Diabetes
and Vegetarianism
A
standard vegetarian diet could help diabetes sufferers,
particularly those type 2 patients seeking to avoid
insulin injections, and pre-diabetics worried about
developing the disease. The BDA (British Diabetic
Association) recommends a diet that closely matches
a vegetarian diet, due to the fact that eating this
type of food is loaded with fibre and complex carbohydrates.
In the body, this translates to a better metabolism
and perhaps lower blood sugar levels. Vegetarians
are typically thinner, with a better proportion of
muscle to fat, and not suffering from high bad cholesterol
levels
