Diabetic Recipes
I spoke with my pediatric endo today about my new diabetes community venture. First, I want to give a great big thank you and shout out to him. He is doing amazing things in the diabetes community. Thanks for being the best doc and putting up with me, Morey!
We talked about new treatment options that are coming into play. One of the ones we discussed is using the hormone amylin to control postprandial blood sugars. Amylin is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the beta cells (the ones that produce insulin). The body gives amylin with insulin when glucose is consumed. They have found that low levels of insulin are typically accompanied with low levels of amylin.
