If you have type 2 Diabetes or pre-diabetes, you\u2019re probably bombarded with advice on what to eat and what not to eat.<\/p>\nIf you have type 2 Diabetes or pre-diabetes, you\u2019re probably bombarded with advice on what to eat and what not to eat.<\/p>\n
But a new study presented at the American Heart Association\u2019s Scientific Sessions 2017 reveals that what you eat matters less than how you eat. <\/p>\n
In fact, eating the right way can prevent \u2013 even cure \u2013 diabetes and remove the worst type of body fat\u2014the type around your waist.<\/p>\n
Metabolic syndrome involves chronically high blood sugar, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or fats in your blood and excess fat stored around your waist.<\/p>\n
If you have this condition and you don’t adopt aggressive lifestyle changes, you will almost certainly develop heart disease and type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n
Japanese scientists assessed 642 men and 441 women who did not have metabolic syndrome at the beginning of the study in 2008. They had an average age of 51.2.<\/p>\n
They split them into three groups:<\/p>\n
–\tFast eaters
\n–\tNormal eaters
\n–\tSlow eaters<\/p>\n
\u2026and examined them five years later to see which of them were the healthiest.<\/p>\n
They discovered that the faster the participants ate, the more weight they gained around their waists and the higher their blood glucose became.<\/p>\n
1.\t11.6% of fast eaters developed metabolic syndrome.
\n2.\t6.5% of normal eaters developed metabolic syndrome.
\n3.\tOnly 2.3% of slow eaters developed metabolic syndrome.<\/p>\n
