phone carriers how much electromagnetic radiation affects the human body, they’ll tell you it doesn’t at any normal levels. If you ask [Calvin Carter] and some other researchers at the University of Iowa, they will tell you that it might treat diabetes. In …read more
For many type 2 diabetics, keeping blood sugar to healthy levels is a painstaking task involving regular monitoring and insulin injections, but scientists are pursuing more convenient ways to manage the condition. Among them is a research group at the … Continue reading “Remote control” for diabetes tackles blood sugar with electromagnetism
You’ve had a terrible night of fragmented sleep. You’re feeling groggy and out of sorts. So naturally, the first thing to do is drink the biggest, strongest coffee you can get your hands on. A new study from the University of Bath is suggesting that ma… Continue reading New study recommends drinking coffee after breakfast, and not before
