Summary:

Type 2 diabetes is a growing problem for the developed and developing countries, and it is a burden on healthcare systems as well as individuals. Nutraceuticals, Glycemic Health and Type 2 Diabetes primarily focuses on the nutraceuticals that assist in preventing and managing prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. The book gives an overview of glycemic health and highlights the use of novel and upcoming nutraceutical ingredients, such as bioactive peptides; traditional herbs from China, India, and Mexico; resistant starches; cinnamon; chromium; and others. After the successful commercial application of bioactive peptides as nutraceutical ingredients in the management of blood pressure, companies are now focusing on peptides for the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes. Resistant starches in the clinical studies have demonstrated to reduce the glycemic and insulin response and increasing insulin sensitivity. These and other nutraceuticals that are supported by scientific and clinical studies are highlighted. The editors and contributors are experts in their respective fields and are largely from the university, industry, and government. Nutraceuticals, Glycemic Health and Type 2 Diabetes will be useful as a standard reference book for all those concerned with the role of nutraceuticals and glycemia in the prevention and control of type 2 diabetes.

The following are some of the topics incorporated in this book: Glycemic concept, nutraceuticals, and functional foods for prevention and management of type 2 diabetes, Emerging nutraceuticals, such as bioactive peptides, minerals, resistant starches, antioxidants, and traditional herbs, International panel of authors (physicians, dietitians, researchers, and scientists) brings authority and balance to coverage.
