In addition to diet, these methods can help you prevent type 2 diabetes!

July 8, 2019 news / BIOON / - if you have high blood sugar but not high enough to be diagnosed with diabetes (so-called pre diabetes), your doctor may suggest to lose weight, eat less fat and more fiber That sounds like a one size fits all, and you may be inspired by the fact that other diets can be equally effective, if not better, in preventing type 2 diabetes Suggestions for eating less fat, more fiber and moderate weight loss come from a series of large-scale randomized controlled trials, which show that this method can help up to two-thirds of people to prevent type 2 diabetes However, in these trials, the most important predictor of prevention was not diet itself, but weight loss The more weight a person loses, the lower the risk of type 2 diabetes What's more exciting is that weight loss can prevent type 2 diabetes, even if the body weight rebounds Photo source: http://cn.bing.com so, what diet can be more effective than a low-fat, high fiber diet? A low carb diet has been shown to produce a stronger weight loss effect in the short term If weight loss is the main driver of type 2 diabetes prevention, a well-designed low carbohydrate diet rich in non starch vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds may be as effective as current standard recommendations There is increasing evidence that adding protein to the diet may help control blood sugar levels, reduce liver fat (which is closely related to insulin resistance), and even help the pancreas produce insulin The latter is important because when a person is in pre diabetes, they lose the first stage of insulin response - the rapid peak insulin that occurs when blood sugar levels rise The first phase of the insulin response is a key function of rapidly inhibiting glucose release from the liver It also promotes the absorption and consumption of glucose by muscles Without insulin, high blood sugar can cause glucose to stay elevated for hours after a meal Emerging evidence seems to suggest that the protein appears to help the pancreas to some extent increase its initial insulin peak Small but promising trials have shown that increasing protein may be better than a low protein diet in controlling blood sugar levels Photo source: http://cn.bing.com avoiding type 2 diabetes - a recent large clinical trial (direct) with more than one dietary option, and a series of smaller physiological trials have shown that people with type 2 diabetes who lose weight rapidly can recover the first stage of insulin response This effect is most pronounced in people who have not had type 2 diabetes for a long time This suggests that this effect is greater in prediabetes Reducing calorie intake seems to be an independent factor in improving pancreatic function In some studies, people only consume 400 kcal per day for seven days in a row, with little effect on weight loss, but the pancreatic function seems to have improved More choices a large Spanish study recently (predicted) showed that adding extra virgin olive oil and nuts to the Mediterranean diet helps prevent type 2 diabetes, even if you don't lose weight We don't know how extra virgin olive oil or nuts can help prevent type 2 diabetes, but a growing number of studies have shown that a group of compounds called polyphenols found in these foods (as well as coffee, tea, berries and red wine) have a variety of health benefits These polyphenols may help reduce inflammation, which can damage pancreatic cells and lead to insulin resistance Photo source: http://cn.bing.com of course, the "best" diet refers to a diet that one likes and suits one's lifestyle As a result, these diets may not only be more effective than low-fat, high fiber diets (which should be tested in large-scale trials), but also offer more options for people who want to prevent pre diabetes from turning into type 2 diabetes Reference: [1] avoiding type 2 diabetes - there is more than one die to choose from [2] what is type 2 diabetes? 【3】 Prediabetes： what's it all about？ 【4】 Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes 【5】Alain J Nordmann et al Effects of Low-Carbohydrate vs Low-Fat Diets on Weight Loss and Cardiovascular Risk Factors A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials Arch Intern Med 2006；166(3)：285-293 doi：10.1001/archinte.166.3.285 【6】Ilaria Malandrucco et al Very-low-calorie diet： a quick therapeutic tool to improve β cell function in morbidly obese patients with type 2 diabetes The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition， Volume 95， Issue 3， March 2012， Pages 609-613， https：//doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.111.023697 【7】 Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial
