There will be 1.3 billion people suffering from diabetes in the world. Research forecasts: patients | diabetes | the world by 2050
An American study predicts that by 2050, the number of patients with diabetes in the world will double compared with 2021, reaching about 1.3 billion, and the number of patients in all countries will increase. The research report was published this week in the Lancet journal in the UK.
Research shows that the substantial increase of diabetes patients in the next 30 years will be mainly reflected in the increase of type 2 diabetes, including the increase of obesity rate and the change of population composition.

The latest US study believes that early and limited daily diet can help prevent diabetes
There is a Chinese saying, "Eat good breakfast, have full lunch, and eat less dinner.". A new study in the United States supports this claim. Researchers propose that eating within 8 hours after getting up early every day and not eating at other times can effectively control weight and blood sugar and reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Obesity may cause a variety of health problems, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, etc., but obesity can be prevented. According to the press release released by the University of Georgia, the team of the University of Georgia has comprehensively analyzed a number of scientific research literature and found that the number of times of eating every day is related to the risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Reducing the number of meals, eating regularly, and not eating midnight snack are obviously beneficial to health, especially the plan that the eating time window starts in the morning.
Researchers said that human beings have been in a state of food shortage for most of the time in history. In recent decades, the multi meal diet pattern of three meals a day plus Dim sum plus sufficient calories will overload insulin receptors for a long time, which is likely to lead to decreased insulin sensitivity and increased risk of diabetes. Multiple meals can also lead to metabolic disorders in the body, hinder the normal operation of gut microbiota, and prevent the body from utilizing fat reserves, making it difficult to lose weight.
Researchers have found that a timed diet provides the body with sufficient rest time and helps maintain a healthy metabolic pattern. In different time limited dietary plans, skipping breakfast can easily lead to a decrease in overall dietary quality, while skipping dinner has a smaller impact on dietary quality and is more likely to reduce overall calorie intake. Therefore, placing the dietary window from morning to noon has the best effect. It is very important to stick to a high protein, low sugar breakfast.
The study also shows that other dietary restrictions, such as fasting every other day, fasting twice a week, and fasting for multiple consecutive days, have few health benefits and may even have more drawbacks than benefits. The relevant papers have been published in the international journal Nutrients.
