WHY IS THE ARTIFICIAL PANCREAS TREATMENT THE ANSWER? For the last 20 years the Artificial Pancreas Treatment (APT) and System has been in development but the problem has always been that the cost of delivering the treatment is too high for the average diabetic patient. It is uncontroverted that APT will stop the complications of diabetes and in many ways will actually reverse the damage caused by diabetes. The Artificial Pancreas Treatment using the FDA-cleared Artificial Pancreas System is now in the final commercial rollout phase where patients can be treated for six months and, with the help of a friend or family member, the patient can be treated at home for three weeks coming back only once a month into the clinic for the first year. After a successful year the patient will be able to be treated once every two months. This approach provides CAT with the answer on how to treat millions of people who are in dire need of stopping and reversing their diabetes complications.

Is it the Chicken or the egg? We can't tell if there is a causation relationship, but diabetes causes cells to produce less energy and that may be the cause of accumulated toxic molecules reported by Dr Lind in Sweden. If so, to treat this condition the ATP enhancing aspects of the Artificial Pancreas System would be a potential treatment. Dr Lind reports that even a modest increase in serum levels of phthalates, found in cosmetics and plastics, can double a person’s risk of diabetes, according to a study. "Although our results need to be confirmed in more studies, they do support the hypothesis that certain environmental chemicals can contribute to the development of diabetes," researcher Monica Lind, PhD, associate professor at the Section for Occupational and Environmental Medicine at Uppsala University in Sweden, said in a news release. Lind and colleagues analyzed new information from a study covering more than 1,000 70-year-old women and men in Uppsala, Sweden. The participants submitted blood samples for analysis of various environmental toxins, including several substances formed when the body breaks down phthalates, which are used as softening agents in plastics and as carriers of perfumes in cosmetics and self-care products. The researchers also found that certain phthalates were associated with disrupted insulin production in the pancreas. Read more...
