The dosage of insulin which keeps these (the depancreatized) dogs alive has not been increased or could not be diminished.Insulin therefore does not lose its power in the course of time. but on the other hand no organ of the body can assume the function of the pancreas and reduce it. But this is not quite whole story. Regularity in administration has allowed a gradual reduction in dosage and conversely the dosage had to be notably increased when a deficiency of insulin developed in the body either as a result of insufficient doses or because of voluntary suspension of treatment. (page 22)

       Pancreas is so valuable that the capacity of survival is greatest. It was known that as much as 9 out of ten part of pancreas can be removed, and animal will still alive.  In early Insulin Ara there were many studies done to try the way how to treat and cure diabetes. It is different then now. That's why to find out more about diabetes it is best way to return to older publications such as E, Joslin and Conferences books. Best info I found so far in books which were published before 1980, when WHO developed universal classification of types of diabetes.
      I take all reading and all doses of insulin I injected in my log books, and I keep these books, so I can see how dose of insulin and level of sugar come together, when dose of insulin going up or down, and under what reason I suspect it is happened.
     Still, I do not understand, why my dose of insulin going up and up? Why it does not stay the same day after day? There are not so many differences in my life. Day after day about the same. There is no activity which would demand more insulin then usual. I am stay home, low active person. Regardless of my activity are high or low the dose of insulin suppose to be the same.
       The same about my doeiet. Regardless it is high in carbs and fat or low, it is the same day after day, so it should not effect readings and dose of insulin.
      The real fact is different. 
Today sugar is 65 mg/dl. Dose of insulin was 467 units Yesterday
Yesterday sugar was 66 mg/dl. Dose of insulin day before was 374 units.
Day before sugar was 61 mg/dl. Dose of insulin was 347 units.
Day before sugar was 87 mg/dl. Dose of insulin 414 units.
      Now there are questions:
Why dose of insulin higher to keep sugar level in range?
Is this would be the same if I will take the same dose of insulin day after day, then how level of sugar would be different?
      I do not play with my life or well being. I simple keep going day after day. It is not my goal to study and answer to the questions which are very reasonable to ask.  My goal is to keep sugar level as closer to the normal range as it is possible. So, reading are first priority, and dose of insulin is only to keep reading in tight control.
       Still I do have questions and I try to find the answers. What are difference between dog with pancreas removed and human diabetic?
     Dog was healthy at the time when dogs pancreas was removed.
     Diabetic was already ill when diabetes was diagnosed and treatment started.
All organs of dog functioned and there were no developed complication or any health issue. In diabetic all organs of the body and body functions were effected by diabetes long before it was diagnosed that there is problem with pancreas. Many diabetics died long  before they got treatment. Most of diabetics never have the treatment they need.  Diabetic's lungs, liver, mobility, blood quality all in lower ranger compare with healthy human. It did not started yet in depancreatized dog.
     Dog lives in lab under constant supervision of staff.
     Diabetic live at home.  There is not too much attention how diabetic feel, ill, sick, or well.
It is signature of our time. Go to Google and see what you have to say to doctor when MD Rx medicine to you. No one mention that it is actually doctor who must ask patient if one has history of stones development before Rx Ongliza. Every one do know very well that it is not the case we do have copy of results our visits to any clinic or lab. Not at all. But every doctor ask me what diagnoses I do have, when and how I was diagnosed with what. What treatment did I have for mu condition.
      Well, there are clots in my blood. What MD said to me? That I do have clots in my blood. What MD Rx to me? Antidepressant. Every one is smiling. Why not? Every one do know I am idiot, do not understand what clot in blood mean. The matter of fact I do understand. What they do not understand that MD does not want to Rx any effective medicine, or sent victim of malpractice into hospital. Not at all. I have to walk back home, alone, at night, more then 10 bloods away from home on dark NY Streets. It is taken for granted that patients are idiots, and Med Pro are smart and know-how-and -why.

Undernutrition prolonged the life of such animals, whereas over-nutrition with any kind of food shortened it. (Allen dogs.)

This findings now very widely used to treat 95% of diabetic population.  What is difference between Allen's dogs who were treated with diet before insulin was discovered by Dr. F. Banting? Dogs did not go to work. They did not provide family with living, did not pay rent. Diabetics type 2 today must go to work and take care for children and families.
 Low nutrition kept dogs alive. Diabetic must keep himself/herself not only alive but functional on diet 400 calories how it is suggested by ADA. And ADA even pretend that diabetic type 2 would be cured. Dr. Allen famous patient was able to still alive for three years, did not go to school and was under constant supervision and care her nurse. Still, she did not recovery. Only insulin discovery saved her live.
