Obesity and diabetes are increasing in prevalence worldwide. Despite excessive dietary consumption, obese individuals have high rates of micronutrient deficiencies. Deficiencies of specific vitamins and minerals that play important roles in glucose metabolism and insulin signaling pathways may contribute to the development of diabetes in the obese population. This paper reviews the current evidence supporting this hypothesis.
肥胖症和糖尿病在全球范围内的患病率正在上升。尽管饮食摄入过多,但肥胖个体的微量营养素缺乏率却很高。在葡萄糖代谢和胰岛素信号通路中起重要作用的特定维生素和矿物质的缺乏,可能会促使肥胖人群患糖尿病。本文综述了支持这一假说的现有证据。
