A study has said that type 2 diabetes may improve just by introducing high-fiber diet in our daily life. The study was conducted by researchers at the Rutgers University-New Brunswick.
According to a report in Science Daily, the promotion of a select group of gut bacteria by a diet high in diverse fibers could lead to better blood glucose control, greater weight loss and better lipid levels in people with type 2 diabetes. After a rigorous study of six years, it was found out at eating the right dietary fibers could rebalance the gut micro biota or the ecosystem of bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract that would eventually help digest food and are important for human health.
Speaking about this, the researchers said, Our study lays the foundation and opens the possibility that fibers targeting this group of gut bacteria could eventually become a major part of your diet and your treatment. Type 2 diabetes develops when pancreas makes little insulin or when the body doesn`t use insulin well. Many bacteria break down carbohydrates, in the gut and produce short-chain fatty acid, which provides nourishment to the gut lining, reduce inflammation and help to control the appetite. The shortage of short-chain fatty acids leads to the type 2 diabetes and other diseases. As per several studies increase in dietary fiber intake could lessen type 2 diabetes. But the effectiveness of the dietary fiber intake could vary due to the lack of understanding of the mechanisms.
