6 May 2008 The health benefits of eating fruit and vegetables are already well known but now a new study has found that fruit and vegetables may also reduce your risk of developing type 2 diabetes, depending on what type and how you eat them. Americans researchers from the Harvard Medical School and associates studied more than 71,000 women aged 38 to 63 years to determine the link between the development of type 2 diabetes and the consumption of all fruits and vegetables, specific groups and fruit juices. The women did not have heart disease, diabetes or cancer when the study started and were followed for 18 years, during which time they completed a food questionnaire every four years. The results, published in the 4 April Diabetes Care ahead of print, show that while increasing total fruit and vegetable consumption may not reduce diabetes risk, eating more whole fruit and green leafy vegetables can. The researchers found that an increase of three servings a day of whol...

29 July, 2008 By Alice Coubrough A greater intake of fruit and vegetables may decrease the risk of diabetes, according to research. The study showed that a higher plasma Vitamin C level, and to a lesser extent fruit and vegetable intake, were associated with a decreased risk of Type 2 diabetes. Findings were based a population based cohort study of men and women aged 40-75 years who lived in Norfolk, England. Mean age of the study population was 58 (9.2) years and 21,831 men and women were included in the analysis of the 12 year study. The study showed a strong, inverse relationship between plasma vitamin C level and the risk of developing diabetes. The potential risk of developing diabetes was 62% lower for those in the top quintile of plasma vitamin C, compared with those in the bottom quintile. A similar association was shown between plasma vitamin C and diabetes in participants who had a haemoglobin A1c level of less than 7%. A weaker inverse association was found b...

3 Reasons to Eat Chia Seeds By Andrew Weil , Dr. Weil is clinical professor of medicine at the University of Arizona and director of its Program in Integrative Medicine. Q: "My friend told me that chia seeds are good for you and are loaded with omega-3s. Is this true?" A: Yes, it certainly is. The word chia often conjures visions of those terra-cotta figurines that, when slathered with chia seeds, grow green "hair." In reality, these healthful, edible seeds are a better source of omega-3 fatty acids than flaxseed (the fats protect against inflammation and heart disease). Chia seeds come from the desert plant Salvia hispanica, a member of the mint family that grows in southern Mexico. In pre-Columbian times, chia seeds were a component of the Aztec and Mayan diets and the basic survival ration of Aztec warriors; they even played a role in religious ceremonies. Supposedly, 1 tablespoon of the seeds could sustain a person for 24 hours. The Aztecs also ...
