Children who eat less salt drink fewer sugar-sweetened soft drinks and may significantly lower their risks for obesity, elevated blood pressure and later-in-life heart attack and stroke. view more (2008-02-21)
Sufficient evidence for reducing sugar intake to tackle obesity? (p 1068)
A Viewpoint article in this week's issue of THE LANCET considers the evidence behind a recent WHO/UN report to restrict consumption of free (added) sugars to counteract obesity and concludes: 'when considered in aggregate they [available studies] provide considerable evidence to suggest that sucrose and other free sugars contribute to the global... view more...

Too much fructose could leave dieters sugar shocked
Here's one tip for how to eat at the holidays: Don't take your cues from Santa. The sugary cookies and fat-laden fruitcakes the mythical North Pole resident eats are a no-no. But you don't have to go no-carb to stay fit at the holidays, either, University of Florida researchers say. view more (2007-12-13)

Antidepressant medication may prevent recurring depression in diabetics
The antidepressant sertraline may reduce the risk of recurrent depression and increase the period of time between episodes of depression in patients with diabetes. view more (2006-05-02)
New project to analyze why Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and insulin resistance are so closely linked
Understanding the link between Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and insulin resistance is the aim of a new project announced today, funded by the charity WellBeing of Women. view more (2007-03-13)
Potential association of type 2 diabetes genes with prostate cancer
Scientists have identified six new genes which play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes, and among the group is the second gene known to also play a role in prostate cancer. view more (2008-03-31)
Sugarcoating fruit fly development
Proteins are the executive agents that carry out all processes in a cell. Their activity is controlled and modified with the help of small chemical tags that can be dynamically added to and removed from the protein. view more (2009-06-01)
Intensive blood sugar treatment in trial of diabetes and cardiovascular disease changed
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health has stopped one treatment within a large, ongoing North American clinical trial of diabetes and cardiovascular disease 18 months early due to safety concerns after review of available data, although the study will continue. view more (2008-02-07)
Sweet -- sugared polymer a new weapon against allergies and asthma
Scientists at Johns Hopkins and their colleagues have developed sugar-coated polymer strands that selectively kill off cells involved in triggering aggressive allergy and asthma attacks. view more (2009-11-20)
Research shows skeleton to be endocrine organ
Bones are typically thought of as calcified, inert structures, but researchers at Columbia University Medical Center have now identified a surprising and critically important novel function of the skeleton. view more (2007-08-10)
Protein power: Researchers trigger insulin production in diabetic mice
If the human body were a stage, then proteins would rank among the lead actors in the play we call "Life." view more (2008-01-09)
Insulin boost restores muscle growth in elderly
When most people think of insulin, they think of diabetes - a disease that arises when, for one reason or another, insulin can't do the critical job of helping the body process sugar. view more (2009-09-28)
Study: highly involved patients don't always see better health outcomes
Patients who prefer to be highly involved in their treatment don't necessarily have better luck managing chronic health conditions, a new study suggests. view more (2008-02-25)
People with diabetes more sensitive to cardiovascular effects from air pollution
People with diabetes may be at higher risk for cardiovascular problems when air pollution levels are higher, according to a new study of Boston-area residents. The ability of the blood vessels to control blood flow was impaired in adults with diabetes on days with elevated levels of particles from traffic and coal-burning power plants. view more (2005-05-31)
Scientists Discover What Plants Do During Long Winter Nights
In research published today scientists at the John Innes Centre (JIC), Norwich(1), report on what plants do during the hours of darkness. During daylight hours plants use the energy from sunlight to power the production of food (sugar) from carbon dioxide and water. This process (photosynthesis) is well understood, but what happens when the sun... view more... (2003-12-29)
Diabetes drugs of the future
COMMON blood-pressure drugs that help prevent the life-threatening complications of diabetes may do so by slowing the accelerated ageing from which diabetics suffer. The discovery could one day lead to drugs that delay some of the symptoms of ageing in everyone. People with diabetes tend to age rapidly, particularly if they have type 1 diabetes,... view more...

Drugs against winter vomiting disease one step closer
The virus that causes winter vomiting disease invades cells by attaching to particular sugar molecules on the surface of the cells. view more (2009-06-11)
Cause of diabetes-related erectile dysfunction is clarified by Johns Hopkins researchers
A new study from the Brady Urological Institute at Johns Hopkins suggests an over-supply of a simple blood sugar could be a major cause of erectile dysfunction in diabetic men. view more (2005-08-10)
To Maximize Biofuel Potential, Researchers Look for Sorghum's 'Sweet Spot'
Picture this - IV (intravenous) lines in a sorghum field. It's not as far-fetched as it sounds. It's one way that scientists at the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station are researching crops that may contribute to the biofuel revolution. view more (2007-09-13)
