(Source: File Photo)People who consume food rich in antioxidants may observe a decrease in type 2 diabetes, reveals a new study. All the participants were free from diabetes risk at the time of inclusion in the study. The study published in Diabetologia, the journal of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes, noted that diabetes risk diminished with the increasing amount of antioxidant consumption among the participants. Women with the highest antioxidant scores had a reduction in diabetes risk of 27 per cent compared with those having the lowest scores. Another study, published in the journal Cell Metabolism, mentioned that even low calorie diet can reverse the risk of type 2 diabetes.
