About this work
Description
The film outlines in simple terms the incidence and mechanism of diabetes, and describes in some detail how the diabetic can live a normal life through diet alone, or through diet and the use of insulin. The technique of self-injection of insulin is then demonstrated and is followed by an illustration of a routine urine test. A brief description of the manufacture of insulin is given, and the final sequences provide examples of some cases and symptoms of hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia.
