Type 2 Diabetes and Mineral Water

Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes is frequently associated with both extracellular and intracellular magnesium deficits and Magnesium supplementation may help control glycemic response among type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. Studies with animal models and interventional studies using hydrogencarbonate and magnesium supplements suggest a probable positive effect of drinking water and mineral water in particular on glycemic parameters.
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic endocrinological disorder characterized by high blood levels of glucose due to insufficient secretion of insulin by the pancreas or improper utilization of insulin by target cells. Diabetes is associated with serious complications and premature death. The major therapy option in diabetes mellitus is lifestyle management. Besides exercise, weight control and nutrition therapy, oral glucose lowering drugs and insulin injection are the conventional therapies for the disease.

The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, pre-diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance and metabolic syndrome has increased considerably worldwide. Making lifestyle changes including a healthy diet and sufficient physical activity of 150 min a week, which should result in a weight loss of at least 7%, is the most effective way to reduce the risk of developing diabetes by an estimated 34–43%. A healthy diet should include beverages with low sugar and calorie content, but not diet (artificially sweetened) beverages, because habitual consumption of sugar sweetened drinks, sweetened-milk beverages and diet beverages is associated with higher type 2 diabetes risk.

While some dietary minerals including Cr, Mg, Ca, Mn, K, Zn, and Se play a key role in physiological processes related to DM, hydrogencarbonate and magnesium supplements has positive effect in particular on glycemic parameters
