Researchers at the U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention predict in a study published in the recent issue of Population Health Metrics that annual diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus incidence will increase from 8 cases per 1,000 in 2008 to about 15 in 2050.
James P Boyle and colleagues estimated that the total diabetes prevalence including diagnosed and undiagnosed cases will increase from 14 percent in 2010 to 21 percent in the United States adult population by 2050. This estimate is based on the assumption that incidence will be low and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
mortality is relatively high.
If type 2 diabetes mellitus continue to the researchers of the study, this increase in prevalence, and its mortality is relatively low, the prevalence of the disease will increase to 33 percent by 2050.
The researchers say the projected increases are due largely to the aging population, increasing numbers of members of higher risk minority groups in the population and longer life-span for people with diabetes.
Right now, the type 2 diabetes mellitus population is about 20 million and another 20 million people have pre-diabetes in the United States, according to government data.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with a range of health conditions including eye problems, heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, nerve damage, and stroke among others.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a disease commonly seen in Western or rich countries. The disease in many cases is preventable by following a healthy lifestyle.
What may help prevent type 2 diabetes mellitus, according to early studies, include Mediterranean diet, lots of green and leafy vegetables, breastfeeding, bitter melon, brown rice, black tea, drinking coffee, plant-based diet, physical exercise, soy products, black tea, vitamin D, turmeric, bitter melon, and fish oil. And what increase the risk include red meat, soft drinks and obesity.
Recently, Esposito K. at the Second University of Naples in Naples, Italy conducted a meta-analysis of data on dietary patterns and type 2 diabetes mellitus and found a healthy dietary pattern was associated with a 15 to 83 percent reduction in the risk of the disease.
The study was published in the Oct 19, 2010 issue of Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders.
Esposito meta-analyzed data from ten prospective studies of 190,000 subjects who were free of diabetes at baseline. The subjects were followed for 2 to 23 years during which 8932 cases of incidence type 2 diabetes mellitus were identified.
They found following a healthy diet can lead to a 39 percent reduction in the risk of type 2 diabetes mellittus. The reduction was 34 percent after other risk factors were considered.
According to the study report, a diet that may retard the progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus should include high amounts of fruit and vegetables, whole grains, fish, and poultry, and low amounts of red meat, processed foods, sugar-sweetened beverages, and starchy foods.
