G'day G'day Julie,

The link works just fine for me. Sometime intermittent problems
occur with sites. You might find it working if you try again. If not
the guts of the article are that pancreatic cancer is strongly linked
to smoking. There is also a WEAK link to T2 diabetes or at least to a
combination of high insulin and high glucose.

Moral of the story.

Reduce insulin resistance via exercise and keep to a diet and/or
medication that keeps good control of blood glucose.

Best wishes,

Exercise is not enough when there is significant visceral adiposity.

Weight loss in overweight type 2 diabetics can not be overemphasized.

Thankfully, there is now the diabetic 2PD-OMER Approach for safe
permanent weight loss:

Would be more than happy to "glow" and chat about this and other things
like cardiology, diabetes and nutrition that interest those following
this thread here during the next on-line chat (12/15/05) from 6 to 7 pm

The most significant risk for Pancreatic cancer is smoking, and this
study was a study only of smokers.

I know two people who have died of pancreatic cancer. One was a smoker,
the other, in their 80s, thin life-long and clearly not diabetic.
