Eating food in order can lower the glucose and insulin levels after meal, study says

June 25, 2015 By Stephanie James 1 Comment

foodResearchers have found that people with type 2 diabetes and obesity who eat protein and vegetable before carbohydrates show lower post meal glucose and insulin levels as a result of consuming food groups in that particular order.

They think that suggesting an eat-this-then-that rather than an eat-this-instead-of-that approach to diet control may be more effective way for type 2 diabetes and obese patients to keep their disorders in check.

Dr. Louis Aronne, a professor of clinical medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College said, “Carbohydrates raise blood sugar, but if you tell someone not to eat them — or to drastically cut back — it’s hard for them to comply. This study points to an easier way that patients might lower their blood sugar and insulin levels.”

The study consisted of 11 people eating meal of ciabatta bread, chicken bread, lettuce and tomato salad with low-fat dressing, steamed broccoli with butter an orange juice twice, on separate days, a week apart.

The first week, researchers had participants eat carbohydrates, ciabatta bread and orange juice, first, and then 15 minutes later eat everything else for protein, vegetables and fat.

The second week, participants are protein, vegetables and fat first, waited for 15 minutes and then ate carbohydrate.

Glucose levels were taken for all the participants 30, 60 and 120 minutes after each meal.

They found glucose levels to be much lower at 30,60 and 120 minute check, by 29 percent, 37 percent and 17 percent, when the vegetables and proteins were eaten before the carbohydrates .

Aronne said, “Based on this finding, instead of saying ‘don’t eat that’ to their patients, clinicians might instead say, ‘eat this before that,’ while we need to do some follow-up work, based on this finding, patients with type 2 might be able to make a simple change to lower their blood sugar throughout the day, decrease how much insulin they need to take, and potentially have a long-lasting, positive impact on their health.”

The findings of the study are published in Diabetes Care.

Repeated use of certain prescribed antibiotics may up type2 diabetes risk

A new study has found that intake of specific types of antibiotics on regular basis may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes.

The researchers concluded the major finding after looking at a clinical database of a million people in the UK.

According to the researchers, the people who were prescribed two or more courses of certain types of antibiotics by their doctors for over a certain period of time tend to increase their chances of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in comparison to those who had never been recommended such antibiotics or they had just one course.

For the study, the research group looked at around 200,000 diabetic patients and the history of number of antibiotic prescriptions given to them at least one year prior to their diagnosis with the condition.

The number of antibiotics was then compared with another number of antibiotics that were prescribed to 800,000 non-diabetic people. All the participants belonged to same average age group.

It was found that both groups shared the same ratio of men to women. About 50 percent of the participants were prescribed antibiotics at some point of time during the study period. The researchers1376571961_antibiotics_2506419b found that the chances of developing diabetes grew with the number of antibiotics’ courses prescribed to the people.

The findings have, however, not made clear that how the repeated antibiotics use is associated with increasing diabetes risk.

“An imbalance in gut bacteria has been previously linked to the mechanisms behind obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes in animal and human studies,” said Dr. Ben Boursi, lead study author and researcher at the University of Pennsylvania.

The researchers, however, clarified that the study findings do not necessarily suggest that the antibiotics trigger diabetes. But the results do imply that the evident infections triggered by the antibiotics may be an alarming sign of diabetes.

The findings of the study were published in the European Journal of Endocrinology.
