"The New Zealand flatworm was first spotted in Ireland in 1963. Now it has spread to England and Scotland. It is literally a flat worm - and it likes to gobble our earthworms. The problem is that if earthworm numbers drop, the soil will become less fertile without their help, which will lead to poorer crops. If you see a flatworm - report it."  MoreRepts World Summaries TV/Radio

"If you have diabetes your pancreas doesn't produce enough insulin - which is needed to turn sugar into energy for the body to use. Diabetics must inject extra insulin Exercising uses up energy and makes the blood sugar level go down. This can make diabetics ill. They have to eat something to put their sugar levels back up."  MoreRepts World Summaries TV/Radio
