Neither do I have any friends like that. It is just a perception I get from reading comments online and Political Forums. :mrgreen:

More news on Aussie Scientists ...
Australian researchers are closer to finding a new treatment for type 2 diabetes after discovering a link between protein intake and improved control of blood glucose in mice.

Researchers at the Australian National University have found that mice that have problems digesting and absorbing proteins are highly efficient at removing glucose from blood.

Lead researcher Professor Stefan Broer said this occurrence was "precisely what individuals with diabetes fail to do".

"What we have found out is that these mice are exceptionally good at removing glucose from the circulation after a meal," he said.

"This is a problem that people with diabetes usually have and so we thought that this research potentially provides a new target to improve treatment of type 2 diabetes."

About one million Australians suffer from type 2 diabetes, with about two million more at risk of developing the chronic condition.
