The Diabetes prevention and strategy

"The Brd2 gene is a promising new target in diabetes prevention. Researchers succeeded in preventing diabetes in high risk groups by inhibiting the activation of the gene. Activating the gene seems to trigger sugar cravings and promote hunger, in order to meet the brain’s high energy demands. ..........Researchers studying the gene concluded, 'The strong influence of Brd2 on insulin resistance suggests that inhibiting Brd2 is a promising target for diabetes prevention and treatment.' ..........

The study of nutrients that influence gene expression is a promising new field in diabetes prevention, called nutrigenomics. It’s basically a natural form of gene therapy.

But unlike conventional gene therapy that chemically alters the DNA, nutrigenomics influences how a gene is expressed. Nutrients are used to turn genes on or off, depending on the desired effect. It’s a safe and effective method in disease prevention and treatment.

By inhibiting the Brd2 gene, nutrigenomics succeeds where conventional treatments fail…preventing sugar spikes, improving fasting glucose levels, and restoring insulin sensitivity."
