One study claims that the type two diabetes is another reason, which was not previously thought: Experts say a lack of vitamin A may contribute to the development of the disease.
The most important element of type two diabetes, insulin resistance, the pancreas, the insulin-producing beta cells can not function properly. The disease can have many serious complications, like loss of sight or limbs can lead to uncontrolled diabetes - type in The Journal of Biological Chemistry journal entitled.
Dr. Lorraine Gudas, lead author of the recently published research, the Weill Cornell Medical College researcher, according to development of the disease in a previously examined evidence may play a role: Vitamin A accelerates the activity of beta cells, such as vitamin deficiency the normal functioning of cells lead to a decrease.
The vitamin or vitamins, beta-carotene contributes to the health of cells , mostly for cell growth, the proper functioning of the immune system or to support vision. Vitamin A and beta-carotene can be found in meat, poultry, dairy products, yellow, and orange vegetables and fruits.

| Vitamin A Deficiency Causes Diabetes |
for research experiment mice beta cell development they studied. one of the two groups of mice were genetically modified so that the animals are not able to store vitamin A in the other group members, no adjustments have been made. It was found that the vitamin A storage incapable alone (that is where so Vitamin deficiency formed) body quickly died out of the beta cells, and the animals were unable to produce insulin. When the researchers healthy mice are also deprived of the vitamin, beta-cell destruction they also started. As a result of decreased insulin production and blood glucose levels were increased. However, the addition of vitamin-rich food such harmful effects could be reversed reversed.
"We are not yet fully aware of the mechanisms that are due to a lack of the vitamin causes the destruction of the beta cells, but it is clear that this vitamin huge role in pancreatic health preservation" - said dr. Gudas.
Experts say, these results later development of new drugs based on biochemical properties of vitamin A can lead.
