Is the end of insulin jabs in sight?. New treatment made from diabetics' skin could 'reboot' the pancreas. 
Breakthrough found way of turning skin cells into healthy pancreatic cells
These could replace those damaged in type 1 diabetes, scientists believe
And spell the end to the grind of insulin injections for millions worldwide 

 
A more natural treatment should also cut the odds of developing the disabling and deadly complications of the disease, which range from heart attacks, strokes and blindness to nerve and circulatory damage and amputations.

 

 

 
In diabetes, the body struggles to produce or use insulin, a hormone needed to convert the sugar in food into energy - so new treatments are urgently needed.
The U.S. research capitalises on a technique that allows scientists to use a cocktail of vitamins, genes and other compounds to turn one type of cell into another.

 
The researchers, from the Gladstone Institutes and the University of California, San Francisco, found the right recipe to turn human skin cells into healthy, fully-functional versions of the pancreatic beta cells that are damaged in diabetes.

[www.keralites.net] How to Tell If You Have a Magnesium Deficiency

 

How to Tell If You Have a Magnesium Deficiency

Fun & Info @ Keralites.netMagnesium is one of those vital vitamins your body needs to work properly. Without it your body cannot effectively regulate cholesterol levels or break down fat. Magnesium also controls the production of antioxidants, proteins and enzymes. Magnesium is also responsible for creating and repairing DNA and RNA strains. Usually you get it from foods and beverages you consume, but increasingly people are suffering from deficiencies of it – four out of five Americans are said to have a deficiency. The good news is that your body lets you know when it's lacking in minerals. Here are the 8 outward warning signs that you might have a deficiency.
1. Easily injured
Magnesium plays a vital role in your muscle health and ensures that your bones and musculoskeletal system functions correctly. One consequence of a magnesium deficiency is that you develop osteoporosis. This means you will get injured fairly easily and your muscles will be much weaker, because magnesium builds blocks of muscles and produces proteins. This symptom is one of the more tell-tale ones in having a magnesium deficiency. It's recommended that you take calcium and magnesium supplements in this case.
 
2. Bad headaches
Fun & Info @ Keralites.netThere are many causes behind the classic headaches but if you find yourself suffering from severe migraines or tension headaches, this could indicate a magnesium headache. You can try alter this by eating foods rich in magnesium or magnesium supplements to see if the headaches subside. If your headaches persist you should be in contact with your physician to investigate other possible causes.
3. Insomnia
While the most common cause behind the tens of millions of insomnia cases is stress, it can also be caused by a magnesium deficiency. If you find yourself having difficulty falling asleep or your waking up during the night, it's best to have your magnesium levels checked out.
 
4. Muscle cramps
Magnesium plays a key role in making sure your muscles are relaxed and support your body's general cellular function. Since you use your muscles daily it's important to provide them with the right minerals so that they function correctly. Both a lack of magnesium and potassium are well known causes of muscle cramps so it's recommended that you increase both of these minerals via supplements.
 
Fun & Info @ Keralites.net5. Hypertension
The leading cause behind hypertension, also called high blood pressure, is an intake in sodium. The second cause is a magnesium deficiency, and it is a notable symptom of this deficiency. It might be worth considering a magnesium supplement before resorting to strong prescription medication.
 
6. Anxiety and depression
A lack of magnesium might actually be bringing you down or giving you anxiety and panic attacks. Magnesium controls your mood and works to calm your body. The common modern day problems of anxiety and depression might be driven by low magnesium levels. It's worth trying magnesium supplements for a few days to see if there's a change in your mood before committing to antidepressants.

7. Muscle pain
Low levels of magnesium are known for causing muscle cramps it can also trigger more severe muscle pain, known as fibromyalgia. This painful symptom is a tell-tale sign of a magnesium deficiency. To test whether your fibromyalgia is magnesium related take supplement pills for a few days to see if the pain subsides.
8. Spikes in blood sugar
Magnesium is also an important component in leveling out your blood sugar level and works to improve glucose absorption. If you notice that your blood sugar spikes or that you are feeling tired all the time, no matter how much you eat, you might be magnesium-deficient. Similarly you might be running low on magnesium if you are chronically fatigued and develop adrenal fatigue.
