Role of ascorbic acid in diabetes mellitus: A comprehensive review

Abstract: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a multifactorial disease with no one specifi c drug available to treat. Th e main causes of DM Type 2 are insulin resistance and decreased insulin production. Oxidative damage to beta cells due to reactive oxygen species is a trusted cause of DM2. Vitamins are a class of nutrients required in miniscule quantity. Vitamin C is one of the most powerful dietary antioxidant available, closest in structure to carbohydrate. Vitamin C and glucose competitively inhibit each other to penetrate … Show more

“…Thus, doses of vitamin C will boost insulin sensitivity and endothelium function in diabetics or individuals expressing vitamin C deficiency [59]. Vitamin C prevents sorbitol accumulation and glycosylation of proteins and thus reduces the microvascular complications of T1DM and T2DM, such as retinopathy, nephropathy, and diabetic foot [60]. In a study, administration of vitamin C alone or combined with vitamin E reduced blood glucose and increased superoxide dismutase and glutathione levels, resulting in reduced insulin resistance by lowering oxidative stress [61].…”

“…Hubungan asupan karbohidrat dengan gula darah puasa memiliki r sebesar 0,465; artinya memiliki korelasi yang sedang. 16,28 Vitamin C atau asam askorbat adalah vitamin larut air dan juga berperan sebagai antioksidan yang kuat. Vitamin C bekerja dengan cara mendonasikan elektronnya kepada lemak radikal guna mengakhiri reaksi rantai pada proses peroksidasi lemak.…”

“…16 Berdasarkan penelitian sebelumnya, diperlukan asupan vitamin C sebanyak 500 mg per hari untuk dapat menurunkan kadar gula darah puasa. 28 Penelitian yang dilakukan memperoleh hasil bahwa secara statistik tidak terdapat hubungan asupan vitamin E dengan kadar gula darah puasa (p=0,467). Hal ini dikarenakan rerata asupan vitamin E subjek tergolong kurang, hanya mencapai 9,18 mg per hari, sedangkan kebutuhan minimal vitamin E menurut AKG 2013 adalah 15 mg per hari.…”
