That's why antibiotic research was halted in favor of obesity drugs, because they are only taken for 7-10 days while the other would be taken forever (more money). They don't want to cure anything, they want you to be on a drug permanently (symptom management), and hopefully have to take other drugs for the side effects from taking the first one too long. |

You can get the ingredients at the health food store. They have done scientific studies at some major universities that proves it works to cure diabetes type 1. But since it is natural and can not be patented they are not interested in promoting it. |

Type 2 diabetes is a cake walk compared to type 1. the destruction done to my body is amazing. the destruction done to my social life, work life, finances , and psyche is also amazing. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1440282 When I think of these evil drug companies not wanting to find a cure, I get hostile beyond belief. When I was in the hospital for my heart attack and triple bypass at age 48, , caused by too many years of diabetes,the nurse said they would never allow a cure. Too much money is being made in maintaining diabetes. This should be pinned and there should be a march on washington to demand public funding on this. The cost should be minimal since the vaccine used is almost 100 years old and is already FDA approved for other illnesses.

All told her there wasn’t enough money to be made in a cure that used an inexpensive, generically available vaccine, Faustman said.

From the Clinic of the Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, Pharmazentrum Frankfurt/ZAFES, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Corresponding author: Urs Christen, [email protected]. Despite a large number of epidemiologic associations, clinical studies, and animal models, a direct involvement of pathogens in the etiology of human type 1 diabetes is still a matter of critical debate. Human enteroviruses (HEV), such as coxsackievirus B (CVB) and echoviruses (EV), have been associated with type 1 diabetes since the late 1960s (1) and have been found in pancreatic isolates of type 1 diabetic patients ( 2– 4) (rev. in5). However, there are several difficulties hampering the conviction of HEV as inducers of type 1 diabetes: 1) pancreatic biopsies are not done on a regular basis in type 1 diabetic patients; 2) HEV infections are frequently found in nondiabetic individuals and often remain asymptomatic; 3) the clinical manifestation of type 1 diabetes may occur years to decades after infection (virus infection as a “hit-and-run” event); 4) type 1 diabetic patients as well as healthy individuals undergo multiple virus infections throughout their lifetime, some of which might even protect them from rather than induce autoimmune disease; and 5) genetic predispositions might cover possible environmental (i.e., virus) factors. In this issue of Diabetes, Schulte et al. ( 6) address the mechanism by which HEV infection of human islets might influence type 1 diabetes onset and/or progression. They found that monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) efficiently phagocytosed CVB3-infected human and porcine islets. Phagocytosis of CVB3-infected islets induced the … |
