Diabetes Cure?

I read this article on MSNBC.COM tonight called Beating Diabetes. The article cited "former diabetics" who claimed by changing their lifestyles they restored their blood glucose levels to normal and no longer have to take medicine. On the other hand, the medical community does not believe these patients are cured - they believe diabetes (at this time) is a one way street.

However they classify you, diabetic, former diabetic, diabetic in remission or cured diabetic, it can be nothing short of fantastic to have excellent blood sugar levels and delay the need of medicine!

The Heart Health Scare in Black America

This article, regarding the Heart-Failure crisis in Black-American, appeared in Newsweek on Friday, April 10, 2009.

Todd Bowen, a 42-year-old father of seven, has been visiting the In the Cut barbershop in Inglewood, Calif., every two weeks for seven years. He likes to look good, but he never expected his tonsorial routine to save his life. In February, Bowen arrived at the shop to find not only his barbers, but also a doctor doing on-the-spot testing for hypertension and diabetes. Bowen, who is uninsured, had never been tested for either; that day he tested positive for both, with a blood-pressure reading of 160/89. "I was all shaken up when I saw where I was on the scale and where I was supposed to be," Bowen says. "I thought I was invincible, immune. If they wouldn't have been there, I wouldn't have gotten tested. I wouldn't have went out of my way. It was God's will for that to happen to me."
