Expert Reviews Cannot Be Trusted
The results of the most important research in diabetes in the past 25 years have not been conveyed accurately to doctors, claim researchers in this week's BMJ. These findings have far reaching implications for how the current medical information system transmits new research results from academia to practitioners. Thirty five reviews on treatment... view more... (2003-07-30)
Glucose levels trigger compensation for type 2 diabetics
Many individuals with type 2 diabetes are diabetic because the cells of their body no longer respond to the hormone insulin, which is crucial for lowering blood sugar levels (blood glucose levels). view more (2007-01-03)
Pure fructose frequently confused with high fructose corn syrup
As researchers continue to examine the role of sweeteners in the diet, it's important that people understand the differences among various ingredients used in scientific studies, according to the Corn Refiners Association (CRA). Interchanging two distinctly different ingredients, such as pure fructose and high fructose corn syrup, creates... view more... (2009-03-05)
