ALTERNATYWNE MODELE ¯YWIENIA W CUKRZYCY TYPU 2.

The number of type 2 diabetes diagnoses is constantly increasing. Lack of physical activity as well as consumption of high-calorie and low in fiber processed food leads to weight gain, which in turn increases the probability of getting type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the recommended diet therapy in the case of this illness should consist of low glycemic index and loss of excessive weight. In the recent years an increase in popularity of alternative diets has been observed, as they are viewed as not only a way to lose weight but also as a treatment for chronic illnesses. Alternative diets can have many promising benefits, however it is important to continue thorough research to ensure the safety of adhering to such diets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
