加拿大拉瓦尔大学研究人员日前发现,草莓和蔓越莓多酚类物质可改善超重和肥胖人群胰岛素敏感性,进而降低该类人群患糖尿病的风险。该项研究结果目前发表于英国《营养学》杂志上。早期研究显示,日常生活中增加水果和蔬菜的摄入量可降低2型糖尿病的发病率,尤其是浆果类。基于此,研究人员猜想浆果类如草莓和蔓越莓多酚类物质是否会影响胰岛素敏感性、 Researchers at Laval University in Canada recently discovered that strawberry and cranberry polyphenols can improve insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese people, thereby reducing the risk of developing diabetes in this population. The results of the study is currently published in the British “Nutrition” magazine. Earlier studies have shown that increasing daily intake of fruits and vegetables can reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes, especially berries. Based on this, researchers speculated whether berries such as strawberry and cranberry polyphenols would affect insulin sensitivity,
