About the recent insulin articles
There have been various articles and media stories about whether there is a correlation about pre diabetes
insulin
resistance
and fibromyalgia. Also, whether the use of the drug metformin can treat fibromyalgia pain and give relief.

Comfort food ... and diabetes
She was never diagnosed early enough to know one way or the other whether her hyperglycemic crisis was precipitated by
insulin
resistance
leading to glucose toxicity. Whatever the case, she apparently controls it well with diet plus an insulin pump.

Type II Diabetes and Blood Glucose Testing
As mentioned before I am a firm believer of BG testing for Type IIs even if not on insulin. Whilst the HbA1c gives a good indication of average BG it does not show how it was achieved. Research shows that if BG stays in a narrower band the chance of complications are reduced compared to the same HbA1c

Keto questions
I've been hearing a lot about keto recently, and I'm planning to give it a go. I have a few questions, and figure this is the best place to ask! 1. Should you do anything to prepare for keto? I've heard people say it's a good idea to preceed keto with a period of 16:8 fasting, to regulate insulin levels

Really bad hunger attack...
I was getting these really bad hunger attacks since being on prednisone. I assume it is an insulin problem. Have had glucose checked and everything is fine. Since going on very low carbs (about 9 weeks) I have been getting less of these attacks. Yesterday I had a rare attack of hunger and shaking .

What happens when the insulin gets frozen
Hi friends I have read it on various forums that when the insulin vials/cartridges are kept at 30 or 34 degrees C (higher than the recommended temperature), its efficiency may go down by a few percentages. Does a similar effect take place when the insulin gets frozen, i.e., efficiency goes down? or it

Why is Intermittent fasting so popular BBC article.

Anyone used self- injector pen for b12?
I am a whimp, despite having insulin dependent diabetes and thus inject daily, I am thinking I need to start self injecting B12 more frequently than NHS/ surgery offer. Been looking at website wedgewood highlighted for Danish firm unionmedico.com. I’m assuming i’d need intra muscle device, and was looking
