To be included participants had to be free of diabetes have delivered a live single baby and completed a validated food frequency questionnaire on dietary habits during the first four to five months of pregnancy.
The new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that growing reliance on a few food crops may also accelerate the worldwide rise in obesity heart disease and diabetes
This has helped fuel a growing global epidemic of obesity and chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

#Study shows yogurt consumption reduces the risk of type 2 diabetesnew research published in Diabetologia (the journal of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes) shows that higher consumption of yoghurt compared with no consumption can reduce the risk of new
-onset type 2 diabetes by 28%.%Scientists at the University of Cambridge found that in fact higher consumption of low-fat fermented dairy products which include all yoghurt varieties
and some low-fat cheeses also reduced the relative risk of diabetes by 24%overall.
Lead scientist Dr Nita Forouhi from the Medical Research Council (MRC) Epidemiology Unit at the University of Cambridge commented this research highlights that specific foods may have an important role in the prevention of type 2 diabetes
or low fat) and diabetes had inconclusive findings. Thus the nature of the association between dairy product intake and type 2 diabetes remains unclear prompting the authors to carry out this new investigation using much more detailed assessment of dairy product consumption than was done in past research.
The research was based on the large EPIC-Norfolk study which includes more than 25000 men and women living in Norfolk UK.
and drink consumed over a week at the time of study entry among 753 people who developed new-onset type 2 diabetes over 11 years of follow-up with 3502 randomly selected study participants.
This allowed the researchers to examine the risk of diabetes in relation to the consumption of total dairy products and also types of individual dairy products.
or total low-fat dairy was associated not with new-onset diabetes once important factors like healthier lifestyles education obesity levels other eating habits
Total milk and cheese intakes were associated also not with diabetes risk. In contrast those with the highest consumption of low-fat fermented dairy products (such as yoghurt fromage frais
and low-fat cottage cheese) were 24%less likely to develop type 2 diabetes over the 11 years compared with non-consumers.
which makes up more than 85%of these products was associated with a 28%reduced risk of developing diabetes.
A further finding was that consuming yoghurt in place of a portion of other snacks such as crisps also reduced the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
While this type of study cannot prove that eating dairy products causes the reduced diabetes risk dairy products do contain beneficial constituents such as Vitamin d calcium and magnesium.
In addition fermented dairy products may exert beneficial effects against diabetes through probiotic bacteria and a special form of Vitamin k (part of the menaquinone family) associated with fermentation.
therefore helps to provide robust evidence that consumption of low-fat fermented dairy products largely driven by yoghurt intake is associated with a decreased risk of developing future type 2 diabetes.
#Gastric bypass improves insulin secretion in pigsthe majority of gastric bypass patients mysteriously recover from their type 2 diabetes within days before any weight loss has taken place.
A study at Lund University Diabetes Centre in Sweden has shown now that the insulin-producing beta cells increase in number and performance after the surgery.
Type 2 diabetes develops when the body's insulin-producing beta cells stop working or when the body is not able to use the insulin that the cells produce.
and undergo a gastric bypass operation recover from their diabetes within days of the procedure.
The group at Lund University Diabetes Centre found that the pigs'beta cells improve their insulin secretion.
since it also helps the further refinements of surgical methods says Jan Hedenbro surgeon at Aleris Obesitas who has collaborated with Lund University Diabetes Centre on the project.
The researchers hope that the findings could lead to new methods of treatment for type 2 diabetes in the future.

when chronic is associated with diabetes obesity cardiovascular disease and cancer. Prof Aedin Cassidy from UEA's Norwich Medical school led the research.
This is one of the first large-scale human studies to look at how these powerful bioactive compounds might reduce the risk of diabetes.
Laboratory studies have shown these types of foods might modulate blood glucose regulation--affecting the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Insulin resistance a hallmark of type 2 diabetes was assessed using an equation that considered both fasting insulin and glucose levels.
High insulin resistance is associated with Type 2 diabetes so what we are seeing is that people who eat foods rich in these two compounds--such as berries herbs red grapes wine-are less likely to develop the disease.
--which is associated with many of today's most pressing health concerns including diabetes obesity cardiovascular disease and cancer.
What we don't yet know is exactly how much of these compounds are necessary to potentially reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes she added.
so we should be cautious until we test them properly in randomised trials and in people developing early diabetes.
#How fiber prevents diabetes, obesityscientists have known for the past twenty years that a fiber-rich diet protects the organism against obesity
and diabetes but the mechanisms involved have eluded so far them. A French-Swedish team including researchers from CNRS Inserm
They will give rise to new dietary recommendations to prevent diabetes and obesity. Most sweet fruit and many vegetables such as salsify cabbage or beans are rich in so-called fermentable fibers.
and are less likely to develop diabetes than animals fed a fiber-free diet. Nevertheless the mechanism behind this effect has remained until now a mystery.
In response the brain triggers a range of protective effects against diabetes and obesity: the sensation of hunger fades energy expenditure at rest is enhanced
and were protected also against the development of diabetes thanks to significantly increased sensitivity to insulin.
these mice became fat and developed diabetes like those fed a fiber-free diet. It is therefore the production of glucose by the intestine from propionate and butyrate that is behind the positive effects of fermentable fibers on the organism.
