Researchers have recently discovered frog skin peptides which have been shown to stimulate the release of Insulin for “in vitro” and “in vivo.” The recent discovery shows the potential to possibly treat for people suffering from Type 2 Diabetes. The frog skin produces 5 different types of peptides which have shown […]

The appendage uses a system of latches, springs, and levers to release the blow. In addition to the initial strike, researchers discovered that a second round of energy […]
