Diabetes Update: Nutrients help

kids manage and avoid diabetes

Omega-3s and leucine promote

insulin production

In type 1 diabetes, which usually occurs in

the young, the pancreas does not produce

enough insulin to metabolize food properly

because the immune system mistakenly

attacks beta cells in the pancreas that pro-

duce insulin. This study followed 1,316

youth, aged one to 20, who had been diag-

nosed with type 1 diabetes for at least 10

months, and who had tested positive for the

beta cell immune antibody.

Doctors added foods rich in the omega-3

fatty acids EPA and DHA, and the amino acid

leucine, to the diets. For two years,

researchers measured how much insulin par-

ticipants produced. Although they still need-

ed supplemental insulin, doctors said the

chances of diabetic complications were lower

because the children continued to produce

some of their own insulin.

7, 1842-50

Omega-3s reduce insulin resistance

About half of obese children are insulin

resistant, meaning the insulin they produce

does not metabolize food efficiently. In this

study, 201 obese and insulin-resistant chil-

dren took 1,800 mg of omega-3s, or 500 mg

of the blood-sugar control drug metformin,

per day. Metformin helps reduce insulin

resistance in type 2 diabetes. The children

were similar in age, insulin resistance, and

body mass index scores at the start of the

study.

After 12 weeks, while there was little

change in the metformin group, children

who had taken omega-3s had much lower

circulating levels of glucose and insulin, indi-

cating less insulin resistance.

For lipids, metformin raised HDL, and low-

ered LDL—the good and bad cholesterols,

respectively—but total triglycerides were

unchanged. The omega-3 group had signifi-

cantly lower levels of triglycerides, reducing

chances of developing type 2 diabetes, doc-

tors said.

For body mass index scores, those in the

metformin group saw a slight improvement

while children in the omega-3 group had sig-

nificantly lower, and healthier, body mass

index scores.

Men’s Health: Nutrients may

keep prostate cancer from

recurring, and support healthy

prostate

Higher folate levels may lower

chances for cancer to recur

The body needs folate to make and repair

DNA, and low folate levels may contribute to

cancer, but results from earlier prostate can-

cer studies have been mixed. Doctors in this

study wanted to find a link between circulat-

ing levels of folate and cancer recurring by

following 135 men with prostate cancer who

had the prostate gland removed.

Doctors measure prostate specific antigen

(PSA) levels to help determine if cancer may

be recurring, since stray prostate cells can

later metastasize in lymph or bone.

Compared to men with lower levels, men

with higher folate levels before surgery were

58 percent less likely to have signs of cancer

recur.
