Editor’s Note: “Complementary” Diabetes Products, GLP-1 Slides Wrap-up, and Mixed Insulin Order Clarity

With the plethora of information available on the internet and the uncountable amount of products available to “treat diabetes naturally” it is only normal to expect that our patients will try different products. This is especially true if we tell them that they have “pre-diabetes.” This week’s Case Study gives some insight into ways to talk to patients about “complementary products.”

Our Homerun Slides focus in on the cardiovascular benefits of native GLP-1 and analogs of GLP-1, and this week’s Diabetes Disaster Averted points out the need for clarification of how orders of mixed insulin are written and interpreted.
