Don't just listen to Jenny OR Kurt--look up the documents and studies
they cite and evaluate them yourself.

i have to admit...
i wouldnt take the advice of a total newbie on their evaluation of studies.
i wouldnt want that same newbie to take it either.
if a newbie feels they are qualified to evaluate studies, most of the time i
think they are wrong


It looks to me like it doesn't take that much smarts to look at the
results of one's blood test in the morning on a empty stomach,
see that it is 116, look at the "official range" of 100 to 126,
(for pre-diabetes), then ask oneself: gee, where does 116 fall
within that range? Could it be...in the middle?

Sorry to get snarky here, but geez!

Or are you saying that the 100 to 126 range is not correct?
If it isn't, would somebody please direct me to the medical
oraganization that has a better grip on it than eith the ADA
or the NIH? Because if neither of them have a good enough
grip on it, how could I expect any doctor to?


thanks,

Tracy
