Dietary Antioxidant Capacity is Inversely Associated with Diabetes
Biomarkers
http://www.vitasearch.com/CP/weeklyupdates/
Summary:
In a study involving a random sub-sample of subjects (551 men, 467
women) from the ATTICA study (randomly selected men and women from
Attica in Greece), dietary intake of antioxidants was found to be
associated with improved glycemic markers, suggesting that consumption
of antioxidant-rich foods may protect against the development of
diabetes.
The dietary antioxidant capacity of the diet was based on values for
foods measured by: ferric-reducing antioxidant power, total radical-
trapping antioxidant parameter, and Trolox equivalent antioxidant
capacity.
Inverse associations were found between FRAP (ferric-reducing
antioxidant power) and log-glucose, log-insulin, and log-HOMA-IR, even
after adjusting for age and energy.
The authors conclude, "Although more prospective studies are required,
the data presented support the view that dietary modification towards
higher consumption of antioxidants should be implemented in public
health strategies, in order to better control glycemic markers in
individuals, and prevent the development of diabetes at the population
level."
