Diabetes is a serious lifelong illness that affects many Australians. Imagine having to cosntantly monitor your blood sugar and inject insulin every day for the rest of your life. That's on top of possible side effects such as kidney damage, damaged eye sight, heart problems, and the risk of losing limbs through infection.
While there are reasaonbly good ways of managing diabetes, it's obviously better avoided in the first place.
Our guest today is Dr Charmaine Simeonovic from the John Curtin Medical School of Medical Research (see http://www.canberratimes.com.au/act-news/researchers-in-diabetes-breakthrough-20120904-25czg.html#ixzz2Pm8Ah7yv)
