Just what are we thinking?
We don't take our medicine correctly, we skip out of blood tests and doctors visits, we don't excercise and ignore diet guidelines. No wonder we're sick.

Diabetes: Breast-feeding May Help Babies and Women Against Diabetes
Babies and women may be protected against developing diabetes
disease through breast feeding, according to new research. This
current study states that the longer women nursed, the lower
their risks of developing diabetes.
Diabetes as a medical disorder characterized by varying or
persistent elevated blood sugar levels, especially due to
eating, is a serious disease which symptoms are very similar for
all types of diabetes. Breast feeding is when a woman feeds a
baby or a young child with milk produced from her breasts. The
best thing for feeding a baby is breast milk, as experts say, if
the mother does not have transmissible infections. Although
study findings are not conclusive, researchers explain that
breast-feeding may change metabolism of mothers which may help
keep blood sugar levels stable and make the body more sensitive
to the blood sugar-regulating hormone insulin.
This theory is based on some evidence that show that in rats and
humans that are breast-feeding, mothers have lower blood-sugar
levels than those who did not breast-feed.
According to the study published in the Journal of the American
Medical Association, women who breast-fed for at least one year
were about 15 per cent less likely to develop diabetes type 2
than those who never breast-fed. For each
additional year of
breast-feeding, there was an additional 15 per cent decreased
risk.
A total of 157,000 nurses participated in the new study. They
answered periodic health questionnaires and were followed for at
least 12 years. During the study, 6,277 participants developed
type 2 diabetes.
