Complementary and Alternative Medicine: Fair, Balanced, and to the Point
  • About this web log

    This blog ran from 2006 to 2016 and was intended as an objective and dispassionate source of information on the latest CAM research. Since my background is in pharmacy and allopathic medicine, I view all CAM as advancing through the development pipeline to eventually become integrated into mainstream medical practice. Some will succeed while others fail. But all are treated fairly here.

    The Centers for Disease Control has just published the latest data on the prevalence of diabetes in the US.

    • 11% of adults aged 40 to 59 years
    • 23% of those 60 and older have diabetes

    Is it any wonder that so many CAM therapies are studied in people with diabetes?

    A quick listing of CAM entries for diabetes on this blog is provided below. Or, click the button on the right sidebar to see all of the diabetes entries.

    In addition, Amy Tenderich?s blog, Diabetes Mine, is essential reading for all people with diabetes, plus their loved ones, and their caregivers.
