Diabetes clearly increases the risk of one of various cardiovascular disorders, including heart attacks, hypertension, or stroke. To reduce the risk of heart disease, doctors will usually give medicine to restore the abnormal levels of blood fats.

Unfortunately, recent studies show medicine therapy to control blood pressure and lower blood sugar does not help prevent cardiovascular disease. In fact, medicine therapy in some cases cause side effects.

A decade ago, health officials in the United States conducted three studies to see whether the three types of intensive therapy to lower blood sugar, blood pressure or blood fats are effective for preventing heart attacks and strokes in diabetics (diabetes).

A study of the blood sugar was stopped two years ago when researchers look at blood sugar control treatment was not much effect. However, two studies are in progress.

In studies of blood fats (triglycerides) which is done by researchers from Columbia University and involving 5500 people with diabetes who also have the risk factors of other heart disease, namely hypertension and high cholesterol.

All the respondents received statins, cholesterol-lowering medication. Half of the respondents have triglyceride-lowering medicines and the rest a dummy medicine. Five years later the entire group of respondents known to have the same incidence of stroke and heart attack. This means that medicine therapy does not help much.

From the results of research, proven therapies that incentives by medicine-oatan is not able to reduce the incidence of heart attacks, although it is able to prevent a stroke. However, experts do not recommend people with diabetes to stop taking the medication without consulting their doctors.

So what should people with diabetes do? Stay focused on diet and healthy lifestyle and keep trying medications doctors recommended to reduce the risk of disease, according to Dr.Clyde Yancy, a cardiologist and president of the American Heart Association.

For people with diabetes,  they are advised to eat a varied diet in order to achieve a balance between carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Some have diabetes can control their blood sugar by eating only three meals a day and avoid sweet foods. While the rest need a strict diet.

To reduce the risk of heart disease, do the exercise because it increases blood flow through blood vessels smaller and increase the efficiency of heart pumping power.

Acai berry fruit has a very powerful antioxidant which could fight the damaging effects of free radicals that cause cell damage or decreased function of body cells and increase the risk of premature aging.

The fruit which comes from Central and South America is a favorite for the health and diet programs in the United States in recent years.

Acai berry is a natural source of antosianin. which is one type of very strong antioxidant, a pigment that can be found in the fruit berries, red wine, and other healthy foods. Antosianin also helps eye function vision especially at night.

In addition to a strong antioxidant, acai berries also contain essential fatty acids, amino acids and plant sterols which are compounds that resemble cholesterol. Sterols help to maintain a safe level of cholesterol in the normal range. Some compounds are also useful to help maintain prostate health and strengthen the immune system.

Dr. Perriconne Nicholas, one of the herbal health experts who frequently appear in the Oprah Winfrey Show, include acai berries in a list of 10 great foods that can make you look younger, healthier, and prolong life.

So far, it is known that the human tongue has the ability to taste five different tastes; bitter, sweet, salty, sour, and rich in protein (savory). Now scientists enters the sixth which is the taste of fat.

Researchers at Deakin University, working with colleagues from the University of Adelaide, discovered that the human tongue can detect the taste of fat. The people who are sensitive to the taste of fat tend to eat less, so they are not overweight.

Savory taste like ingredients for flavoring and high protein foods was found in August 2006 and was published in the Nature journal.

Meanwhile, in August 2008, genetic scientists Michael Tordoff also have discovered a sense of calcium that can be detected by tongue. This calcium taste like the taste of fresh water. But the taste of calcium is still a debate because people regard it is tasteless.

Deakin University researcher, Russell Keast, said that previous findings in the United States have used animal models to find the taste of fat.

“Interestingly, we also found that those with a high sensitivity to the taste of fat will be eating less so they have BMI (body-mass indices) lower than those who are less sensitive,” Keast said to Reuters, Thursday (11/3/2010).

The research team developed a screening procedure to test the ability of people to taste a variety of common fatty acids found in foods.

Researchers found that people who have a taste for fat varies. There are people with high sensitivity while others do not have at all.

According to Keast, fat which is easily obtained and commonly consumed for daily foods shows that the human taste system may be more sensitive from time to time.

Keast is interested in understanding why some people are more sensitive and others are not. He believes this will lead to ways that can help people reduce fat consumption and development on low-fat foods and diets.

Researchers say the discovery of fat taste could be the key to reducing obesity. The results of this study have been published in the last edition of the British Journal of Nutrition.

Eating an egg every day could provide 20 percent of the human daily consumption. After eating eggs people do not need to over-consume any other food.

A team of researchers who conduct research in the United States found that people who eat eggs have almost all the nutrients higher than those who do not consume eggs.

“The health benefits of is huge. So it is probably not an exaggeration to call it a super food. Eggs are the most nutritious foods from all food there is,” said Dr Carrie Ruxton, an independent dietitian and author of the report, as quoted from Dailymail, Wednesday (10/3/2010).
