Risks and dangers of excessive consumption of sodas and sugary soft drinks

When it is hot, especially in summer, we look refreshing drinks. We then tend to choose sodas or sugary sodas. But what are the risks and dangers associated with excessive consumption of such beverages? DocteurBonneBouffe made a point:

SWEET DRINKS: SUGAR MAIN SOURCE FOR OUR BODY

While in 1900 the average sugar consumption was about 2.27 pounds per person per year, at present, the statistics show that we consume about 81 pounds per person per year! An astounding finding, the consequences flowing into the world rise in obesity, increased diabetes type diseases, etc.

One of the main reasons for this high sugar consumption is partly the consumption of sugary soft drinks has exploded in recent decades. Thus, sugary drinks have become the main source of sugar in our diet, representing on average 10% of the daily energy needs of an individual (which is obviously too!).

RISKS RELATED TO EXCESSIVE CONSUMPTION AND SOFT DRINKS SOFT DRINKS SWEET RISK OF OBESITY

Beverages known as "fruity" provide no micro-nutrient (or vitamins, or minerals). Nutritive value of substantially zero, they contain mainly water and sugar added in the form of high fructose corn syrup. This is called a calorie "empty."

In addition, they bring us sugar quantity too high relative to our needs. An average of a single bottle of sugary drink 490 ml size (size), up to 12 teaspoons of sugar, representing a total of 200 to 240 calories! These drinks are true "liquid candy" so regular consumption of these drinks is a real problem facing the prevalence of obesity.

According to studies, consumption of at least one sugary drink per day in adults results in a 27% increase in the risk of obesity or overweight. While in children, the daily consumption of at least one sugary drink increases the risk of overweight 60%.

RISK OF DIABETES AND HEART DISEASE (CORONARY HEART DISEASE)

The consumption of sugary soft drinks is also linked to an increased risk of diabetes. According to studies, the consumption of at least one sugary drink per day for adult enough to double the risk of diabetes.

The consumption of these drinks is also associated with heart disease, such as heart disease that cause impairment of blood flow through the arteries obstruation. Thus, the consumption of at least one sweet drink per day for adults would result in a 40% increase in the risk of coronary heart disease.

RISK OF OSTEOPOROSIS

To fizz, industrial added in beverages phosphoric acid. This acid tends to burn our bowels and upset the balance of our organization, particularly in terms of calcium. However, calcium is necessary for our body to restore proper pH balance in the blood or strengthen our bones. Many studies have confirmed the link between the consumption of drinks' type Cola "and bone fractures (Journal of Adolescent Health, 1994). The presence of phosphoric acid can therefore lead to the weakening of the skeletal structure and thus to osteoporosis.

Diabetes, conventional wisdom and popular belief

"There is no difference between a diabetic insulin and non-insulin dependent diabetes"
Diabetic insulin is characterized by a lack of insulin secretion, whereas for non-insulin dependent diabetic insulin is secreted but it "works" evil. This translates into a difference of treatment and diet.

"Diabetes is a disease affecting the regulation of blood sugar. Since there is no sugar in butter, deli meats and oils, I can continue to eat regularly "
In view of the complications associated with diabetes (atherosclerosis, angina, myocardial ...), for the purpose of prevention, it is better to strongly limit this type of product without sugar but high fat and high in energy.

"I love chocolate and I can not live without it so I take the light chocolate contains less sugar"
Be curious to compare the nutritional values ​​of a chocolate "normal" and a chocolate "light", you will see that there are very few differences between the two products. So if you can not live without chocolate, buy chocolate "normal" (it's cheaper) and eat it in moderation (1-2 squares, 10 g to 20 g per day), with meals

"I am with type 1 diabetes (insulin-dependent) so I have to remove all sugars from my diet"
No, we must limit it is certain but never remove drastically because it leads to overconsumption of fats harmful for cardiovascular health.

"I'm diabetic insulin so I can not do sports because I risk hypoglycemia"
Physical activity and sport are recommended in diabetics as they allow for blood sugar regulation.
To avoid hypoglycaemia during the activity, simply to increase its intake of carbohydrates in the meal before or decrease the dose of insulin injected.

Diet for insulin-dependent diabetic

Insulin-dependent diabetes (or type 1) is characterized by a lack of insulin secretion. It affects mainly people under 20 years old and its treatment is to inject insulin subcutaneously at different times of the day (one injection in the morning and before each meal is the most common solution). A slightly adapted diet is necessary to avoid the appearance of more or less serious complications (hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, blindness, atherosclerosis, ...). It is characterized by a low glycemic index.

Diabetes: lifestyle advice

Make 3 meals a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner) + 1-2 snack (s) that is (are) optional (s) for an input of energy and regular and adequate carbohydrates during the day. And this to allow a maintenance of blood glucose within normal limits.
Consume 3-4 servings of dairy a day to have an adequate intake of calcium (bone turnover) and secondarily in good quality protein (renewal of all body tissues). These products will be little or no sweetened with table sugar. It will, against possible to use a sweetener (aspartame for example).

Consume 1 serving of meat or fish or eggs (OPV) for lunch and dinner for their intake of quality protein (renewal of all body tissues) and certain vitamins and minerals (iron, vitamins, necessary for the ... proper functioning of the body).

Eat starchy foods at every meal, preferring those rich in fiber (legumes, whole-grain bread, sound) and pasta. These foods will help a small increase in blood glucose after ingestion.

Consume 5-6 servings of vegetables (vegetables and fruits) raw and cooked daily for their low carbohydrate and fiber intake which limit the rise in blood sugar with food. And also vitamin C which has an anti-infective action that helps prevent complications.

Limit your intake of saturated fats (which promote the onset of cardiac complications) found in cheese, meat, butter, chocolate, mayonnaise, lard and tallow.
And favor unsaturated fats (which prevent the onset of cardiac complications) found in fatty fish (salmon, eel, mackerel, sardines) and vegetable oils (olive, canola, walnuts, soybeans).
In practice this amounts to a butter micro-shelf (about 10 g) at breakfast and 1 to 2 tablespoon (s) tablespoons of oil per person per meal. For fatty fish, a food frequency 1 to 2 times per week is recommended.

Limit or eliminate your intake of sugary foods (sugar cubes, powdered sugar, honey, candy, sweets, cakes, pastries, breakfast cereals and chocolate or honey or filled) as they cause a surge in blood sugar . If you consume take them during a full meal.

Limit your intake of table salt and hidden salt (the little dude !!! found in deli meats, cheeses, cooked dishes Trade, carbonated mineral water) because it is detrimental to the proper functioning of the cardiovascular system and can facilitate the passage of glucose into the blood.

Drink at least 2 liters of water per day on a regular basis because our body is composed of more than 70% water, water being the only essential drink.

Make at least 1 time a day at least 30 minutes of physical activity (brisk walking, dog walking, stairs, avoid taking the bus ...) or 3 times a week for at least 1 hour of sports (jogging, cycling, fitness, sports collective, ...). This will help you regulate your blood sugar.

Divide wisely carbohydrates based on insulin injections.

In case of illness (or other) which prevents to normal meals, continue injecting insulin and focus on carbohydrates in the form of purées, compotes, fruit juice, tea or sweet teas to avoid the appearance of 'ketoacidosis.

Diabetes and alcohol

Alcohol consumption is possible for the diabetic but should be moderate and be in accordance with certain rules.

The World Health Organization (WHO) distinguishes two types of alcohol consumption: the moderate use and harmful use. It defines the harmful use of alcohol as' excessive consumption to the point that it causes damage to health and often also undesirable social consequences ".

The Health Authority includes binge drinking (more than three glasses of wine per day for men and more than two glasses of wine per day for women), the risk factors for type 2 diabetes. In addition, lifestyle advice recommended in the treatment of disease recommend a reduction in alcohol consumption.

The effects of alcohol on the body are many and some of them will disrupt blood sugar regulation, and, particularly in diabetic patients. Alcohol disrupts the synthesis of glucose in the liver. The amount of glucose available will be limited. Then there is a significant risk of hypoglycemia. This risk will persist for several hours after consumption of alcoholic beverages. If this consumption is fasting, the risk of hypoglycemia increases.

Alcohol alters sensory perception. The signs of hypoglycemia may go undetected and thus constitute a significant risk to the patient.

In addition, a higher alcohol consumption to three glasses a day increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident (CVA). Diabetes is also a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Alcohol is not recommended in patients with diabetes.
Finally, it is also necessary to take into account the sugar in drinks such as cocktails or non-alcoholic beer, which has a larger amount than in a classic beer for example.

RECOMMENDATIONS ON CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL IN THE DIABETIC

The National Institute for Prevention and Health Education (INPES) and the Health Authority recommends moderate alcohol consumption, namely:
- In cases of regular consumption, no more than two standard drinks (or units of alcohol) per day on average for women and no more than three standard drinks a day on average for men.
- In the case of occasional consumption, no more than four standard drinks on a single occasion.

Finally, it is recommended to avoid alcohol at least one day a week.

These recommendations are intended for the general population but also apply to the diabetic patient. However, for the diabetic certain additional measures must be applied. Alcohol consumption should always be accompanied by a meal to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia. It is also necessary to adjust blood sugar based on their alcohol intake and monitor more frequently than usual.

Finally, all alcohols do not provide the same amount of sugar. Thus, we must focus on the so-called alcohol "dry" such as red or white wines, spirits or those containing a larger amount of carbohydrates, such as beer or sweet wines. Alcohol should not be consumed in excess in order to always be able to control his blood sugar.

Will the stem cells to cure or improve diabetes type 1 or 2. If so, when?

Theoretically, yes stem cells will cure diabetes and to improve. Type 1 diabetes is a destruction of the beta cells that produce insulin. If we are able to reproduce, to remanufacture the body itself is perfect and it particularly interesting. But it is very complicated because diabetes is an autoimmune disease, that is to say that there is an immune destruction. If replicated cells, there is no reason that they are not attacked again. In one animal is capable of reproducing these cells, but in humans it is necessary that this manufacturing cells is well regulated, because it should not have a flood of insulin, which can cause fatal hypoglycemic coma.

Therefore cells that normally function and then it is not necessary that disease recurrence. We are therefore in a big subject that is the same as transplant rejection, and other autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, is that we can manipulate the immune system to a tolerance of a transplanted external or tolerance of its own cells when they are attacked by the immune system. This is a subject that advance and is not unique to diabetes. This gives a lot of hope because there is a lot of financial resources and many researchers on this topic.

However the idea of ​​a semi-artificial pancreas is more likely and will probably be faster to implement. This semi-artificial pancreas can automatically regulate blood sugar for a sugar in the morning on waking satisfactory.

Foods that help to better support diabetes

Our health depends intimately on what is in our plate. Endocrinologists give us their nutritional advice for diabetics.

Vitamins and Trace Elements (Dietary mineral)

If there is no anti-diabetic food, we know that certain nutrients will better regulate the effects of this disease. They are different depending on the type of diabetes. Type 2 diabetes, the most common, is the most sensitive to food. It affects older people, but also more and more younger people are overweight. In this case, the rule is to restrict calories, avoiding foods high in sugar and fat, but taking three or four meals a day. We recommend to focus on vegetables, including endive, green beans, tomatoes, eggplants, which are low in calories and filled in fiber. Vegetables have virtues provide vitamins and trace elements and to slow the absorption of glucose. Protein foods must be as bold as possible: fish, poultry such as turkey, guinea fowl, chicken are best indicated but, in moderate amounts, beef or veal. However, the meat of lamb or pork should be avoided. The ideal is to cook grilled, steamed or in foil. It is recommended milk and low fat dairy products, which provide a significant source of protein and calcium. Whey has anti-diabetic properties due to a beneficial effect on insulin secretion.

Limit starchy

We advise to limit - but not eliminate - starches, bread, potatoes, pasta, that facilitate weight gain because they contain too much sugar. In 1 kg of bread, there is 500 g of sugar, and 1 kg of pasta or rice contains 700 g. Is preferable rye bread to white bread, black rice to white rice: they have a hyperglycaemic slower.

Fruit, yes, but not all !

Sugar, jam, honey and of course all sodas, sugary drinks and fruit juices should be avoided. All these foods release too much glucose, which will cause blood sugar spikes and seek the release of insulin promotes fat storage. Also, beware of canned and ready meals, which concentrate hidden sugars, and low-fat products, although low in fat but rich in sugar.
The fruits are necessary, but attention to their sugar content. Watermelon, apples, strawberries, raspberries, blackcurrants are welcome. But beware of figs, raisins or cherries.

The system is different in the case of those affected by type 1 diabetes the pancreas secretes more insulin and the subject loses weight. It must have a varied diet with meat and starchy foods, but monitored. Fast sugars (pastries, soft drinks, jams ...) are forbidden to him.

Cinnamon, this spice stabilizes blood sugar

In one generation, the incidence of type 2 diabetes worldwide has increased fivefold. This is a disaster.

While our contemporaries think they can "cure" chemical swallowing pills, the truth is that treating diabetes is mostly a disease of lifestyle.

The main way to prevent diabetes is a diet low glycemic index, ie based foods that do not turn too quickly into glucose, and therefore does not cause brutal insulin spike.

But eating more cinnamon may also reduce your risk of diabetes, helping you to stabilize your blood sugar.

The BEST antioxidants

Cinnamon is one of the most antioxidant-rich plants in the world with an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbency Capacity, a measure of antioxidant capacity in vitro) of 267.536, which is huge (one hundred times the grenade!).

She has been a near-reverence in most major civilizations for its warm, sweet taste and subtle aroma - which adds much to the pleasure of eating.

Cinnamon helps to stabilize blood sugar by stimulating insulin receptors and increase their sensitivity to this hormone that lowers blood glucose (sugar level in the blood). In response, the body needs less produce insulin to cause the same effect. This relieves the pancreas, stimulates metabolism, and reduces inflammation.

Cinnamon contains 0.5 to 1% of powerful essential oils known for their anti-microbial factors, very effective in stopping the growth of bacteria and yeast, including Candida albicans.

Cinnamon has three major oils which contain active compounds called cinnamaldehyde, cinnamyl acetate and cinnamyl alcohol. The cinnamic aldehyde has been studied by researchers for its ability to block the issuance of inflammatory agents in the cell membrane.

As if that was not enough, the only scent of cinnamon powerfully stimulates the brain regions of concentration and memory.

Treat your friends

Do not hesitate to sprinkle cinnamon many of your dishes.

If it is customary in Europe and North America, using cinnamon to sweet preparations (in cookies, apple pies on, compotes, on ice, in chocolate desserts) is Unlike in North Africa and East, where it is in savory dishes that it is the most widely used, particularly with meat and poultry (think delicious Moroccan pastilla).

Cinnamon powder resents overcooking. It is best to add it after cooking, unlike sticks that are more resistant to long cooking.

Put cinnamon in your dishes will delight your guests, because it is a stimulant of the salivary glands and gastric mucosa. Your guests will also be happier after your meal as cinnamon helps digestion, the expulsion of gas and calm the spasms of the stomach and intestines.

Cinnamon keeps cool, protected from light and sealed to reduce oxidation of its powerful nutrients. Cinnamon powder keeps 6 months, cinnamon sticks about a year. If your cinnamon has no sweet smell, you will unfortunately discard and replace.

What cinnamon choose?

Cinnamon, before being pulverized, is in the form of longitudinally wound rod as cigarette paper. This is actually pieces of dried bark of the cinnamon tree, a tree of the tropical parts of Asia.

The most popular are those cinnamon Ceylon and China, which produce different cinnamon from one to another.

Ceylon cinnamon is tan and rods are made of very thin layers. Chinese cinnamon is of a darker red color and the rods are thicker. The latter also has a more bitter taste less sweet.

The main difference between the two is the content of coumarin. Coumarin thins the blood and cinnamon China, also called "Brain" is much stronger coumarin and should be used in moderation compared to the true Ceylon cinnamon.

Half a teaspoon of cinnamon day is enough to reap all the benefits mentioned in this letter.

And finally, a little story ...

"Take a good bloody sheep neighborhood ..."

In the Encyclopedia Britannica, it is written that cinnamon was once more valuable than gold. It is true that Moses prescribed the use of cinnamon in the manufacture of the holy oil, and that King Solomon himself used it in his precious perfumes. Cinnamon was also the largest source of profit for the Dutch merchants of the East India Company (who knew it), but I doubt that this statement on gold and cinnamon of the Encyclopedia Britannica, which also not cite his sources, is accurate.

Anyway, my story is not from there but from Herodotus, the Greek historian who lived in the 5th century BC (it was he who told in his stories that the ancient Egyptians did everything backwards, and particularly how they urinate According to him, the men urinated sitting, standing women; it has nothing to do with cinnamon but it struck me when I read it, adolescent).

In ancient times, therefore, cinnamon was imported by caravans from mysterious and remote regions of Asia. Herodotus, who had never gone so far and wondered why cinnamon was so dear, had made explain it by a merchant joker:

According to him, no human knew whence cinnamon. By cons, large birds sewed in their nests flank too steep cliffs to be achieved by man.

The collection of this unique herb therefore required to charge large pieces of meat which, deposited at the foot of the mountain, were swept away by the great birds to their nests. Too fragile to support the extra weight, they collapsed, finally delivering their precious materials to harvest!

Reverse Causes of Diabetes

There are three types of diabetes: type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes. In all three cases, without treatment, the level of sugar (glucose) amounts in the blood.

Type 1 diabetes is diabetes affecting more young people. It is due to the destruction of pancreatic cells that produce insulin.

Type 2 diabetes occurs mainly in overweight people after 40 years. It is due to a resistance of the body to insulin, the hormone no longer able to return the sugar into the cells.
Gestational diabetes is diabetes that occurs only during pregnancy. Women who suffer are subsequently higher risk of type 2 diabetes.

Diabetes affects millions of people worldwide. If there are no promises of healing, it is possible to avoid the complications of this chronic disease.
