Cold can help fight type 2 diabetes. This conclusion was made by scientists from Maastricht University in the Netherlands.
“Our results are promising and might improve the treatment of metabolic diseases. In future studies, we plan to evaluate the effects of cold on adults with type 2 diabetes,” study author Adam Sellers quoted the agency as saying.Reedus».
According to a study presented at the European Diabetes Association Annual Meeting in Stockholm, repeated chills induced by cold exposure lowered the mean fasting plasma glucose concentration (from 5.84 to 5.67 mmol/L), lowered blood pressure and by 6 % improves glucose tolerance. To investigate the impact of low temperatures on health, experts exposed 15 overweight or obese volunteers to cold exposure for ten days.
