Last month, we asked you to estimate how much Drs. Banting and Best were paid by the University of Toronto for the original insulin patent back in 1923.
More than 100 people had the correct answer ($1… Canadian).
But nobody replied faster than Joanne Cunha from Dallas, Texas. Joanne is originally from Canada and is mom to a 12-year old daughter with type-1 diabetes. Congratulations Joanne!
Now, $1 might not seem like much. But remember this was in 1923. Back then, $1 could buy an entire 6-pack of beer (Moosehead?)… which Banting and Best probably split to celebrate.
NEW QUESTION for DECEMBER:
Our website https://integrateddiabetes.com features a slew of useful, informative and interactive components. Check out some of the content and then see if you can guess which page (other than the home page) consistently receives the greatest number of “hits” or “views”?
*The first person to submit the correct answer wins their choice of book from our in-store or online bookstore.
