Matt 11: 28 (KJS) "Come unto me, all {ye} that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke{is} easy, and burden is light." - February 14, 2009

Glucose, a simple sugar, is the body's main fuel.  It is present in the bloodstream, but in people with diabetes it cannot get into the cells where it is needed.  In type 1 diabetes (which was once referred to as childhood-onset diabetes), the problem is an inadequate supply of insulin, the hormone that ushers sugar into the cells of the body. Without insulin, the cell membranes keep sugar out. About 5 to 10 percent of people with diabetes have this type.

 
The more common type of diabetes, type 2, usually does not  occur until adulthood. In this form, there may be plenty of insulin in the bloodstream. Over the short run, people with uncontrolled diabetes may experience fatigue, thirst, frequent urination, and blurred vision. In the long run, they are at risk for heart disease, kidney problems, disorders of vision, nerve damage, and other difficulties.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)- Children who consumes high levels of dairy products may have a greater risk of developing colorectal cancer in adulthood, study findings suggest among nearly 5,000 individuals followed for an average of 65 years, those who grew up in families reporting the highest levels of dairy consumption--nearly 2 cups per day--had close to three-times the risk of colorectal cancer compared with those from families reporting the lowest intake, Dr. Jolieke C. van der Pols and colleagues report.

 
The level of milk consumption in the high-dairy group was similiar to the estimated average daily intake of children in the United States, van der Pols, of the University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia, and colleagues noted.      The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, December 2007 - March 7, 2009
