NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Results of a study involving nearly 65,000
people point to an association between cancer and abnormally high
blood sugar levels.

These results "have obvious implications for lifestyle guidance, as it
is well known what factors cause blood glucose increases," Dr. Par
Stattin from Umea University Medical Center, Sweden noted in comments
to Reuters Health.

By avoiding excessive fat and other dietary risk factors, and by
getting regular exercise, "you can decrease your risk of
cardiovascular disease, diabetes -- and cancer," he added.

Type 2 diabetes is associated with an increased risk of liver,
pancreas, colon cancer, as well as other cancers, Stattin and
colleagues note in the journal Diabetes Care. However, less is known
about the effect on cancer risk associated with moderately elevated
blood sugar levels among non-diabetic subjects.

Hi Kurt,

I am getting tired of bad news... Tell us something good.

Seriously, thanks for all the info that you posts on here.

Will, T2
