Abstract

Kao rezultat modernog načina prehrane i stila života, s vremenom je došlo do pojave raznih kroničnih bolesti koje predstavljaju vodeći uzrok smrtnosti, a među njima je i dijabetes tipa 2. Kod naših predaka iz paleolitika ovakve se bolesti nisu manifestirale, stoga je uočena važnost prehrane na koju je čovjek genetski prilagođen. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati utjecaj paleolitičke prehrane u trajanju od 3 mjeseca na antropometrijske i metaboličke parametre te na zadovoljstvo kvalitetom života kod osam ispitanika s dijabetesom tipa 2 i procijeniti prihvatljivost takvog načina prehrane. Ispitanici su nakon provedene prehrambene intervencije smanjili tjelesnu masu, razinu HbA1c, razinu ukupnog, LDL i HDL-kolesterola, ali povećali razinu triglicerida. Povećalo se zadovoljstvo tjelesnim i psihičkim zdravljem, a prehrana se pokazala prihvatljivom s obzirom na zdravstveni utjecaj, lakoću pridržavanja, stupanj sitosti, ukusnost, smanjenu potrebu za slatkom hranom te osjećaj općeg zdravlja i blagostanja.

Abstract (english)

As a result of modern dietary patterns and lifestyle, many chronic diseases presenting main causes of death have appeared in time, including type 2 diabetes. Our Paleolithic ancestors did not manifest these diseases, so the importance of diet for which human beings are genetically programmed has been noticed. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of the Paleolithic diet on anthropometric and metabolic parameters and satisfaction with the quality of life in eight participants suffering from type 2 diabetes, as well as to estimate the acceptability of these dietary patterns for a period of three months. After nutritional intervention has been carried out, participants have achieved a reduction in body weight, level of HbA1c, level of total LDL and HDL cholesterol, but also an increase in the level of triglycerides. An increase in satisfaction with physical and psychological health has been noticed, and the diet hab been proven acceptable in terms of health impact, ease of adherence, satiating effect, overall taste, decreased desire to eat sugary foods and general level of health and wellbeing.
