I'm acquainted with Dr. Faustman's re****t,
having posted the following link to it back
on February 28, 2008. Not to quibble, but
the use of 4 drugs appears to be an entirely
separate approach, so if one is tempted to
be excited that in two entirely separate areas,
recent developments provide hope that a
cure is near, one can view the above re****t
as an independent and promising one.
The above is only related to the following
in terms of the ideal eventual result being
a dramatic improvement in life and health
for ('til now) heavily insulin injection/pump
dependent and heavily food-timing-critical
dependent and heavily sugar-restriction
dependent or (for many type 2s) oral med-
and-restricted-diet dependent + testing-ob-
sessed (for many) + low blood sugar risks
(for many) being life-threatening for + high
blood sugar consequences being adverse
for ...
