Whole grains may lower prediabetes risk: Study

摘要

A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition shows that eating whole grains may be associated with a decreased risk of pre-diabetes. In a prospective population-based study, the researchers investigated whether a higher intake of whole grain protects against the development of pre-diabetes and type-2 diabetes. The study included 5,477 residents from Stockholm, Sweden, ages 35-56 without diabetes who kept food diaries of how much whole & refined grains they ate. Researchers measured blood glucose in study participants and followed up 10 years later.
