"YOUR HEALTH
We speak enthusiastically about
the wonder drugs of today.
bk
EI. 3
Let us not forget of the wonder
drug of yesterday—insulin.
Bo
No recent medical discovery has
surpassed insulin in its spectacular
effect on the medical world of
thirty years ago.
* * Pk
It immediately saved thousands
of lives and permitted those
doomed to an early death to live
instead a normal life with a full
span of years.
* Ed %
Insulin, unlike most other won-
der drugs, has never been synthe-
sized and is still procured, some-
what expensively, from the pan-
creas of animals.
Ao
Similarly with the newer drugs,
insulin was found to be a two-
edged sword capable of doing harm
as well as good.
ole Vie
In order for insulin to be of
benefit to the patient, it must be
used as a calculated part of an
over-all regiment of treatment.
* * #
The basis for medical care of the
diabetic patient calls for education
about each case and its control.
* Pi *
To determine the best insulin
dosage for the individual diabetic
patient requires careful observation
on a controlled daily diet with fre-
quent tests for sugar in the urine.
* * bx
As to the amount of insulin the
diabetic patient will need, it is nec-
essary first to establish the amount
of food he will require for health
and work, and when it is to be
eaten.
* * ok
Physical exertion and sickness
also influence the requirement for
insulin.
ok WE
Most elderly patients who have
diabetes do not require insulin for
its control.
*® 3 "
Overcomplication of treatment
discourages many diabetics while
oversimplification leads to laxity of
control and increased complica-
tions.

Yellow fever killed ten per cent
of the entire population of Phila-
delphia in 1793.
