the Editors Desk:
 Kristina
Sandstedt, MS, Clinical Exercise Physiologist, Diabetes Educator,
brings us: Diabetes and Heart
Disease—How Exercise Can Help Both – if you are new to our
site you will probably want to check out her archives.
And if you need even more motivation to
get your patients to exercise check out this week’s “Tools for
Your Practice” Print and handout: Ten
Reasons Why Your Adult Patients with Diabetes Need To Exercise”
This
weeks overview: Item
#1: HRT can reduce diabetes risk by 35%. Item#4
describes the benefits of using metformin in Type 1 patients , and
Item#9
tells us that if you are an overweight medical professional, don’t
expect your patients to heed your advise.
If
you missed Dr.
Rosens, The Seven Percent Solution, from last week, we suggest
you read it this week. Maybe if we had every patient read this it
might make a difference
Dr. Brian P. Jakes, Jr., ND has
prepared an overview of Hypertension
and Hyperinsulinemia and some novel approaches to each
condition.
