News summary

A recent study from University College London reveals that increased consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF) significantly raises the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, with a 17% increase in risk for every 10% rise in UPF intake. It was found that replacing UPF with minimally processed foods can lower diabetes risk by up to 18%. Superfoods, such as dark leafy greens, berries, whole grains, and nuts, are recommended for managing blood sugar levels due to their nutrient density and low glycemic indices. Excessive sugar intake contributes to various health issues, including insulin resistance, obesity, and cognitive decline, further heightening the risk of diabetes. Individuals are encouraged to make healthier food choices by incorporating more nutrient-rich and less processed foods into their diets. Overall, dietary habits play a crucial role in managing diabetes and overall health.
