This Weeks
Newsletter
March

2002, Issue 96
From the Editors
Desk:
New PDF FILE so you can now print
the newsletter. 
Type 2
diabetes is becoming an epidemic in the adolescent group.
Marilyn Porter, RD, CDE begins a new series with the
feature “Increasing
Awareness of Type 2 Diabetes in Children: Is There A
Need?” Marilyn, who is currently Diabetes Educator
at Southern Michigan Diabetes Outreach Network (SODON) has
extensive experience with adolescent type 2 patients.
Check out the
New Tool for this
week: “PAP”
Patient Assistance Program, that allows patients
that cannot afford their medications to receive a 90 day
supply for less then 20 dollars.
Your patients
all take supplements and natural products. How do you know
if they are good quality or even if they will do what they
say they will? Dr Brian Jakes shares his insights
into this and what he learned while developing and producing
a natural product for diabetes. “What
constitutes successful nutritional supplement
therapy?”
I have had a
chance to review the Joslin Diabetes program, “Issues
related to the care of people with diabetes and its
complications” and this is one CE/CME you will not
want to miss. Please click
here to signup. There is no charge. They
are in the process of lining up remote sites all over the US
so call or email them today. You can also participate at
home via the Internet. But you must be registered to receive
the CE/CME. Only
a few weeks left to register.
Treatments
focused on intensively controlling glucose at the expense of
raising insulin levels and endothelial function may be
contributing to the diabetes epidemic problem while failing
to improve macrovascular disease or longevity. Check out Dr.
Freedland’s special feature “Why
Focusing On Intensive Glucose Control With Drugs Alone Is
Counterproductive
