Dear Friends,

We are herewith presenting the eighth issue of our monthly Diabetes News Letter (June 2009) from Jothydev's Diabetes and Research Centre titled "JDC Diabetes Gems". We express our sincere gratitude to our readers, well-wishers and friends for the highly encouraging feedback we have been receiving from the very first issue onwards. We commit ourselves to let our loyal readers base know the latest clinical research results and innovations in diabetes care and hope to touch the patients’ life in a positive way through every edition.

This issue has topics ranging from our own prestigious study presented last week at 69th ADA conference about the significant role CGM playing in motivated individuals in modifying their life style and diet to latest trials giving surprising insights about the working of metformin. We also present a section on importance of including zinc in a healthy diet, as preliminary studies show that zinc is helpful in preventing diabetes risk in females.
