Diabetes is perhaps the biggest epidemic we all face today. Most of us are walking around as a type 2 diabetic. We don't even know it. The complications that are caused from diabetes can be very difficult. Ranging from bad circulation, heart disease, loss of limbs, loss of eyesight. For those of us who are not type one diabetic's we can develop Type 2 later in life.

For the type 1 diabetic they are forced to give them sells multiple injections every day of their lives.

Accord to the story on Philadelphia CBS TV there is a new product on the market named Afrezza. It's in inhaled insulin that was developed by MannKind Corporation. It's a mealtime insulin. It's fast acting and leaves your body rapidly after your meal. The product is not widely known but users who have been hunted longer than 12 months rave about the fact that their blood glucose levels were the best that they have ever been. Additionally is reduced their AIC to almost nondiabetic levels.

This is diabetes awareness month and we all should pay attention to our health. If you're diabetic or have a friend who is a diabetic please have them check it out Afrezza The only inhaled insulin product on the market. https://www.afrezza.com

One final point is that the company is public traded it has been under attack by shorts/hedge funds who do not want the company to succeed. So if you want a good investment but it is an underdog but has tremendous potential check out their stock symbol MNKD. MannKind trading at .65 per share.

Please buy MNKD stock so I can dig out of the deep red. So far the Trump market hasn’t done much for MNKD.

I was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Took aggressive steps to control my blood sugar, and now I’m consistently down around 112-118

National Diabetes Month is observed every November so individuals, health care professionals, organizations, and communities across the country can bring attention to diabetes and its impact on millions of Americans.

More than 400 million adults were living with diabetes in 2015 and this number is expected to increase to around 642 million or one in ten adults by 2040.

In the context of that writing, does he mean in America or world wide?

Prayers indeed for the brilliant medical minds researching treatment therapies and perhaps even a cure for insulin-dependent diabetes.

I’m borderline Type 2 due to Gastropresis very slow digestion and inability to eat fiber foods, haven’t hit the point the ENDO wants a med yet. Just morning blood sugar readings. I watch my weight like a hawk because diet is more glycemic than a normal persons diet is. It’s tough not to have sweets even in the form of fruit. But undigested food can form Bezoars in the gut and that means surgery to remove.

A1C1 and Ketone are normal so far. He treats my Hypothyroidism too.
