If you need heady discussion starters at a party, just invite me. I&#8217;m one of those people, the party-goer who can&#8217;t help but (painfully) reveal too much personal information. I&#8217;m wont to bring up politics, religion, illness, personal foibles, etc., just to engage in conversation.

When I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 1999, I went through a nutrition retraining session with a nurse educator. Like other newly diagnosed diabetics, I learned about portion size, how to count carbs, and how to identify foods that could cause my blood sugar to spike.
An enormous amount of information was imparted in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=pokedandprodded.health.com&blog=2779996&post=5124&subd=healthpoked&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Scientists have successfully used a leukemia drug to reverse type 1 diabetes—at least in mice. Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco and Plexxikon, a pharmaceutical research firm, studied two cancer drugs—Gleevec (imatinib) and Sutent (sunitinib)—in non-obese diabetic mice, which were prone to developing diabetes.
Both drugs are tyrosine kinase inhibitors, which interfere with cell [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=pokedandprodded.health.com&blog=2779996&post=4070&subd=healthpoked&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

What I didn&#8217;t say was what those numbers could mean for our health-care system if everyone in the prediabetes group eventually developed diabetes.
