Sipping tea may help reduce your risk of type 2 diabetes, according to a recent analysis of 18 studies involving a total of 457,922 participants. The analysis also indicates that drinking coffee may protect against type 2 diabetes, a disease predicted to affect about 380 million people worldwide by the year 2025.

Researchers found that study members who drank more than three to four cups of tea daily had a one-fifth lower diabetes risk than those who drank no tea. The researchers theorize that certain compounds in tea (including antioxidants and minerals) may help ward off diabetes.

Past research shows that green tea and black tea in particular may help fight diabetes. Another natural substance, cinnamon has also been shown to guard against diabetes by keeping blood sugar levels in check.

Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight, getting regular exercise, and following a fiber-rich diet are all considered crucial in lowering your diabetes risk.

A combination of curcumin (a compound found in the curry spice turmeric) and piperine (a substances derived from black peppers) could help protect against breast cancer by targeting stem cells, according to a recent study.

In lab experiments, scientists discovered that applying curcumin and piperine to breast cells helped decrease the number of stem cells (which are known to promote tumor growth) while having no effect on normal cells. By limiting the number of stem cells, the study’s authors suggest, it may be possible to inhibit tumor growth.

In past research on animals, curcumin has been found to help reduce risk of progestin-accelerated breast cancer (a type of breast cancer thought to be particularly common among women receiving a combined estrogen and progestin hormone replacement therapy).

Other studies indicate that curcumin may help lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, cataracts, and skin cancer.

The pointless ocean moans on top of each conventional mathematics.

New research shows that an extract of pine bark may benefit people in the early stages of diabetic retinopathy. A leading cause of blindness among people with diabetes, diabetic retinopathy occurs when leaky blood vessels damage the retina (a light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the inner eye).

For the study, researchers treated 46 diabetic patients with daily doses of the pine bark extract (called Pycnogenol) or a placebo tablet for three months. All patients had early-stage retinopathy, which is marked by swelling resulting from capillaries leaking fluid into the retina.

Study results showed that 18 of the 24 participants treated Pycnogenol had improvement in their vision, while no such improvements were observed in the placebo group. What’s more, all 22 patients in the placebo group maintained the same swelling they’d had at the start of the study.

The study’s authors suggest that pine bark extract may help stimulate circulation in the retina and inhibit swelling, which in turn may improve vision.

A long-practiced Chinese therapy similar to acupuncture, acupressure stimulates certain points on the body in order to improve the flow of vital energy (called “chi” or “qi”) and, in turn, enhance wellbeing. Unlike acupuncture, however, acupressure involves the application of manual pressure (typically with the fingertips) rather than the insertion of needles.

For the study, 64 people with type 2 diabetes were treated with standard diabetes medications and assigned to a diet and exercise program designed to control hypertension and hyperglycemia. A subset of study members also received a 90-minute session of acupressure therapy four to six times per week.

At the end of the three-year study, participants who’d received acupressure had significantly lower levels of total cholesterol and LDL (“bad”) cholesterol – as well as higher levels of HDL (“good”) cholesterol – compared to patients who didn’t receive acupuncture. What’s more, patients in the acupuncture group showed improvements in diabetes-associated kidney function and neuropathy (a nerve disorder common among people with diabetes).
