I just hope we see it on their channels soon. My overall view of the spot was good but not so sure of the vehicle it was attached too. Low budget non HD tv made the show hard to watch.

Did the commercial clearly show viewers the next step to take if interested, i.e. visit afrezza.com closing? Some have suggested the commercial be inserted on Mannkind's website. It would seem better to place it on the afrezza.com website and direct everyone there. Who cares if diabetics never hear of Mannkind as long as they all learn of Afrezza.

Let's say you're partially right. Let's say there are some T2 that are shocked and horrified by implying a T2 could eat a hamburger. By and large those are probably not the people that are being prescribed mealtime insulin. With the progressive treatment of the ADA guidelines, by definition the people getting to mealtime insulin have a repeated history of NOT managing to successfully take that first step of controlling their diabetes with diet and exercise. Fact of the matter is that being tempted by those sorts of foods (and you're selectively focusing on the bad food, wasn't that one guy making sushi or something) is something that probably a vast majority of the target market struggles with. If the ADA and all the others haven't managed to cure people of their food cravings, let's not hitch MNKD's marketing to trying to sell that idea. I guarantee even more people would be turned off if they thought Afrezza was only useful if combined with lunch of kale salad with sunflower seeds (of which I happen to make a good one... trick is putting the dressing on the night before to soften the kale)... or even if Afrezza commercial came off as preachy about diet. Also, not all were fat, and all we're shown doing something outdoors rather than sitting around watching TV. One was practicing yoga. Looks to me to have presented a pretty balanced swath of real life that patients and friends and family of patients would see reflections of themselves in. To me it said "Afrezza is for real patients living real lives"... bingo! Get peoples' BG swings under control with a better mealtime and you might even find that they feel better and are more active... and can occasionally have a burger when they're at the bbq gathering without guilt. The kale salad tip is money ! Thx DB My tip of the day, Pouring coconut oil over kale makes it easier to scrape off your plate and into the garbage.

Patten is a former member from this board who started his own Afrezza FB page. I don't know it's exact name, and I think you have to ask to join.

( I think Sam and Hillard do also )... Can we do a search for interest in Afrezza on Google for the last month? I can't seem to do it.
