Ron Rosedale – Protein: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
Life is a constant battle between damage and damage control. If we could repair damage as fast as it occurs, we would live forever.

Ron Rosedale – Insulin and Its Metabolic Effects
One thinks of insulin as strictly to lower blood sugar. Today in the clinic there was a patient listing off her drugs, she listed about eight drugs she was on and didn’t even mention insulin. Insulin is not treated as a drug. In fact, in some places you don’t even need a prescription, you can just get it over the counter, it’s treated like candy.
