Don't know. Don't care. Why bother this news group with a question
like this? Google has 584,000 pages on the matter. OK, if it will help
you get lost, I'll do the work for you. Here:

"How Does Chinese Medicine View Diabetes?
In Chinese medicine, diabetes is referred to as xiao ke or wasting
thirst syndrome. The cause of wasting thirst syndrome is understood to
be a deficiency of yin, along with a heat pathogen affecting the
lungs, stomach, and kidneys. When yin is deficient, heat is produced.
When heat is present it "burns up" yin."

Well for a start to this perplexing problem, there is Type I and Type II
diabetes.

Then another clue is that the international symbol for diabetes is an empty
blue ring [empty circle]...

And... "In Taoist philosophy, yin and yang arise together from an initial
quiescence or emptiness, sometimes symbolized by an empty circle"...

Bill, VFW is a big time troll. The answer is less important to him
than the social interaction he achieves from responses.

Type I is an actual disease (broken pancreas) whereas Type II is a lifestyle
problem (too much sugar, not enough exercise).
