It was announced yesterday that a drug currently in use here in Au for
reducing copper levels in blood has been found to alter the amount of a
blood borne protein which in diabetics is about 20% of normal .
Currently going into human tests shortly this drug by restoring blood
proteins effectively eliminates type II consequences with a simple
daily pill restoring life to normal
Time will tell but this Sunday on Au tv there will be an short
programme about this drug .

Along the same lines, yesterday I read that bariatric weight loss
surgery does the same thing. Go figure. It's not related to the
lost weight.

This is the US. Expect a 20 year study in order to protect drug industry
profits.

Once the drug is tested ( if not before) people will use it anyway as
you can't stifle sharing knowledge
this should offer more information after the program is shown tomorrow

http://au.news.yahoo.com/video/national although being shown on the
Brisbane local I expect it will appear here on the national

There is really more politics than science behind who gets to sell what in
the US market.
There are lots of drugs approved in other countries that are not approved
here. Some for health concerns, others for patent concerns. Or the foreign
drug would undercut a much more expensive US drug. It took 25 years for
ulcer therapy common in Europe to be approved here in the US. Why? Well
the makers of all those anti-acid drugs wanted to protect their market. Had
nothing to do with health at all.
