Denise Faustman Begins Phase 1 Trials
Perhaps one of the most promising areas of research for long time Type 1 Diabetics lies with Denise Faustman and her lab at the Massachusetts General Hospital. She is working on a methodology for treating long standing Type 1 Diabetes through an innovative, and controversial method- by retraining the bodies immune system.
Denise released research years ago showing that her method is able to reverse Type 1 Diabetes in mice, which was later verified by independent labs.
She is finally beginning her human trials! Another year, and we should see some results.
The great part about Denise’s research is that she is looking at curing the disease in people who have had it for many years. Most new trials that are happening right now are for newly diagnosed Type 1 Diabetics who still have some pancreatic function, as opposed to someone with long standing Diabetes.
It is great to have hope! In the meantime, I will stay healthy with my supplement regime and hope for the best.
