    A sugar found naturally in red meat may help explain why high consumption of the food has long been linked to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, according to new research. Preliminary results of an observational study presented at the annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Milan, Italy, September 28–October 2, found that people with the highest intake of a sugar called N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) had a significantly greater risk of developing typ

After two decades of being told my pain was anxiety, that I was overreacting or that nothing was wrong, it was the first time a doctor had truly validated what I had been living through since I was 14.
