Millions of low-risk people with diabetes may be testing their blood sugar too often
(Michigan Medicine - University of Michigan) For people with Type 2 diabetes, testing blood sugar levels becomes part of everyday life.

Topinambur - new possibilities for use in a supplementation diet.
Abstract Jerusalem artichoke (<i>Helianthus tuberosus Linne</i>) is a tuberous perennial plant of the Asteraceae family, which originates from North America, and is also known as wild sunflower or topinambur (TPB).

For ages it was cultivated due to being both an edible tuber and having healing properties. In folk medicine, TPB leaves are used for the treatment of bone fractures and pain.
