Comment Is there a cure? (Score 1) 140

Can there be a real cure for diabetes? The glucose eaten can only have a few destinations:

  • 1. Get burnt,but obviously the limitation is how much physical activity the subject has
  • 2. Glycogene storage, which is limited
  • 3. Fat storage, almost unlimited
  • 4. Stay in blood for the kidney to remove it, this is diabetes

What can we expect from a drug? Moving more glucose to fat storage? It is better than diabetes, but still much less desirable result than eating less carbs..
