Hi Joebob, all sounds a good idea, but it's checking for antibodies to the beta cells that is probably the most accurate way of checking -

Lar myself and others have mentioned vitamin D several times recently - I can only take small amounts but most people can safely take higher doses, it does protect the beta cells too..

and this too....Various adjuvant therapies have been introduced along with intensive insulin therapy in patients with recent onset type 1 diabetes. Nicotinamide (NA), administered at diagnosis of the disease, can have beneficial effects on the clinical remission rate, improve metabolic control and preserve or slightly increase beta-cell function, probably by reducing toxicity due to free oxygen radicals. Vitamin E, a known antioxidant, inhibits lipid peroxidation; this can lead to protection of islet beta cells from the combined effects of interleukin 1, tumor necrosis factor and gamma interferon.

The gut and brain hormone CCK needs sulfate to be activated - so MSM can be useful to stimulate the digestion..most studies on CCK are on rats who's CCK works differently from ours.

and this on cachexia is really good..
