Supplementation with omega-3 plus vitamin E and zinc plus vitamin C on metabolic syndrome components in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes
Authors
Abstract:
Background: The aim of this study was to find the influence of supplementation with omega-3 plus vitamin E and vitamin C plus zinc on metabolic syndrome components. Methods: In a double-blind controlled clinical trial, 75 diabetic postmenopausal women were randomly assigned to one of the three therapeutic groups of daily supplementation of 1.8g omega-3 plus 400mg vitamin E (group A), 5mg zinc plus 300mg vitamin C (group B), or placebo (group C) for 12 weeks and the results were evaluated. Results: One-way repeated measures ANOVA showed that systolic and diastolic blood pressure and waist circumference showed significant difference before and after the intervention (P= 0.0001, 0.001, and 0.045, respectively). Results of Univariate ANOVA showed that the level of plasma fasting blood sugar (FBS) and HDL-cholesterol significantly increased (P=0.01 and P=0.03, respectively) in patients who had been diagnosed as diabetic ≤7 years in group B. The plasma TG concentration significantly decreased (P=0.007) in patients who had been diagnosed as diabetic ≤7 years in group A. Systolic and diastolic BP significantly decreased (P=0.005 and P=0.04, respectively) in patients who had been diagnosed as diabetic ≤7 years in group A. The most effectiveness of nutraceutical supplementation was on patients that had been diagnosed as diabetic ≤7 years. Plasma TG and systolic BP decreased with omega-3 plus vitamin E; however, plasma FBS and HDL- cholesterol increased with zinc plus vitamin C supplementation. Conclusion: Several factors, such as duration of diabetes, age, gender, pathophysiology status, genetic, and other anthropometric characteristics may influence the effectiveness of supplementation.

Vitamin D Deficiency is Associated with the Metabolic Syndrome in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes
Background and Objectives: There is convincing evidence that subjects concomitantly affected by type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic syndrome (MeS) are at greater risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Many metabolic derangements in T2D might be attributed to poor vitamin D status. The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations among vitamin D status, MeS and glycemic status in su...

full textEffect of Vitamin E and omega 3 fatty acids in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications have been implicated in hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress. Antioxidants can improve glycemic control, lipid profile, and cognitive functions. We assessed the effect of Vitamin E and omega 3 fatty acids (OFA) on the above parameters. One hundred patients with type 2 DM receiving metformin 500 mg and glimepiride 1 mg were randomized to receive add...

Introduction: The stress-oxidative is involved in doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity. Due to the potential and previous reported for antioxidant properties of atorvastatin, omega-3, vitamin E and vitamin C, their efficacy to prevention of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity was investigated in this study. Methods: Fifty-six male rats were divided into 8 groups which received omega-3, atorvastati...
