DIABETES 101:
=========================

HYPOGLYCEMIA: A SIDE EFFECT
OF DIABETES MEDICATIONS

Hypoglycemia can occur in people with diabetes who
take certain medications to keep their blood glucose
levels in control. Usually hypoglycemia is mild and
can easily be treated by eating or drinking something
with carbohydrate. But left untreated, hypoglycemia
can lead to loss of consciousness.

Although hypoglycemia can happen suddenly, it can
usually be treated quickly, bringing your blood
glucose level back to normal.

CAUSES OF HYPOGLYCEMIA

In people taking certain blood-glucose lowering
medications, blood glucose can fall too low for
a number of reasons:

- Meals or snacks that are too small, delayed, or skipped

- Excessive doses of insulin or some diabetes medications,
including sulfonylureas and meglitinides. Alpha-glucosidase
inhibitors, biguanides, and thiazolidinediones alone should not
cause hypoglycemia but can when used with other diabetes medicines.

- Increased activity or exercise

- Excessive drinking of alcohol

PREVENTION

Your diabetes treatment plan is designed to match your
medication dosage and schedule to your usual meals and
activities. If you take insulin but then skip a meal, the
insulin will still lower your blood glucose, but it will
not find the food it is designed to break down. This
mismatch might result in hypoglycemia.

To help prevent hypoglycemia, you should
keep in mind several things:

- Your diabetes medications. Some medications can cause
hypoglycemia. Ask your health care provider if yours can.
Also, always take medications and insulin in the
recommended doses and at the recommended times.

- Your meal plan. Meet with a registered dietitian and agree
on a meal plan that fits your preferences and lifestyle.
Do your best to follow this meal plan most of the time.
Eat regular meals, have enough food at each meal, and
try not to skip meals or snacks.

- Your daily activity. Talk to your health care team about
whether you should have a snack or adjust your medication
before sports or exercise. If you know that you will be
more active than usual or will be doing something that
is not part of your normal routine -- shoveling snow,
for example -- consider having a snack first.

- Alcoholic beverages. Drinking, especially on an empty stomach,
can cause hypoglycemia, even a day or two later. If you drink
an alcoholic beverage, always have a snack or meal at the same time.

- Your diabetes management plan. Intensive diabetes management
-- keeping your blood glucose as close to the normal range as
possible to prevent long-term complications -- can increase
the risk of hypoglycemia. If your goal is tight control, talk
to your health care team about ways to prevent hypoglycemia
and how best to treat it if it does occur.

FOOD AND COOKING
=========================

A MIDDLE EASTERN SALAD
SUITED TO THE AMERICAN TABLE

Tabbouleh has come a long way in its journey from the
mountains of ancient Lebanon to the contemporary American
picnic table. The refreshing bulgur wheat salad is served
cold and fits into any summer meal.

Recipes for tabbouleh vary widely, but all call for
the nutty, light brown bulgur to be mixed with chopped
greens - usually parsley and mint.

Tabbouleh is a perfect fit for the predominantly plant-based
diet recommended by the American Institute of Cancer Research
to reduce the risk of cancer and other chronic diseases.

Bulgur - wheat kernels that have been steamed, dried and
crushed - is a nutritious staple in the Middle East. It has
a tender, chewy texture and comes in coarse, medium and fine
grinds. The fine bulgur works best with the other ingredients
in tabbouleh, and better absorbs the lemony dressing.

Whole grains like bulgur are rich in many substances that
are cancer-protective: phytochemicals, vitamin E, niacin,
zinc, iron and magnesium. They also contain more fiber
than refined grains.

Parsley and mint are sources of cancer-fighting agents, too.
Parsley has the antioxidants found in all dark green, leafy
vegetables. And mint contains limonene and luteolin, both of
which are believed to fight breast cancer.

For tabbouleh, the flat (Italian) parsley is preferable
to its curly cousin because it has a more intense flavor
and better texture.

If you have really good summer tomatoes, they can be
used diced, in place of the cherry tomatoes. Use
whichever has the better flavor.

Chopping the greens by hand gives the salad a nice texture,
but if you have a food processor with a good, sharp blade,
it will save some time. After you make the tabbouleh, let it
sit for a minimum of two hours so the varied textures and
flavors can develop and blend. It's an easy dish to prepare,
and tastes even better the next day.

TABBOULEH
Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

-  1/2 cup fine bulgur
-  1 cup boiling water
-  1 pint cherry tomatoes, quartered
-  1 cup finely-chopped flat-leaf parsley
-  2/3 cup (about 1 bunch) finely-chopped fresh mint leaves
-  1/3 cup finely-chopped red onion
-  1-2 cloves garlic, or to taste, finely-minced
-  Juice of 1 lemon
-  1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
-  Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

In a large bowl, pour boiling water over the bulgur.
Let stand 30 minutes, until the bulgur has absorbed
all the liquid and is softened.

Place tomatoes in a colander over sink or large bowl
and use fingers to break them down slightly to drain
off some liquid and eliminate some seeds.

Add parsley, mint, onion and garlic to the bulgur and
mix with a fork. Mix drained tomatoes into mixture.
Drizzle in lemon juice and olive oil and mix well with
a fork. Mix in salt and pepper to taste. Cover and
chill 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, before serving.

DIABETES RELATED DEFINITIONS
AND EXPLANATIONS
=========================

SEGMENTAL TRANSPLANTATION

contains insulin-producing cells is placed in a person
whose pancreas has stopped making insulin.

=========================
DIABETES Q AND A:
=========================

QUESTION:

How can diabetes hurt the retinas of my eyes?

ANSWER:

Retina damage happens slowly. Your retinas have tiny blood
vessels that are easy to damage. Having high blood glucose
and high blood pressure for a long time can damage these
tiny blood vessels.

First, these tiny blood vessels swell and weaken. Some
blood vessels then become clogged and do not let enough
blood through. At first, you might not have any loss of
sight from these changes. This is why you need to have a
dilated eye exam once a year even if your sight seems fine.

One of your eyes may be damaged more than the other.
Or both eyes may have the same amount of damage.

Diabetic retinopathy (REH-tih-NOP-uh-thee) is the medical
term for the most common diabetes eye problem.
