Strawberries are one of those fruits that apart from being very good, hide secrets that benefit the health of people, and in our case of those who are in a situation of prediabetes and want to stop that process.Recently we have known two new studies, one from Brigham and the Hospital Medicine School / Harvard of Women, and another from the Illinois Technology Institute, confirming that eating strawberries regularly can reduce risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
The first study, "Strawberry polyphenols and insulin resistance: a dose-response study in obese individuals with insulin resistance" found that when obese adults with insulin resistance consumed different amounts of strawberries, their glucose peakIt was reduced with less insulin.
Meanwhile, in the 75th scientific sessions of the 2015 of the American Diabetes Association, Dr. Howard Sesso of the Brigham Hospital presented a study in which the strawberry intake was related to the A1C hemoglobin, and the risk of developing diabetes in women.He studied examined the data of more than 37,000 non -diabetic age women.At the beginning of the study, women reported how often strawberries.More than a decade later, more than 2,900 women developed type 2 diabetes. Compared to women who ate rarely or never strawberries, those who ate at least 2 portions of strawberries each week had a 19% smaller risk of developing diabetes.
In addition, Harvard researchers analyzed the A1C hemoglobin of women, a high blood sugar -level marker.The women who ate more strawberries were less likely to have a high A1C hemoglobin of more than 6 percent.
In summary, the consumption of strawberries, moderately, can be advisable for a person who is in a previous situation of type 2 diabetes or even suffers from the disease.Good partners for the diet of people who take care of their health, although the season of these delicacies in the field has ended a few weeks ago.We will wait for the next month to launch the consumption of strawberries that lasts until mid -June.
