Letter from the Editor

There is no doubt that we put a lot of focus on physical activity when it comes to diabetes. We do this based on the fact that physical activity burns glucose, and so levels tend to run lower and A1c’s improve. This week, our own Dr. Sheri Colberg takes a look at how the right activities can positively affect every part of your body, and keep your patients feeling younger and healthier.

Can You Slow or Reverse Aging with Physical Activity?
By Sheri Colberg, PhD
In the recent past, we discussed how to know if joint problems (e.g., overuse injuries) are due to being active, aging, or diabetes, but let’s just focus on aging by itself this time around. We’d all love to slow down normal aging or even reverse some aspects of it, but is that even possible?

The Correlation Between Fasting Blood Glucose and Strokes
Stroke has been linked to diabetes, but can analysis of fasting glucose provide greater insight into who is most at risk?

Can Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors Slow Alzheimer's Progression in Diabetes Patients?
DPP-4i may lower the amyloid burden in Alzheimer’s patients and improve cognitive impairment.

The Rationale Behind Glycemic Worsening in Children and Adults
Are there predictors of glycemic worsening among patients recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes?

Weight Loss Surgery and The Long-Term Impacts for Patients with Diabetes
Weight loss surgery may change the way the brain responds to food cues.

Small Weight Loss Provides Positive Glucose Control for T2D
A loss of as little as 2-3% of a patient’s total body weight can help them achieve better blood glucose levels.
