After eating, the following occurs:
----glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) are released and control your blood sugar(glucose)
---GLP-1 and GIP are called incretins
---Incretins control insulin secretions>>insulin controls blood sugar
---Incretins are rapidly destroyed by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4)
---Sitagliptin (JANUVIA) stops the breakdown of incretins by inhibiting the enzyme DPP-4
---the incretins then hangs around your blood for several hours making sure that you continue to release insulin. GLP-1 reduces the amount of glucagon release. Glucagon causes blood sugar to increase. Incretins have a lot of effect among then:
reduction of food intake, delayed stomach emptying (making you feel full longer), prevention of weight gain, and expansion of beta-cell (cells in the pancreas that release insulin)

I just installed Windoes XP Pro on a MacBook Pro 2.16 Ghz 2 GB RAM. Intallation finished without a hitch. Here are some benchmark with Cinebench. CINEBENCH 9.5 64-bit app. Tester : Processor : Core duo MHz : 2.16 Number of CPUs : 2 Operating System : Graphics Card : Resolution : Color Depth : Rendering (Single CPU): 287 CB-CPU Rendering (Multiple CPU): 571 CB-CPU Multiprocessor Speedup: 1.99 Shading (CINEMA 4D) : 311 CB-GFX Shading (OpenGL Software Lighting) : 1189 CB-GFX Shading (OpenGL Hardware Lighting) : 2025 CB-GFX OpenGL Speedup: 6.51
