Diabetes is a common condition in which the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood is too high because the body is unable to use it properly. This is because the body´s method of converting glucose into energy is not working as it should. Diabetes can lead to serious complications, such as heart disease, strokes, amputations, eye and kidney damage, and premature death. In developing countries, diabetes is the fourth-ranking cause of death.
Without question, diabetics have been slaves to syringes long enough. An effective insulin capsule has been long awaited by diabetics everywhere. Fortunately, Oramed is working to turn their dream into a reality in the near future.
Oramed´s accomplished team is preparing to move its patented technology towards clinical trials, to be conducted at the Hadassah University Hospital in Jerusalem.
