Studies from the U.S. and Japan suggest that the risk of developing type 2 diabetes increases if one sleeps badly at night
- The level of physical activity is 39 percent lower, if you only get to sleep 5.5 hours with a normal 8.5 hours each night.
- The risk of developing type 2 diabetes is five times higher, if you sleep less than 5 hours at night, instead of more than 7 hours.
Headache Pills cure inflammation
A chronic inflammation of the overfilled fat cells suspected of causing type 2 diabetes. Common headache tablets of aspirin type can be a new cure for type 2 diabetes. Aspirin is namely based on aspirin which inhibit inflammatory reactions.
Steven Shoelson at the Harvard Medical School in Boston, USA, tested the effect of the substance salsalate, which is similar to aspirin, in an attempt to obese patients, who were one developing diabetes. For a month, a third of patients placebo, while the rest were treated with salsalate. Both groups ate the same sugary.
New research suggests that a healthy gut flora can keep diabetes at bay. After implantation of feces from lean, healthy subjects, nine obese men cured of type 2 diabetes.
With an unusual experiment showed scientist experiments showed researcher Max Nieuwdorp at the Academic Medical Centre in Amsterdam, Holland, in 2012 the species composition of our intestinal flora can affect whether we develop type 2 diabetes or not.
He made a 'faecesimplantation in nine obese men who showed signs of diabetes. Subjects received feces from foreign, slim and healthy persons registered in the gut. This was already after six weeks the composition of the intestinal flora of patients changing. Concurrent they experienced a marked improvement in their symptoms of type 2 diabetes.
As we have become more cleanly and fights infections with antibiotics, we affect the intestinal flora, creating an imbalance in metabolism. Therefore, it is certainly not just our own bad lifestyle but also the lifestyle of intestinal bacteria deeds that we are developing type diabetes.
Feces transmitted by endoscopes
The endoscope with 20-30 ml of feces from a donor is taken to the patient's rectum.
The foreign stool "good" bacteria work their way into the intestines, where they outcompete the patient's own "bad" bacteria.
Fight cancer with biotechnology
February 1, 2013 - Cancer is the second leading cause of death in Cuba, after cardiovascular diseases. In the run up to World Cancer Day on February 4 this report examines how Cuba has followed WHO recommendations, implement a comprehensive national program of cancer control. To support the plan, there has been a significant investment in biotechnology. Cuban scientists and researchers have recently made great progress in the search for new cancer treatments and tools to improve diagnosis and prevention.
