Destination Diabetes had the privilege of talking with Dr. Richard Bergenstal, the Vice President of Medicine & Science of the American Diabetes Association. Dr. Bergenstal has dedicated 30 years of his career to making life better for people with diabetes.

Recently, the ADA surveyed 1,000 men with type 2 diabetes, age 40-60, as well as 1,000 female spouses of men who have type 2 diabetes. The survey assessed their general knowledge of type 2 diabetes and associated complications.

The ADA has information on its website dedicated to men’s health issues. For more information, please visit www.diabetes.org/menshealth.

We have added two new Insulin Pumps, the Minimed Paradigm 522 Insulin Pump and the Minimed Paradigm 722 Insulin Pump. The Minimed Paradigm 522 holds 176 units of insulin, while the 722 holds 300 units of insulin. These pumps will work with the Minimed Paradigm Glucose Sensor 10 Pack, Minimed Paradigm Glucose Sensor 4 Pack, and the NovaMax Link Blood Glucose Monitoring system.

These Pumps will work wirelessly with the NovaMax Link Meter.
