insulin-resistance genotype Explanation: Creo que puede ser esto.... Por tanto, parece que el sistema inmune está diseñado para luchar eficazmente contra las infecciones y para proporcionar ciertas ventajas de supervivencia durante los períodos de ayuno intermitente, frecuentes en nuestro pasado. Induciendo una resistencia a la insulina en el músculo, los sustratos energéticos se reservarían así para el metabolismo neuronal. Ante la presencia de un genotipo de resistencia a la insulina, y una occidentalización del medio (dieta rica en carbohidratos, un aumento de la grasa saturada, baja en fibra y sedentarismo), un genotipo de alta respuesta citoquínica contribuirá a un empeoramiento de la resistencia a la insulina y, finalmente, a la diabetes mellitus tipo 2 y la aterosclerosis (...) Therefore, it seems that the immune system is designed to fight infections effectively and to provide certain survival advantages during periods of intermittent fasting so frequent in the past. By inducing a resistance to insulin in the muscles, the energy substrates would thus be reserved for neuronal metabolism. In the presence of an insulin-resistance genotype and a westernization of the environment (carbohydrate-rich diet, an increase in saturated fat, low fibre and sedentary lifestyle), a genotype with a high cytokine response will contribute to a worsening of the resistance to insulin and, finally, to type 2 diabetes mellitus and atherosclerosis. http://www.grupoaulamedica.com/web/nutricion/pdf/Supl012002/... |
