I am just making the rounds to SlogBite member sites and using SlogBite’s new game to make the site choices for me, and this time your site was chosen. If you haven’t tried it you really should give it whirl. http://www.slogbite.com/particpant-features/slog-machine

BTW, I am in the process of making the SlogBite categories even more granular. I want to enable SB members to create an accurate profile of your site using the SB categories to show off your best and/or most important posts/articles. Therefore, if you have the time, please let me know what additional categories you would join if I created them. You can, and should get very specific. Take a look at SB's category list and leave a comment as to what else you would like to see. http://www.slogbite.com/joining-slogbite/category-list

Be careful: obesitas and high cholesterol occur simultanteously with diabetes mellitus 2 in many cases.
That doesn't always mean they are the cause.

New research is showing that onesitas and high cholesterol can be the consequence of diabetesmedication.
