New Delhi, 5 June (IANS). According to a study, how is our blood sugar reaction after meals, it can indicate the risk of metabolic health as well as predeabitates. Especially after the consumption of carbohydrates, this thing becomes more important.
Researcher of Stanford University in the US reported that the interior in blood sugar response between individuals was associated with specific metabolic conditions such as insulin resistance or beta cell dysfunction. Both can be the cause of diabetes.
Research published in Nature Medicine states that this discovery in blood sugar response can lead to personal prevention and treatment strategies for personalized pre diabetes and diabetes.
Genetics professor Michael Snider at Stanford Medicine said, “This study suggests that not only have many types of predeeds, but also that your special type of type can determine what you should eat and what not.”
In the study, 55 participants performed a metabolic test for insulin resistance and beta cell dysfunction, which did not have type 2 diabetes disease. Participants were also subjected to multi-oomics profiles, including triglyceride levels, metabolites in blood plasma, measurement of liver function and test of gut microbiom data.
About half of the participants, ie, 26, were suffering from pre -diabetes. That is, he was on the verge of being diabetes. The result revealed that in many participants, after eating rice or grapes, blood glucose level increased, even if they had metabolic health.
The reaction of blood glucose to the highest amounts of resistance starch such as potatoes and pasta was different based on the metabolic dysfunction of the participants. Participants whose blood sugar level increased after eating after eating was more likely to have high blood pressure.
Comparing blood glucose response to potato vs grapes was associated with insulin resistance. This ratio can act as a real-world biomarker for future insulin resistance.
“Such a biomarker will be useful, as insulin resistance has an effect of lifestyle and drugs, which can reduce the risk of diabetes in high -risk individuals. There is no easy way to identify it in clinics.”
Researchers also found that eating fiber or protein before eating rice reduced glucose spikes in blood and eating rice before eating rice delayed glucose spike peak.
However, these changes in blood glucose response were made only in healthy participants with metabolic health who were sensitive to insulin or whose beta cell was functioning normally.
