In a notable study, researchers have found that selenium intake can reduce diabetes risk in men.
Researchers at the University of Montpellier, France, established that high plasma selenium concentrates in foods like nuts could slash dysglycemia incidence--pre-diabetic state associated with insulin resistance.
Lead researcher, Tasnime Akbaraly, University of Montpellier said, “Our results showed that for elderly males, having (blood) selenium concentrations in the top third of the population was significantly associated with a lower risk of developing dysglycemia over the following nine years.”
