There is some tech insert that is being tested for Type 1Diabetics (went to convention about diabetes where a doctor doing the first human trials was talking). The initial test was with a product the size of a credit card & produced insulin on demand. The speaker believed they could get it down to the size of a stamp.
It is frustrating that over 10 years later they still haven't released it to the public. That doctor said in their first phase that Type 1 Diabetics didn't need any insulin & their glucose levels ran normally with no spikes.
They had just finished a 3 or 6 month trial IIRC & the next phase was to look at a trial that would last years. I am hoping the FDA didn't kill the project.
Agreed, I hope this can help them.
