Coffee Could Contribute to Diabetes

Mon, 11 Apr 2011
Drinking coffee can affect the development of type 2 diabetes .

Caffeine may interrupt glucose metabolism and contribute to type 2 diabetes development and inadequate control of type 2 diabetes, so research has highlighted.

This intimates that those who drink a lot of caffeine are more susceptible to needing home care.

This review article published in the Journal of Caffeine Research contradicts prior research which suggested that caffeine has protective qualities.

Several studies have emphasised how caffeine can increase insulin resistance in those who are not diabetic .

Moreover, in adult type 2 diabetics, the increase in blood glucose levels witnessed after eating is heightened when accompanied with a caffeinated drink.

Diabetics need to control their caffeine intake in order to reduce their risk of cancer and dying.

Another study recently discovered that diabetes is related to an 11 per cent increased chance of mortality in women and a 17 per cent increase in risk of dying in men.
