Multi-level analysis of the gut–brain axis shows autism spectrum disorder-associated molecular and microbial profiles - Nature Neuroscience Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by heterogeneous phenotypes. Disruption of the gut–brain axis (GBA) has been implicated in ASD although with limited reproducibility across studies. In this study, the authors propose a framework to leverage multi-omic datasets and investigate how th...

Hearing loss tied to diabetic neuropathy in T2D A study in the Journal of the Association of Physicians of India found that the prevalence of hearing loss was significantly higher among patients with type 2 diabetes who had moderate to severe neuropathy, compared with those who had mild neuropathy. The severity of hearing loss also worsened along...

Gut Bacteria Linked to the Buildup of Fatty Deposits in the Heart Researchers in Sweden have uncovered a link between the levels of oral bacteria residing in the gut and the buildup of fatty cholesterol deposits in the heart’s blood vessels – a major cause of heart attacks.

What Microplastics Might Be Doing to Our Intestines Using human intestinal organoids — small bundles of tissue made from a mix of human cells obtained from biopsies — researchers have found that high concentrations of microplastics can trigger inflammation of the bowels.

Gene linked to leukemia found to decrease insulin production in diabetics With the incidence of type 2 diabetes increasing alarmingly, science is looking to genetics to better understand the processes underlying this chronic illness. A new study has isolated a gene not previously associated with diabetes that seems to lead to the pancreatic dysfunction that causes the…

And, next should follow research into the link with worsening levels of diabetes (since the late 1970s when these sugar replacements became the recommended go-to for diabetics).

Non-caloric artificial sweeteners modulate conjugative transfer of multi-drug resistance plasmid in the gut microbiota Non-caloric artificial sweeteners have been widely permitted as table sugar substitutes with high intensities of sweetness. They can pass through the intestinal tract without significant metabolization and frequently encounter the gut microbiome, which ...

Both Potatoes and Beans Reduced Insulin Resistance, Weight Randomized trial showed similar effects on insulin resistance and weight after 8 weeks of a potato-based or bean-based diet.

Really not that new... Already when I wrote and published (2009) my Avoid Diabetes book series, there were many clear research data pointing into that direction.

Data suggest low-carb diet may promote T2D remission A study conducted at a medical practice in the UK found about 20% of patients with Type 2 diabetes who followed a low-carbohydrate diet were able to achieve drug-free remission, researchers told the Diabetes Professional Care 2022 conference. Patients with a more recent diagnosis were more likely to...

Study links plant-based diet to reduced T2D risk Following the Portfolio, DASH and Mediterranean eating patterns was associated with a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes among postmenopausal women, according to research published in .

Reducing Simple Carbs in Your Diet Might Relieve Acid Reflux, Study Finds A new study found that reducing simple sugar intake can improve GERD but experts say you don't need to fully eliminate these to see benefits.

For those of us familiar with the 6-Phase Table of Dr. Reckeweg from the field of Homotoxicology (a specialty field of Homeopathy and bridge to allopathic medicine) this comes as expected.
Within the the progressive stages of inflammation from phases 1 through 6, diabetes as diagnosed by mainstream medicine, falls into phases 5 and 6.

Organ-specific metabolic pathways distinguish prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, and normal tissues Diamanti et al. map the proteome of five key metabolic tissues of 43 healthy, prediabetes (PD), and type 2 diabetes (T2D) multi-organ donors. The exploration of tissue-specific biological processes indicates that pancreatic islets show multiple biological alterations in PD, while other tissues demo...

Study: Mindfulness linked to lower A1C in people with T2D Mind-body practices, particularly yoga, were associated with reducing A1C levels in people with Type 2 diabetes, according to a meta-analysis published in the . On average, study participants saw an A1C reduction of 0.84%, with those practicing yoga experiencing a reduction of 1%.

Successful T1D outcomes seen with AI system One-year data on patients with type 1 diabetes who used Diabeloop's DBLG1 system revealed they experienced less time in hypoglycemia and more time in their target blood sugar range. The CE mark-certified tool for continuous glucose monitoring uses an artificial intelligence algorithm to analyze the....

Study predicts T1D prevalence could double by 2040 An analysis of data from the predicted the number of people with type 1 diabetes worldwide could double by 2040, according to a study presented at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes 2022 Annual Meeting and published in . Data showed about 8.4 million people were living with type 1 di...

Researcher discovers a muscle that can promote glucose and fat burning to fuel metabolism for hours while sitting From the same mind whose research propelled the notion that "sitting too much is not the same as exercising too little," comes a groundbreaking discovery set to turn a sedentary lifestyle on its ear: The soleus muscle in the calf, though only 1% of your body weight, can do big things to improve the....

This is an insulin pill, and it could end the need for painful injections.

Researchers at the University of British Columbia designed them to be dissolved between the gum and the cheek, rather than swallowed.
In rat tests, they found that nearly 100% of their dissolvable insulin reached the rodents’ livers and almost none was found in their stomachs. This insulin was also faster-acting than other in-development tablets, which tend to release insulin slowly over several hours.
