Twice as Effective as Metformin: The Power of Lifestyle Changes for Diabetes
Despite these impressive results, the program's emphasis on weight loss through fat and calorie restriction reflects an outdated view of metabolic health. Today, it's clear that blood sugar regulation involves far more than just cutting calories. So what other lifestyle interventions might offer even greater benefits?

Prices fell 0.3% on month in June. On an annual basis, new home prices fell 2.8% in July, versus a 3.2% drop in June. Sign in to access your portfolio

Phillies plan to use 6-man rotation with Aaron Nola's return from IL, says manager Rob Thomson
Aaron Nola is scheduled to be activated from the injured list and start for the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday against the Washington Nationals. With Nola's return, manager Rob Thomson told reporters on Thursday that the Phillies will go with a six-man rotation for at least one turn. Jesús Luzardo started the series opener on Thursday with Zack Wheeler scheduled for Friday and Taijuan Walker — who Thomson said was the No. 6 starter — going on Saturday. After Nola starts on Sunday, the rest of the rotation will line up with Ranger Suárez starting against the Seattle Mariners on Monday, followed by Cristopher Sánchez on Tuesday. Thomson's decision might look smarter after Luzardo gave up three runs on four hits and three walks in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Nationals. Suárez has also struggled recently, allowing five or more runs in three of his past five starts. In Thomson's view, the starters' workload is wearing them down. "Just getting some of these guys some extra rest because we've been grinding on them pretty hard all year," Thomson said, via the Associated Press. "The one downside to it is you've got to take somebody out of your bullpen, so you're a little short there but we'll just have to figure it out." Philadelphia leads MLB with 687 1/3 innings from its starting pitchers. Sánchez tops Phillies starters with 150 2/3 innings, while Wheeler has logged 144 2/3 frames. After Thursday's start, Luzardo is at 139 innings, followed by Suárez with 112 1/3. Nola returning to the rotation should help relieve some of those innings. However, he may take a while before he can build up a higher workload. Nola hasn't pitched for the Phillies since May 14 after suffering a sprained right ankle that he initially tried to pitch through before going on the IL. That may be why he compiled a 6.16 ERA and 1-7 record before being sidelined. In his three rehab starts, Nola collected a 2.19 ERA in 12 1/3 innings with 17 strikeouts — including 11 in his final appearance. At 69-52, the Phillies go into the weekend with a five-game lead over the New York Mets (64-57) for first place in the NL East. The Mets lost to the Atlanta Braves on Thursday, 4-3.

Massive new blow for Souths as club rocked by more bad news about Latrell
Wayne Bennett has revealed Latrell Mitchell won't play in the Rabbitohs' game against Parramatta on Saturday night due to a pinched nerve in his back. Mitchell made his return from a quad injury last weekend, helping Souths beat the Titans to move off the bottom of the NRL ladder with four rounds remaining in the regular season. But he's been struck down by more bad luck and won't be able to take his place against the Eels in Round 24. Speaking to the media on Friday, Bennett revealed Mitchell won't play due to a pinched nerve in his back that he picked up last weekend. The State of Origin player didn't participate in the captain's run on Friday morning, with Bayleigh Bentley-Hape expected to switch to centre and Tyrone Munro coming in on the wing. Mitchell made his return in the centres last week after an earlier than expected return from a quad issue that sidelined him for a month, which saw Jye Gray remain at fullback. 'He's not playing. He's pinched a nerve in his back and he's not mobile enough,' Bennett said. 'He did it in the game (last week). We're disappointed he's not playing but we think he should be back next week. 'He's disappointed because he's hardly played any football in the last three months. You can be sad about it, you can be anything you like about it. But the bottom line is that he's not playing and he's not fit to play.' In better news for Souths fans, Bennett said Cody Walker will play and start on the bench. The veteran playmaker has suffered a number of soft tissue injuries this season and struggled to string games together. Walker's absence has been part of a wider issue that's seen Souths decimated by an unprecedented injury toll. Souths players not allowed to talk about wooden spoon Mitchell's absence will put Souths in danger of slipping back to the wooden spoon if they lose to Parramatta and the Titans cause an upset over Cronulla. The Rabbitohs and Knights (18) are currently just two points ahead of the last-placed Titans (16), while the Cowboys are on 19 and the Eels 20. Bennett has never taken the wooden spoon in 37 years of coaching in the premiership, although he did receive one in 1981 while coaching Brothers in the Brisbane Rugby League. 'It's a word we're not allowed to say,' Jacob Host revealed last week. 'He (Bennett) just avoids it at all costs. "We've had a lot of injuries this year and performances in certain areas haven't been as good as we wanted it to be, but we're trying to go out there and keep fighting with the gloves up each week.'

The superstar centre laid on two tries for Alex Johnston and saved one when he knocked the ball out of Jayden Campbell's grasp over the line. "We probably don't win if he doesn't play," Bennett said. "The other guys have all been playing their hearts out and doing their best. He's just a quality player, in the top four or five in the country, and showed that today."
