May 1, 2014

By David Mendosa


Flamingo

My Talk to the Diabetes Summit​:

I will talk about “My 20 Year Journey with Type 2 Diabetes” on May 5, day 1 of the Reversing Diabetes World Summit. Dr. Brian Mowll, the host of the summit, recently interviewed me for it. But you don’t have to wait until then to hear it. You can click here to hear it on your computer now.


My New Diabetes Articles for HealthCentral:

Last month HealthCentral published four more of my diabetes articles about all aspects of the condition:

Managing Diabetes with a Strange Fat
Fatty fish gives us the omega-3 oil that we need. But a new study shows that fish oil supplements don’t work.

Best Vitamin D Choices for Diabetes
We have five ways to get the Vitamin D that we need. One of them doesn’t work.

A Vitamin D Surprise for People with Diabetes
The bad news is that most of us don’t get enough vitamin D. The good news is that we know now how much we need and it’s not a lot.

The Best Way to Check Our Diabetes Control Is Back
People with diabetes can buy the A1CNow meter again. From a new company.


Fitness and Photograph for Fun:

Last month I published three more of my articles on staying fit by getting the activity we need. Photography gets me to hike, and hiking keeps me fit:

Arches
Sue and I visited Arches National Park in the heart of the desert known as the Colorado Plateau. This is the most dramatic and my favorite national park in the entire state of Utah.

Rock Climbing in Eldorado
I took Sue to Eldorado State Park, in part because of her rock climbing interest and experience. We saw and photographed several climbers attempting to climb the Bastille, a huge rock formation.

Owlets
Two trips to a Great Horned Owl nest near my home in Boulder brought us close to owlets just before and after they fledged.



New Flickr Site

I keep added some of my favorites nature photographs on Flickr.com. In the past month I have added several more. You can find them the easiest way by clicking here


Dr. Bernstein's Webcast

It's an hour of excellent diabetes education available free either on the Internet or by phone. You can click here to register http://www.diabetes911.net/askdrb/index.php.
