Research progress in the diet of diabetes / 中国糖尿病杂志

ABSTRACT

It is widely accepted that diabetes is intimately linked to diet. The latest researches showed that diet-microbiota interactions acted as moderators of human diabetes. Gluten-free diet and hydrolyzed protein decreased the incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)by the mechanism of changes in gut microbiota and immune micro-environment. Consuming more dairy products decreased the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). High fat diet can induce insulin resistance (IR),thus increasing the incidence of T2DM. Parental dietary affected on offspring diabetes by the epigenetic mechanism. Low carbohydrate diet,dietary fiber and legumes were effective to the treatment of diabetes. Prediction of postprandial glucose level and treatment based on gut microbiota contributed to control the glucose of diabetic patients. An in-depth understanding of these mechanisms provides new ideas for the individualized and precise treatment of diabetes.
