Diabetes! Good! no more need to count calories or cut our sugar intake anymore. Canadian scientists seem to have found a cure to diabetes. This is actually bigger than a cure to Diabetes, this is a huge medical breakthrough that reveals a new understanding on the role of the nervous system to our health.

Human testing is said to start in a year, It' d be pretty sick if this pulls through.

Now that' s some good news.
My own mother developed type1 after her heart surgey this year. I know from her how much of a pain in the ass it is. If this turns out to be effective on humans it' s going to affect a LOT of lives in very positive ways.

And the potiential of nervous system/ immune system link is almost too great to fathom. A completely different way of looking at diseases and treatment.

Fantastic news, diabetes is a terrible disease that thousands suffer from. I just hope the treatment is just as successful with humans as it was with Mice.
