[QUOTE="mountainman, post: 802130, member: 167280"] I wish I could put up sites for you but they will only be deleted on this forum I take it. I know, I didn't believe it two years ago either. Here is the main concept - all injectable insulins are hexamers, that is insulin molecules attached to a zinc molecule. That is the reason it takes so long for it to get into the system and why it takes another 4 hours or for some even longer to be entirely out of the body. It is this "tail" that is the problem, causing the diabetic to potentially have a low unless they eat again 3 hours after the injection. Afrezza is in the system and starting to work within minutes, uptake is fast, it does its job and leaves the body. Afrezza is a monomer that is very rapidly absorbed in the lungs as the lungs are lined with tons of tiny blood vessels. Alfred Mann has said that this Technospere delivery system is the start of how many medications will be delivered in the future, with rapid uptake of the drug and very fast relief - he used migraines as an example where people would suffer with this terribly , yet it is shown that with the medication for pain delivered into the lungs, the migraine is gone in 3 minutes. I read an article on this last week - they showed some test results for different kinds of pain in an emergency room at a hospital where people presented with pain the in back, pain in the arm, pain in the abdomen, and for these cases they chose technosphere to relieve the person of their symptoms. It worked for each of the cases I read. We have not only Afrezza to think about -- we will have a whole new method for taking drugs within a few years from what I see in current trials. Sorry that last paragraph is not diabetes related, but I feel it is important just the same as we learn about a new generation of medications in general. [/QUOTE]
