Design

A systematic search and meta-analysis was carried out on cohort and case control studies and clinical studies that could provide data for eating nuts and connection with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) or certain types of cancer.

Studies

The studies in question included epidemiological studies (case control and cohort) or clinical studies that reported a connection between the consumption of nuts and the outcome of DM2 or certain types of cancer. This meta -analysis comprised 36 observation studies with a total of 30,708 people from the general population that were observed between 4.6 and 30 years.

target parameter

nut consumption vs. Diagnosis with DM2 or cancer

important knowledge

people in the highest category of nut consumption had a significantly lower relative risk (RR: 0.76), endometrium cancer (RR: 0.58) and pancreatic cancer (RR: 0.68) compared to people in the lowest category in the lowest category. Overall, the consumption of nuts was significantly associated with a reduced risk of cancer (RR: 0.85; 95 % confidence interval: 0.76–0.95). No significant connection with other specific types of cancer or DM2 was found.

practice implications

This meta-analysis is the first of its kind to summarize the available evidence of the connections between the consumption of nuts and the occurrence of cancer. The most relevant result is the 15 % reduced risk of cancer as a whole for those with the highest nut consumption compared to those with the lowest.
that there is no connection between nut consumption and diabetes is surprising. In a number of articles, Kendall and colleagues report that nuts, in particular almonds, 1.2 and pistachios, 3 have a low glycemic effect, a low effect on postprandial serum glucose levels and a dose -dependent effect on the insulin reaction. of nuts with a lower content of inflammatory cytokines and a higher oboneectine level. Together, these and other effects in connection with the consumption of nuts indicate that consumption could reduce the DM2 risk. The lack of a connection in these results is in contrast to other reviews that indicate that there is a reverse relationship between diabetes and eating nuts.
to advise patients to eat more nuts can cause a significant difference in their health.
The health benefits of nuts go beyond cancer prevention. Earlier studies have shown that consumption of nuts can reduce the risk of a heart disease, 8 sudden cardiac death in men 9 and women, 10 and the risk of developing gallstones in men 11 and women. Body weight to have insulin resistance or energy balance.
In past editions of the magazine for naturopathy we have checked studies that have reported a connection between the consumption of nuts and a lower risk of nuts Heart disease , stroke , Alzheimer disease , erectile dysfunction and Total mortality . This new study provides evidence that we could use to justify patients to say that eating nuts can also reduce their risk of cancer.
to advise patients to eat more nuts can cause a significant difference in their health. A good recommendation for patients is that you should eat 1 to 1.5 ounces nuts four to five times a week.
