Drinks containing sugar are unhealthy and therefore not suitable for diabetics. And lemon juice, cola, and others increase the risk of death for these people, as a recent Harvard study found. On the other hand, coffee, tea, water and even milk have a life-prolonging effect, according to what was reported by the “German VietBook” website about the study.
More than 500 million adults worldwide will be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2021, and the number is expected to rise to 783 million by 2045, according to a Harvard University study that Published in the scientific journal “British Medical Journal”.
It is also known that nutrition plays a major role Diabetes treatment. To date, little research has been done on selection drinks for treatment. To fill in this knowledge gap, the Harvard researchers drew on data from 15,486 adults (74 percent female; average age 61) who were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes between 1980 and 2018. The data was taken from another medical study.
Beverage consumption was recorded using a validated dietary questionnaire updated every two to four years, and included sugar-sweetened soft drinks, soft drinks without sugar, fruit juices, and fruit juices.coffee tea, low-fat milk, whole milk, and plain water. During an average follow-up of 18.5 years, the researchers recorded 3,447 cases of cardiovascular disease and 7,638 deaths. So what is the effect of drinks on the time of death?
After considering various lifestyle factors, it turns out that the love of coffee in particular is paying off for diabetics. According to the researchers: Daily coffee consumption (up to six cups!) reduces the risk of premature death by 26 percent, 21 percent lower with black tea consumption, 23 percent lower with water, and 12 percent lower with low-fat milk.
Interesting is that Diabetics Those who started drinking coffee or tea only after being diagnosed with diabetes reduced their risk of dying early by 18 percent. In other words: coffee, tea, milk, and of course water, are the best options for diabetics when it comes to beverages.
Sugary drinks greatly increase the risk of death
The situation is different with sugary drinks. When consumed daily, it increases the risk of death by up to 29 percent, which is very high, according to the researchers involved, but it was expected. However, some questions remain. So why?Add milk And sugar to coffee or tea affects the effect? Does low-fat milk with cocoa have the same effectiveness?
But, one thing is for sure for diabetics, chatting over coffee (without eating cream cake, of course) is one of the healthiest leisure activities for diabetics and therefore scientifically recommended.
