Antioxidants are essential when diabetes

This is because antioxidants such as vitamin A, E and C, retard the aging process by fighting the degeneration and death of cells caused by free radicals

Mexico .- Eating a food source rich in vitamins and antioxidants can promote the health of those suffering from diabetes, then add to pan a controlled portion of fruits and vegetables, following the recommendations of a specialist, reduces oxidative stress generated by free radicals (oxidation of cells).

This is because antioxidants such as vitamin A, E and C, retard the aging process by fighting the degeneration and death of cells caused by free radicals.

So the body’s inability to neutralize the free radicals we are exposed daily demands of us consume foods with antioxidant properties are needed to counteract oxidative stress.

Our body is particularly rich in antioxidants due to the enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione, which are important defense in the oxidation of cells exposed to oxygen, he said the doctor at the National Institute of Genomic Medicine (INMEGEN), Maria Elizabeth Tejero Barrera.

But in a patient with diabetes, presenting a metabolic imbalance, oxidative stress appears to be GenF20 Plus Scam higher and may lead to negative effects such as oxidation in cells, proteins, lipids, or fats, said the specialist.

“Studies indicate that diabetes is associated with the oxidation of cells and therefore the patient needs to consume antioxidants that support control of symptoms due to impaired glycemic” explained Tejero Barrera.

He explained that we can find antioxidants in fruits, vegetables and some seeds such as sesame, walnut and other oil type that suggest an important content of vitamin E, a compound involved in the process of antioxidant balance.

Another of equal value is vitamin C found in guava and citrus. “The ideal is to eat these foods raw without exposure to high temperatures, as opposed to those subjected to heat will not tend to decrease their property,” advised the doctor.

On the amount of food for these patients, said it is necessary to assist with a nutrition expert to give it a proper diet based on unprocessed products, so that the body metabolism can incorporate these components.

But he stressed that all patients should be cautious when choosing antioxidants, and often associated with nutritional supplements and is not yet known which have the same positive effect as natural foods.

Coping with oxidative stress does not mean that consideration should be consumed higher amounts of antioxidants, “a pre-assessment is essential to know the parameters of the individual,” Barrera reiterated Tejero.

Likewise, said that drugs that offer this option presents different combinations of nutrients, and may cause some side effects.

Tejero Barrera, who has participated in research on obesity, recalled that oxidative stress exists in all people, but there are diseases like diabetes that accelerate cellular aging process. The best vehicle for good control is to get adequate food, play a sport and supplemented with drugs to keep stable blood glucose levels.
