I think it might be time to test the practicality of Afrezza in difficult or impractical situations. Look no further than Musk and his vision of going to Mars. That will be a very long journey, thus an environmentally stable medicine would be necessary, correct. Afrezza has been "played" with on YouTube, various rumors have been spread verifying Afrezza's usefulness after being left in a hot car for days. But if someone were to really be interested in this we could see it unlimited potential with our drug. I previously commented on the idea of using Afrezza in Ukraine, great opportunity regardless of the shitty situation. At this point what have we got to fear?

a refrigeration / non refrigeration study. Useful and I would think affordable. I tried to find Matt Bendall's video, he did a test, Matt put afrezza in a plastic bag in a flowerpot in a green house for a few months. Matt is a seasoned type 1 diabetic. After a few months he got the Afrezza out of the green house and used it. Matt reported his blood glucose levels came down as normal. www.youtube.com/channel/UC7EV3DuK0vfGbnoA6NZotCA/videosThe study may be useful for Trept as well. I do not know the storage requirements. I say we get water heaters to last longer than ten years prior to Mars. Additionally, have you ever considered that creatures could live on Mars, under the surface, and human beings could make great slaves? |

And how will our EV's get to Mars without a bunch-o-charging-stations along the way? 🤔🤪
(Just going along with the impractical situation theme.)

Star Trek, dilithium is an invented material which serves as a controlling agent in the matter-antimatter reactors. In the original series, dilithium crystals were rare and could not be replicated, making the search for them a recurring plot element. Consider an element that is able to lock onto a charge far far away? www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5FyFvgxUhE |

Lol in an impractical sort of way.   Update: The high rate of spinning magnets likely will be more powerful than bourbon on that journey. 🥃 |

Commercially feasible nuclear fusion won’t do anything for Afrezza, but it could go “a long way” to help practical space travel at inter-planetary distances.

Unfortunately Mannkind does not want to do the refrigeration test. Bill asked them about it.

That's just stupid.

It is possible they did a small test and it failed.

Unfortunately Mannkind does not want to do the refrigeration test. Bill asked them about it. I also asked and was told by a couple of engineers that insulin will degrade over time regardless. The “company” did not currently (3 years ago) see the value in trying to remove the refrigeration requirement. Maybe now that they have more $ available, they might reconsider. The storage and transportation savings along with convenience seems to be worth it to me. |

These type ones, know where their blood glucose is when they start, and know how much a 4 unit cartridge brings them down. They said the afrezza worked to bring down there blood glucose levels when stored at room temperature. My assessment, is technosphere will not go to Mars any time soon. Word is that millionaires now pay to go up in the atmosphere and jump around in less gravity for a few mins. That is where the human race is. . |

The scientists inside of us are quick to point out that anecdotal evidence is not proof of anything. But when it proves the point we are trying to make we site anecdotal evidence.

After some prodding they said there was a study which showed stability for 3 months. It maybe one of Dave's lost veins of gold. It would have been done before Mike's time. |

I have used cartridges that have been in my laptop bag for months past expiration and never had an issue. If I recall, Sam Finta also stated in the past he used "expired" non refrigerated cartridges as well
