         Some of our anti-DU friends are claiming DU causes 
diabetes.  Consider this:  "In the early part of the twentieth century, 
uranium was used therapeutically as a treatment for diabetes, and persons 
so treated were administered relatively large amounts of uranium by mouth."

         The link is <http://hps.org/publicinformation/ate/q746.html> (the 
HPS Q and A section), and the answer is by Ron Kathren.  See the beginning 
of the third paragraph.

         More ----  at this link 
<http://globalresearch.ca/articles/MOR407A.html> Leuren Moret lists 
approximately 90 illnesses she claims are caused by DU, and an additional 
15 to 20 illnesses (each) that it causes specifically in children, women, 
and men.  It's a large table just under halfway down the page.
