addition all the Manufacturers were there with new product ideas and
medication programs. The new FreeStyle Tracker is available and
they have a great new system from iControl Diabetes so you and your
patient can check glucose records anytime, anywhere.

AVANDIA
MAY SLOW TYPE 2 PROGRESSION
(Watch
for Actos to make same claim to fame)
It only makes sense that all the insulin sensitizers will slow the
progression of type 2 diabetes.
If you make the cells more sensitive to the bodies own insulin, it
doesn't have to produce as much and you won't overwork the pancreas as
much, therefore helping to prevent beta cell depletion.
