When mice with the human equivalent of Type 2 diabetes were injected with the protein FGF1, their blood sugar levels returned to normal over two days. Just one injection of the protein both regulated these levels and even helped reverse insulin insensitivity – the underlying cause of diabetes.
Published in the journal Nature, the research on FGF1 could revolutionize diabetes treatment.
In addition to being effective against diabetes, the protein has several advantages over current diabetes drugs. It does not result in dangerous side effects seen with other diabetes drugs, such as heart problems, weight gain, or hypoglycemia. Additionally, FGF1 not only increased insulin levels but also helped the mice regain their own ability to regulate insulin.

Heck with the cure, I just want a dollar for every treatment that came down the pike during the last 40 or 50 years that the media claimed was a cure.
Oh, gosh I’d be able to have potato chips agin.
It is, they keep lowering he acceptable blood sugar level to increase the demand for mitigation products.
Wow! This is strange. Hope it works. Thanks for the flag.
