Pumpkin: A fairytale end to insulin injections?
Compounds found in pumpkin could potentially replace or at least
drastically reduce the daily insulin injections that so many diabetics
currently have to endure. Recent research reveals that pumpkin extract
promotes regeneration of damaged pancreatic cells in diabetic rats,
boosting levels of insulin-producing beta cells and insulin in the
blood, reports Lisa Richards in Chemistry & Industry, the magazine of
the SCI.

A group, led by Tao Xia of the East China Normal University, found
that diabetic rats fed the extract had only 5% less plasma insulin and
8% fewer insulin-positive (beta) cells compared to normal healthy rats
(Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 87(9) 1753-7 2007).

Xia says: 'pumpkin extract is potentially a very good product for pre-
diabetic persons, as well as those who have already developed
diabetes.' He adds that although insulin injections will probably
always be necessary for these patients, pumpkin extract could
drastically reduce the amount of insulin they need to take.

David Bender, sub-dean at the Royal Free and University College
Medical School, London, says: 'this research is very exciting... the
main finding is that feeding pumpkin extract prevents the progressive
destruction of pancreatic beta-cells... but it is impossible to say
whether pumpkin extract would promote regeneration in humans.' He
added: 'I think the exciting thing is that this may be a source of a
medication that could be taken by mouth.'

The protective effect of pumpkin is thought to be due to both
antioxidants and D-chiro-inositol, a molecule that mediates insulin
activity. Boosting insulin levels has the effect of lowering blood
sugar levels, which reduces levels of oxidative oxygen species that
damage beta-cell membranes, preventing further damage and allowing for
some regeneration. Beta cells levels in the diabetic rats are,
however, unlikely ever to reach that of controls, because some of the
cells will have been damaged beyond repair.

Diabetes affects more than 230m people, almost 6% of the world's adult
population, according to the World Diabetes Foundation. The rats used
in this study represent type I diabetes, but the researchers believe
the pumpkin extract may also play a role in type II diabetes.

Description


D-chiro-Inositol is a white powder. It is found throughout many living
systems but commonly in legumes, beans and other plants in a
monomethylated or glycosylated form. It is also found in more complex
structures in micro-organisms.

Yep, they would *hunt and gather* seeds and sow them, then they would
*hunt and gather* the produce, then they would *hunt and gather* wood
to cook it with.

I assume you are joking.
They don't even do that today in the undeveloped countries. Racists don't
believe that.

Man is an omnivore and ALWAYS was.

In the temperate and colder climates man was closer to being a pure meat
eater. You live in a little cloistered world. You have no idea what the
forests or plains are like north of the 45th much less the 23rd. People who
don't know that need an education.

No.

However, eating less food, down to the optimal amount thereby losing
the VAT does cure MetS and possibly even type-2 diabetes.

Be hungry... be healthy... be blessed:

Interesting. Looks useful in slowing the progression
of type 1 as well as being useful in T2 DM.
And it looks like the isolated form available
to someone. This could be vastly more
useful than simply cutting out simple sugars
like someone else suggests. T1 DM isn't caused
by excess simple sugars.

I had a distant uncle who was Cro-Magnon. We still have one of his diaries.
He wrote a lot about inventing spears and clubs but it doesn't say anything
about sowing anything.

Wiser to make the reduction in food intake across the board rather
than singling out an essential macronutritient for reduction.

It is the world's great lie that compells folks to do the latter:

I am the omnivore with the one exemption. I can not eat the raw plant
starch. And what about you?
