Unfortunately it often works out that many people with type 2 diabetes develop a need for insulin to keep their blood sugar levels under control. For about 30 years the most common low-cost insulin treatment has been Novolin 70/30, a mixture of 70% "slow" insulin and 30% "fast" insulin. Novolin 70/30 is inexpensive... in the US it is 75% cheaper than other insulins and an easy name to remember. Diabetics, type 1 and type 2, take a fixed number of units of insulin once or twice a day. The problem with 70/30 is that you are absolutely sure to have sugars that are too high or too low all the time. The "fast" component of 70/30 can't be raised to cover any increased carbohydrate consumption. If you use...

Initially the town was founded by a man named Henry Rhodes after he obtained a land-grant for 1000 acres from the Republic of Texas in 1841.

Am I the only one who has a car heater who seems to be out to get me? It seems that no matter where I'm driving in the winter, no matter how far or near my destination, it takes 95 percent of the drive for my heater to get 'warmed up' to the point where my car is warm enough so that I'm not stiff with tension from shivering. True, I'm not driving the newest, most up to date luxury car with built in heated seats, but that's because I wasn't willing to pay the equivalent of a second mortgage payment for one of the top end luxury cars who come with that kind of accessory built in. Fortunately, I found a very convenient, effective and affordable solution. Heated car seat covers. You no longer have to...
