Since it is well established that thiazide diuretics often cause diabetes, it well may be the later. About Dr. Moore Dr. Moores received his MD from Indiana University, and his Ph.D. in biophysics from Purdue University. Starting in 1963, Dr. Moore spent 40 years as a college professor and research scientist teaching and researching cellular biophysics. Dr. Moores research group research group discovered that insulin regulates the activity of the mechanism that exchanges potassium for sodium in live cells. Dr. Moores group also discovered that, connected with this, insulin elevates the pH inside cells. This research and that of others then led to insights in how our dietary imbalance between potassium and sodium cause hypertension and other diseases.
