Coffee & Tea drinkers more protected from diabetes
The fans turned out to coffee and tea have a lower risk of disease type 2 diabetes, the diabetes is not dependent on insulin and the type of diabetes is more common.
But the efficacy of coffee and tea to protect the body does not come from the caffeine contained in them. Proved that the non-coffee caffeine (decaf) have the best effect to ward off diabetes. Thus published in Archives of Internal Medicine, a medical journal published bi-monthly by the American Medical Association.
They based this conclusion on the results of 18 studies involving 500 thousand people. Results of analysis showed that people who drink tea 3-4 cups of coffee or tea per day lowered the risk of diabetes, 20 percent or more. Even if the drink is a non-caffeine coffee then the effect will be better ie more than 30 percent.
People with type two diabetes usually begins to feel a complaint at the age of 40 years and more so when the body does not produce the insulin the body needs precisely. Usually two types of diabetes is treated with a healthy diet and increasing physical activity. The drugs and sometimes insulin injections are also needed to address complaints diabetics.
The researchers believe the discovery of coffee and tea to counteract the active substance mengantung diabetes will open a new path in the basic steps to ward off diabetes mellitus. Moreover, if further studies confirm this, then your doctor may recommend that patients drink coffee or tea as he advised his patients to exercise regularly and maintain their weight.
The combination of data and analysis, researchers showed each additional cup of coffee is consumed cut diabetes risk by 7 percent. Head researcher from the University of Sydney, Australia, Rachel Huxley emphasized because research shows non-caffeine coffee better effect, the substance that prevents diabetes is not clear the caffeine.
Other components in coffee and tea, including magnesium and antioxidants, known klorogenik material which is capable of slowing the release of glucose into the bloodstream is suspected as the active ingredient that keeps a person from diabetes.
“Identification of the active component of these beverages will open a new way in preventing diabetes mellitus,” said Dr Huxley. By implication, the handling of people who have a risk of diabetes mellitus will be very different.
However, Dr Victoria King, of Diabetes UK experts argue that research results should be viewed cautiously. The problem, though people who drink tea and coffee are relatively lower risk of diabetes, should be seen also physical activity and diet in the study done.
“What is clear diabetes mellitus is very closely related to one’s lifestyle. Eat-healthy foods, high in fiber, avoid saturated fats and too much sweet food remains a major step away from diabetes to avoid,” he said.
Young Age
Recent data from the International Diabetes Federation show, Diabetes Atlas showed the that the 285 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes and more stout against the young. More than half of these are young people between 20-60 years.
The data also shows Indonesia entered the list of 10 countries suffer most dibetes, with India ranked first, both China and the United States third.
Persatuan Diabetes Indonesia (PERSADIA) projected that the number of diabetics in Indonesia will swell of about 24 million people in 2025. This figure increased almost twice the rate of diabetes patients currently about 12 million people.
Chairman of the Diabetes Association of Indonesia (PERSADIA) DR. Dr. Achmat Rudianto KEMD SpPD-diabetes problems in Indonesia will have a major impact on the economy if left unchecked. “Because the cost of diabetes treatment, especially if you have complications,” he said.
According to data from the Ministry of Health in 2008 found 5.7 percent of Indonesia’s population or 12 million people suffer from diabates. People who enter into pre-diabetic groups even reached 11 percent.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus occurs because the combination of defective insulin secretion and insulin resistance or reduced insulin sensitivity. As a result of insulin the body needs can not be absorbed and even wasted.
